The Experience

My child is special needs, is there portrait artists that can work with them?

Enchanted Fairies welcomes children of all abilities.

Special needs, and differently-abled children will find a haven at Enchanted Fairies.

Our certified Enchanted Fairies photographers are specially trained to help all children feel comfortable and have lots of fun.

In order for us to best present ourselves to your amazing child, we ask you to email us ahead of time of any special notes or requests (eg. sensory issues ‘does not like to be touched’)

Because of our ties to children’s charities, we are serious in our commitment to making all feel at home in the forest.

Can adults book a session?

Yes! Just hop on the invite list for your preferred location.

Will we have to see our images after our session?

We’ve all been there, everyone is having a great time at an outing, lots of smiles and enthusiasm. Then one second to the next, our kids are hangry, their energy tank is running on E, and they need a snack and a nap, stat!

Not to worry!

You will be able to see your images in the comfort of your own home.

Our ‘Premiere & Ordering’ appointments (yes like a Hollywood movie premiere) are scheduled right after the session, for a later time of your choosing when you can have time for you and anyone else you’d like to invite, to see the gorgeous images from your magical session.

So take a breath, relax, have an amazing session and munch on some snacks on the way home, knowing your images are being lovingly curated for you to see very soon.

What percentage of the session fee goes to charity?

When booking through one of our exciting charity events, 100% of proceeds from session fees, calendar contest votes, and calendar sales are all donated to children’s charities.

How many 8X10 Limited Edition prints do I receive for free?

Your family, if you have taken advantage of one of our charity events, will receive one free Limited Edition 8X10 portrait per 365 day period. Only one per household and understandably it can not be combined with other offers.

It is part of our special mission to raise funds for children’s charities while going above and beyond for our clients.

Not only do guests get to experience the immersive magic of an Enchanted Fairies session, you get to have access to our high end, gorgeous wardrobe, flower crowns, tiaras, pixie dust and fairy wings. You get to have an incredible interactive session with our certified Enchanted Fairies portrait artists.

Best of all, all the proceeds from your $25 per child all goes to charity, we keep nothing.

To go above and beyond, we want you and everyone who enters our studio, to walk away with one free 8X10, no obligation.

We can not wait to serve you and your child.

What is your rescheduling policy?

We are currently experiencing overwhelming demand. Your child’s confidence-boosting magical session with Enchanted Fairies is a truly one-of-a-kind experience.

Our regular session fees are $200, due to the limited number of available magical session appointments, rescheduling an appointment with less than one weeks notice will result in a $99 cancellation fee. (This cancellation fee will be stored as a credit for you to use towards any portrait purchase)

Our sessions are normally booked 2 months or more in advance. (For example, I’m writing this in October and our sessions are 100% booked for the rest of the year.)

When you reschedule with more than one weeks notice you do not incur any charge.

To reschedule please email us using the help bubble at the bottom of this webpage.

How much does it cost to have a session?

Our regular session fees are $200.

Sometimes we run events that benefit charity and allow families to access our sessions as low as $25 per child to experience the entire magical session, have access to our gorgeous wardrobe, the flower crowns, tiaras, pixie dust and fairy wings.

The best part, is when you donate the $25 per child, 100% of your session fee proceeds all go to charity and each family receives one 8X10 Limited Edition Enchanted Fairies portrait. Only one 8X10 print per family per 365 day period.

You will have an opportunity to purchase additional prints and storybooks, but there is never any obligation.

How much are additional prints?

When taking advantage of one of our exciting charity events, an Enchanted Fairies session is totally all-inclusive.

You pay a modest $25 fee per child that we donate 100% of proceeds to a hand-selected charity partner.

One of the charities we benefit, currently is called Kidd’s Kids. They take kids with terminal and life-altering conditions to Disney World with their families to get a chance to be kids for a week. Gives them a break from the hospital visits.

What you get with all this: your kids get to dress up, get access to our selection of gorgeous dresses, flower crowns, wings and the entire magical experience of an Enchanted Fairies session with your very own certified Enchanted Fairies photographer.

They will get pixie dust and I can’t speak higher of our photographers.. the experience they provide is one that rivals Disney honestly. Totally magical laugh out loud experience!

The best part! You get an 8X10 absolutely for free (1 per family per 365 day period) and you get to choose the exact pose you decide on when you schedule your zoom Premiere and Ordering appointment.

If you’d like more photos than the one you get absolutely for free, our pricing starts at $200.

The upper pricier packages can range and be up there, some of those for example would include a hand-painted oil painting commissioned by a classical artist that takes upwards of 6 months to create FAQ | Enchanted Fairies Fairy Photoshoot (9).

Rest assured there is something for everyone, even if you just want to have the experience and get the completely free portrait.

(ETA 3/5/21) MARCH 2021 UPDATE: Our Painting Artist is currently booked up for the next 2 years. Due to lack of availability, we are not offering our Masterpiece Paintings at this time.

I need help scheduling my zoom premiere appointment.

Feel free to email us at using the help bubble at the bottom of this webpage.

Please be sure to let us know what name the session is under (usually the parent’s name), phone number and email so we are able to locate you and get you scheduled.

How can we get other family members to view and purchase images?

The best way is to set up a time in which everyone (grandmothers, aunts, family members), can view them all at the same time.

We find that the viewing appointment is a very special treat as our Art Directors have specially curated the best images and they set the entire presentation to beautiful music for your viewing pleasure.

If you need to adjust your appointment just email us using the help bubble at the bottom of this webpage with one weeks notice.

What are the age requirements?

There is no age limit to magic.

Is there a cancellation list I can get on?

Yes, we do have a cancellation list. Occasionally, we receive same-day cancellations. If you’re seeking an appointment on short notice and can arrive with less than 24 hours’ notice, you have a quick and convenient option. Simply click on the live chat button located at the bottom right of your screen to speak directly with one of our customer support representatives. They will assist you in getting added to our cancellation list promptly.

Can I book a session for this weekend?

Your child’s confidence-boosting session with Enchanted Fairies is a one of a kind experience that is in high demand. Our sessions are normally booked 2 months or more in advance. (For example, I’m writing this in October and our sessions are 100% booked for the rest of the year.)

On occasion we do have last minute reschedules and something opens up last minute. Your best bet is to make sure you’re on the invite list to be the first to know.
