Full length sessions - Families with littles tend to want to be done asap because well... littles.  Although I feel once I have momentum I could take photos all day, I try keep it right around an hour.  If things are hard we can be done in as little as 45 minutes. It depends on the type of session but we are usually maxed out by 2 hours.

Half sessions are 30 minutes.

Coffee Shop Sessions are 20 minutes.

Solo sessions tend to take a bit more time to find variety and fun.  These sessions can last anywhere from one to two hours but you can always let me know when you are done and we will find a stopping point.  

School Photos shouldn't take any more than five to ten minutes per child. 

Wedding coverage starts at four hours, while you can purchase more time - I will generally say 5 hours is my max. 

All sessions allow add on time to extend the session length.  Though weddings, I will only extend by one hour.

For full length sessions I promise a minimum of 75 images delivered.  In about 90% of the sessions you're going to see around 80-120 images except Weddings and School photos.  Half sessions will produce at least 30 images to choose from. Weddings will produce 200-400 images and School Photos you should see a gallery of about 10 unique images per child.

How many images you receive depends on your session type.  Full length sessions and weddings will receive all of their finalized gallery images.  Half Sessions, Coffee Shop Sessions, School photos etc may offer a certain number of images included in your session fee with the option to purchase more/all of them.  This depends on your package purchased.

Love this question, I offer albums and wall art, as well as other print products, including a handmade photo ledge to display your favorite prints.  I am the person who will never stop yelling from the rooftops to print your images. 

Absolutely.

For local distances, not requiring a half day of travel or an overnight, $1 per mile beyond 30 miles of my home. 

I charge travel fees for beyond a 30 mile radius outside of my home, including lodging, expenses, and per diem if it is over 4 hours of total travel and 4 fours of total session time. 

For the full session fee you will book with a 30-50% retainer/hold fee and then pay on the rest up until the week before the session.

Payment plans for prints and products, it is a case by case basis but the fact is that Yes, upon request, to customers in good standing, I offer one month of a payment plan for every $500 billed.  Late fees will be assessed if necessary and nothing will be delivered until balance is paid.  

Nope.  The finalizing of the image is part of my job, where I show half of my creativity, my craft, and my art (the other half is during the session and your experience).  A painter would never hand you a blank canvas, and I will never give you a raw image.
