milestone sessions - Stephanie Koppa

looking to have a moment in time captured? i got you.

although i primarily photograph weddings, i also offer stand-alone sessions. these sessions are perfect to capture a milestone, like an engagement, adopting a new puppy, or a special anniversary.

milestone sessions are geared toward individuals or couples, i don't offer family or newborn sessions. if you are looking for a family shoot, i am happy to refer to you to some amazing photographers in the milwaukee area.

FAQ + additional info

does pricing include tax?

pricing as stated above does not include wi state or local county sales tax.

are permit costs included?

if the location we are shooting in requires a permit, it is your responsibility to obtain and pay for it. please look into this before we shoot - some locations require a permit and we wouldn't want to get kicked out mid-session!

how do you handle inclement weather + rescheduling?

we will be in contact the day before the session. if the weather isn't looking ideal, we will reschedule to the soonest day that works for both of us. easy as that! if we do decide to postpone, the decision will be final even if the weather clears up.
i strongly suggest rescheduling if the temperatures fall below 35, if heavy rains are predicted, if strong winds are in the forecast, or it looks like we will have high temps + high humidity levels.

will you photoshop me?

every photo you receive will be edited - color graded, straightened, balanced, and otherwise softly adjusted. obvious imperfections such as blemishes will be removed but substantial adjustments - such as slimming body parts, straightening a crooked necklace, visible bra straps, removing tan lines or fixing splotchy spray tans, etc - will be subject to additional charges based how extensive the work is.

when can we shoot?

stand alone sessions (photoshoots that are not part of a wedding photography package) are scheduled monday-friday only. saturdays and sundays are reserved for weddings.

we can shoot any time during the day but i recommend that we meet 2-3 hours before sunset to catch the softest light. i don't recommend shooting when the sun is at its highest point, so shooting early AM, around sunrise or in the evening closer to sunset is best.

how do we book?

first, we will pick a date and get it on the calendar, and then 50% the session total is due to lock it in. the remaining balance is due the day of the shoot.
payment can be made online (subject to a 2% processing fee), venmo, or check.

branding session

what is a branding session?

a branding session is a great way to photograph you, doing what you do best! this type of session focuses solely on you and your craft and provides you with a variety of both still headshots and action photos. with more time, we work at a relaxed pace and get creative. if you're interested in learning more about what this entails, let's set up a consult call so we can talk through what's included and what to expect from a shoot like this.
