Yes, we do occasionally photograph weddings. Please contact us at 802-877-6999 or cs@amvphotography.com for more details and pricing.

We follow all Vermont State Covid guidelines. Your safety and comfort are our number one concern. The majority of our sessions are outdoors. And the photographer naturally maintains a distance of at least 6 feet from subjects.  Our primary photographer, Ann-Marie is fully vaccinated. However, if you are more comfortable, our photographers will wear masks at all times, even if they are vaccinated. We do not expect you to wear a mask while being photographed. While photographing schools and sports teams all state guidelines for interaction with students will be observed and all school/team safety rules will be followed. Our photographers will wear masks while photographing all Enlightened Kids events, unless given permission by the school or league not too.

You can schedule and pay for a session on our website. Registration for all of our programs can be found under each departments services section. If you purchase a private 1 hour-long Lifestyle, Senior or Basin Harbor session, please fill out the form with your preferred date and location. We cannot guarantee availability but we will do our best to accommodate you. If we are unable to schedule something with you your session fee will be refunded. 

Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. If you are not satisfied with a service or product we will reshoot or reprint at no extra cost to you, or you will receive a full refund.

We do not have a strict rain policy because everyone feels differently about photographing in the rain. For our mini sessions, we send out a confirmation email the day prior to the event and it will include details about what the forecast holds. Our private sessions are welcome to reach out to us if they are concerned about the weather.  We may also reach out to you in advance if the forecast is looking questionable.  If it is calling for rain you have a few options: you can reschedule for another date, wait until the last minute and see what happens, or if it's just a light rain we can go for it. Most of our locations have some covered areas and there is nothing cuter than kids with umbrellas! As always, your satisfaction is guaranteed. You will receive a full refund if not satisfied.  Even due to weather.

As far as clothing goes, the simpler the better. We recommend solid colors and no wording or large patterns. For groups we suggest having everyone in your group stick to one color family or tone, such as different shades of blue or all pastel tones or all jewel tones etc.

Pets are welcome at all of our Lifestyle, Senior, Porch Portraits, Basin Harbor, In-Studio, and some Walk in the Park sessions.

Due to extremely tight time constraints, we DO NOT allow pets at any of our Enlightened Kids sessions, including our After School Specials.

A few days after your session you will be sent a link and password to your personal gallery on our website so you can view your images and place an order. If your child was photographed with a school or team the information will be sent to the teacher or coach for communication with families.

Yes, all of our services include the option to purchase digital images or products.  We offer instant digital downloads of individual images, small and large batches of images, and entire digital sessions that include every image from your session, and digital slide shows. Find more information about digital items in the products section of your gallery.

All of our images are edited and color balanced, meaning we go through and choose the best images and enhance them. Retouching corrects blemishes and imperfections on the subject and the cost is based on the number of subjects to be retouched. Feel free to give us specific instructions in the comments section of your order.

Direct digital downloads are available for you to download immediately after purchase. All other online orders will be mailed to your address within 3 weeks. Preschool and sports orders placed using the paper order forms that are submitted on Photo Day will be delivered back to the organization for distribution within 3 weeks of Photo Day.

Galleries are available online until early the next calendar year. We run an “events to expire” sale at the beginning of each year before we remove the previous year’s galleries from our website. We archive all of our old images and we hold an archiving sale each spring for clients to purchase images from past years.

Yes, we do run a few sales throughout the year. We always hold 20% off sales for Black Friday and when galleries are about to expire from our website. In the spring we also hold a 50% off all digital items sale and a 20% off old archived images sale. We may run others so stay tuned to our newsletter for special offers!
