Location:

Most sessions will take place at Granite Regional Park in Sacramento unless otherwise noted. When selecting your date/time, the location is listed. I'll have a few other options at Sac State Arboretum and the UC Davis Arboretum.

Granite Regional park is a large park off Power Inn Road. Park by the skatepark, we'll walk around a path filled with fall foliage and oak trees.

Granite Regional Park 8200 Ramona Ave, Sacramento, CA 95826

Weekend mini sessions must take place at this location. If you prefer a weekday session, we can shoot at another location in Sacramento (please confirm prior to booking- info@christinabestphotography.com)

FAQ:

What about covid? I'm fully vaccinated and will keep my distance. If anyone has been exposed to or has symptoms of covid, we can reschedule.
What do we wear? Wear clothes that you feel comfortable and confident in. Coordinate with your family, but don't try to be matchy-matchy unless that's your vibe. Wearing fall colors like burgundy, rust, cream, white/black/gray, will really pop amongst the fall colors (try not to wear green in case we shoot in front of foliage).
How do I get my photos? Your gallery is delivered digitally via email about a week after our photo session. It includes 20 images, but you have the option to purchase extra photos. Details are sent with your gallery!
What if there's smoke/rain/bad weather? We can totally reschedule if any of these things come up! If it's raining, I usually check the weather the evening before. The clouds can add a nice mood to photos, but if it's pouring rain let's reschedule.
Do I have to pay with Paypal? My site uses paypal in checkout, but if you prefer to pay via venmo or online by credit card, let me know.
