Pay entire fee in full at time of hire.

This is required if your services cost less than $800 and ideal for folks who 1) can afford it 2) want it checked off their list — no balance payment on the horizon

Those able to afford to pay in full have the option to contribute to a scholarship fund that offsets the cost for those who cannot. It is an opportunity to participate in a more equitable future.

This is for cost of services over $800.

A booking deposit of $800 is due at hire, and the balance is due at 34 weeks pregnant (1 month before your due date) or 1 month before your photo sesh.

Through Upstart you can apply for financing to cover some or all of the cost of services.

This is third-party financing as a personal loan. You can see if you are approved through a short process on their website with a soft credit check. According to their current terms, there is not a credit score/history minimum to qualify*

If you use Upstart, a couple things: I’ll need proof that you were approved, and absolutely gotta use those funds to pay for services in full at time of hire; this is a kindness for us both —you won’t lose track of those funds and I won’t be tracking you down for payment.*

*I’m sharing this info in plain language, but please view Upstart’s website for perfectly accurate and comprehensive info

I have a sliding scale available to anyone who asks. I trust you to use this scale and choose the option that makes sense.

Basically, if you use the sliding scale and when I come to your home you have a McMansion, I’m going to be really disappointed in you.
