The Process

What to Expect

From your first inquiry to receiving your gallery — here's exactly what working with Connor looks like, step by step.

01

Send an inquiry

Reach Out

Fill out the contact form with your date, session type, and a little about your vision. Connor responds to all inquiries within 24–48 hours. No question is too small — this is the start of your story.

What to include: your event date, location or venue, how you heard about Miller Imagery, and anything that feels important to you.

Send an Inquiry
02

A quick conversation

Connect & Chat

Connor will reach out to learn more about you, answer any questions, and make sure it's a great fit. This might be a quick email exchange or a short phone call — whatever feels comfortable.

This is a great time to ask about style, packages, travel, or anything else on your mind. There's no pressure and no commitment at this stage.

03

Lock in your date

Book & Sign

Once you're ready to move forward, Connor will send a contract and invoice. A 50% deposit secures your date — the remaining balance is due two weeks before your session or wedding day.

Wedding dates book 6–18 months in advance. Engagement and senior sessions typically book 4–8 weeks out. The sooner you reach out, the more date options you'll have.

04

The fun part

Your Session

On the day of your session, Connor's goal is simple: make you feel comfortable and capture the real you. He'll guide you through poses when needed, but mostly he's watching for the genuine moments in between.

For engagements and couples sessions, plan for 1–3 hours depending on your package. Weddings vary by coverage level. Connor will walk you through the timeline in advance.

05

First look at your photos

Sneak Peek

Within 24–48 hours of your session, Connor sends a sneak peek — a small selection of edited favorites so you don't have to wait long to relive the day. Wedding clients receive 5–15 sneak peek images same day.

The sneak peek is just a taste. Full galleries take a little longer to ensure every image is perfectly edited.

06

Everything delivered

Your Gallery

Your full edited gallery is delivered via a private online link. You'll have high-resolution downloads, print release, and a USB drive (included with all packages). Your gallery stays live for 1–3 years depending on your package.

Turnaround times: mini sessions 1–2 weeks · engagement & senior sessions 2–3 weeks · weddings 6–8 weeks (Full Day clients receive priority 2-week editing).

Common Questions

Still Have Questions?

What if I've never had professional photos taken before?

Most people feel awkward in front of a camera at first — that's completely normal. Connor's approach is relaxed and conversational. By the end of a session, most clients forget the camera is even there.

Can I request specific shots or locations?

Absolutely. Connor loves when clients come with inspiration images or location ideas. Share a Pinterest board, a specific park, or a meaningful spot and he'll make it work.

What should we wear?

After booking, Connor sends a style guide with outfit tips for different session types. The short version: wear something you feel confident in, avoid busy patterns, and coordinate (but don't match) with your partner.

What if the weather is bad?

For outdoor sessions, Connor monitors the forecast and will reach out to reschedule if needed — at no extra charge. Some of the most beautiful photos happen in overcast light or light rain.

Do you travel outside the Twin Cities?

Yes. Connor is based in White Bear Lake but available throughout the Midwest. Travel fees apply for locations outside a 50-mile radius. Contact him for a custom travel quote.
