What is your style?
I tend to lean more toward moody, which is great for Fall colors or more dramatic scenes. However, I would consider my style as deep color, and I love black and white or monochrome photography. I make it a priority to learn different styles and to offer as many styles as possible for my clients. This ensures that I can be a better all around photographer.
Can you work with a budget?
Absolutely, but within reason. Remember that a photographer’s job isn’t done when the camera stops clicking. In fact, its after the session ends when we start really earning our money. Uploading, culling, organizing, creating beautiful galleries and then editing and delivering is a tedious process and can take hours if not days to complete.
How do I know what package is right for me?
If you book a consultation we will discuss your needs, your budget and what packages would best suit you. Most importantly when deciding, keep in mind that the amount of wardrobe changes and shoot locations will be dependent on the amount of time it takes you to change, and the transit times between locations. Be mindful of these obstacles when scheduling your shoot. There is an ‘additional time’ add-on available in the scheduler if you’ve already booked your shoot and you need more time.
What is your policy on tardiness?
Communication is key and goes a long way in ensuring a smooth and worry free session. Arrivals more than 30 minutes late will usually result in a cancellation if not communicated properly. It is generally best to show up at least 10 minutes before the shoot and wearing the first outfit, this ensures that we use the time you booked efficiently.
What is your refund policy?
Once a booking is confirmed, there are no full refunds on the deposit, however, you can always reschedule. You can reschedule up to two times. If cancelling more than 72 hours prior to your session, you will receive a 75% refund on your deposit. If cancelling within 72 hours you will receive a 50% refund on your deposit. If cancelling within 48 hours you will receive a 25% refund on your deposit. If canceling within 24 hours, you will not receive a refund. However if you cancel within 24 hours due to serious illness or verifiable ‘Act of God’ circumstance the session can be rescheduled using initial deposit but will not be refunded.
What is your policy on weather related delays or cancellations?
We understand that weather is out of our control. If inclement weather results in a canceled appointment and the need to reschedule, your deposit will be held for the rescheduled shoot.
Can I bring a friend or family member?
Escorts, chaperones are always welcome, but please limit the amount of friends or family to 3 people so as not to be disruptive during the shoot. If you decide to bring more than this, the photographer is not responsible for lost time due to distractions. You are more than welcome to request more time at 50.00 per 30 min due upon completion of the session.
Do you provide makeup?
No, the photographer does not provide and MUA or hair stylist. However, I can book one for you for an additional fee. Your personal MUA and stylists are welcome on set. But be mindful of the time. If you are not hair and makeup ready by the start of the session time, the photographer will not be responsible for loss of session time. As stated above you are more than welcome to purchase more time at the 50.00 per 30 min rate.
Are there other services provided or included in the package?
Add-ons prior to booking are available, when selecting your package, scroll down and you can select any add-ons you want in addition to your package. Please keep in mind that tangible item add-ons like flowers or champagne are available as long as I am given ample time to retrieve them prior to the shoot.
What is the turn-around time for photos?
Turn-around time will depend mostly on the type of shoot, the amount of images taken and the amount of editing you want. Typically a gallery is provided within 2-5 days for you to choose your favorites to edited. After you have made your choices, please allow up to 7-10 business days for your photos to be delivered. Please keep in mind during the busy season, this can increase up to 14 days.
Do you offer expedited services?
Yes, Expedited services are available for an additional fee. You can find these in the add-ons section of the scheduler. Expedited service is usually 1-3 days After your selections are made. If you want this service after the booking has been completed, Just contact and I can send an invoice for the additional service.
What if I decide later that I want more edits?
There is a selection in the add-ons for more edits. Typically, additional edits can range from 10-15.00 per image depending on the amount of editing needed.
