What is the investment for sessions, and which collections are available?
We offer a thoughtfully curated selection of three collections for each type of session, designed to provide a seamless and elevated photography experience. Portrait sessions begin at $650, with collections and products varying depending on the type of photography – family, headshots, or boudoir.
Throughout the year, we also release a limited number of exclusive petite sessions for select holidays and special occasions. To view our current collections and availability, we invite you to reach out via email. We’ll be happy to help guide you toward the option that best fits your vision. email here
What is required to secure a session date?
A signed contract and retainer are required to officially reserve your session date. Retainer amounts vary by location:
-
Las Vegas: $350 retainer
-
Nashville: $100 retainer
-
All other cities: full payment at booking
All retainers are non-refundable and applied toward your selected collection. We kindly ask that availability is confirmed with your photographer prior to submitting payment to ensure your preferred date is available.
Event photography, including weddings and quinceañeras, requires a 25% non-refundable retainer.
How are images delivered, and when can I expect them?
Your images are delivered through a private online gallery, allowing for seamless viewing, downloading, product ordering, and sharing in full high resolution.
As part of your session experience, we offer a personalized consultation call (phone, FaceTime, or video) once your session is reserved. This is a signature part of the Jiovana Photography experience, where we customize and plan every detail of your session, from wardrobe guidance and location selection to styling tips and the online image selection process. This ensures your session is perfectly tailored to your vision and expectations.
Within 3–5 days after your session, you’ll receive your proofing gallery to select your final images. Final gallery delivery typically takes 4–5 weeks, depending on how quickly selections are completed. Print orders are fulfilled within 1–2 weeks after final gallery delivery.
Event photography, including weddings and quinceañeras, follows a separate timeline. Please contact us for details.
Where are sessions held?
Jiovana Photography offers both in-studio and on-location sessions. We photograph in curated outdoor locations throughout Nashville, Tennessee, and Las Vegas, Nevada, as well as within our studio settings.
Team headshots may be photographed at your place of business, and lifestyle newborn sessions may be held in our studio, designed with neutral, all-white bedroom and living room-inspired sets to create a calm and timeless environment.
A curated list of locations is available upon request.
When is the best time to schedule a maternity session?
We recommend scheduling maternity sessions between 27 and 34 weeks of pregnancy. This window allows for a beautifully rounded belly while maintaining comfort and energy. For most clients, the 7th or early 8th month is ideal.
Every pregnancy is unique, so the best timing ultimately depends on how you’re feeling. Scheduling too close to your due date can sometimes lead to discomfort or the possibility of an earlier than expected arrival. Planning ahead ensures you capture this special moment.
Maternity Sessions for High-Risk Pregnancies:
For high-risk pregnancies, the end of the second trimester is often the most comfortable and reliable time to schedule your session. We are happy to work closely with you to create a safe and enjoyable experience.
When should newborn photos be scheduled, and what can I expect?
Jiovana Photography exclusively offers Lifestyle Newborn Sessions. This approach captures your baby in natural, connection-focused moments such as being held in a parent’s arms or resting peacefully in a bassinet.
Lifestyle newborn sessions are relaxed and unstaged, emphasizing genuine emotion and the bond between you and your baby. Sessions are ideal for babies aged 14 days to 6 months, allowing flexibility for your family’s schedule.
Our studio features soft, neutral, all-white bedroom and living room-inspired sets, creating a calm and welcoming environment. We do not offer traditional bean bag or bucket posing.
Our goal is to create timeless, meaningful portraits in an environment that feels comfortable, unhurried, and enjoyable for your family.
