How do I schedule my children for a session?
Our season opens in March through December/ January (weather permitting). You need to call our office to schedule an appointment. Please call a few days early to schedule a session, because our availability may be limited and our schedule may fill up quickly.
Who needs a completed release form to be on the grounds?

Yes. We require that parents stay on the property during their child’s session. We have many activities that everyone can do while you wait.
