Services & Investment

Absolutely! I’m based in downtown Vancouver and love traveling for sessions and events.

Local & Regional Sessions: Travel within a 1-hour drive or anywhere across the Lower Mainland is included at no extra charge. For locations further out—such as Pitt Meadows, Chilliwack, and broader areas of the Fraser Valley—a standard travel surcharge applies.

Destination Weddings & Events: For out-of-province or international events, please inquire directly so we can discuss the specific details and travel expense coverage.

Outfit choices set the tone for your images, and the focus will always be on capturing you authentically.

Complimentary Styling Guide: To make preparation seamless, every session booked includes a comprehensive styling guide filled with tips, color palettes, and visual examples to help you build your look with confidence.

Colors & Textures: Neutral tones and earthy shades photograph beautifully in natural light and keep the focus on real emotion rather than clothing. Natural fabrics and subtle textures—like flowy dresses, quality denim, or cozy knits—add depth without visual distraction.

Seasonal Essentials: Dress comfortably for the weather. Lighter layers work best in warmer months, while structured coats, knits, and practical pieces keep you comfortable in cooler seasons.

Virtual Stylist Add-On: If you’d like extra support crafting your vision, I partner with virtual stylists who can do a deeper dive, curate personalized options, and help you finalize every detail.

While I do not provide hair and makeup services personally, I highly recommend professional application to enhance your confidence and the final look of your images. I have a curated list of trusted local artists I’ve worked with who specialize in photography-ready styling. I am more than happy to provide these recommendations and offer advice on look-and-feel based on your chosen location. Many of these professionals offer on-site services and can travel directly to you for a seamless experience.

The sweet spot is usually between 28–34 weeks. At this stage, your bump is beautifully defined, but you’re still comfortable enough to move and pose easily. Waiting until later in pregnancy can sometimes feel uncomfortable, and early on the bump may not be as visible. Scheduling during this window helps capture that glowing, radiant stage while keeping the session relaxed and enjoyable.

Newborn, preferred to do within the first month. Before all the little changes happen.

These shoots are typically done in home with natural light. I do not typically use props unless specifically requested.

These photos are a forever memory and time capsule of this blur. Babies first home.

Life and weather are unpredictable! If you need to cancel or reschedule with reasonable notice, your non-refundable retainer deposit can be applied to a new date that works for both of us.

If it's raining, we would reschedule to the next day that works for both of us.

I always keep an eye on the weather and do my best to be flexible. If conditions are extreme, we’ll reschedule to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort.

For last-minute cancellations within 8 hours of the scheduled session, the deposit may be forfeited.

I believe in under-promising and over-delivering—both on turnaround times and the final number of delivered images in your gallery.

Portrait & General Sessions: During the quieter off-peak season (late fall through spring), galleries are typically delivered within 4 weeks. During the busy summer and early fall months, high-volume session schedules extend gallery delivery up to 8 weeks.

Wedding & Event Galleries: Due to the comprehensive nature and sheer volume of full wedding coverage, final galleries are delivered within 8 weeks in winter, and within 12 weeks durring spring/summer.

Sneak Peeks: To hold you over, every wedding gallery includes a curated sneak peek gallery delivered within 48 hours so you can celebrate and share your favourite moments right away.

Rush Delivery: If you need your full gallery delivered faster than the standard seasonal window, a rush processing fee can be applied to expedite your delivery.

Once your images are ready, you’ll receive an email with a link to your private, password-protected online gallery.

Easy Downloads: Your gallery includes a secure download PIN so you can save high-resolution images directly to your phone, computer, or cloud storage.

Simple Sharing: You are welcome to share the gallery link and download PIN with family and friends so they can view, download, and celebrate your images, too.

Gallery Expiry: Private online galleries are hosted and active for 60 days after delivery. Please ensure you download and back up all of your high-resolution files to your personal devices before the 60-day window closes.

Repeat Clients & Grouped Bookings: Loyalty means the world to me. Returning clients receive exclusive loyalty rates, and savings are also available when booking multiple sessions or group coverage together.

Bump to Baby & Shower Bundles: Documenting your growing family as a complete story comes with built-in package savings. When you bundle a Maternity and Newborn session, you receive a special package rate—and adding on a Baby Shower coverage package comes at a discounted add-on price as well.

Mini Sessions: Seasonal mini-session events are offered periodically throughout the year at a condensed, accessible price point.

Creative Concepts & Unique Locations: As an artist, I love bringing fresh ideas to life. If you have a truly unique concept, a dream location, or a visionary project that sparks creative inspiration, reach out! I’m always open to discussing custom pricing for collaborative and distinctive projects.

You can book by emailing me at lisa@lisaleophotography.com or by filling out the contact form on my website. A 50% retainer is required to secure your session.
