Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cost?
I offer a wide range of sessions. Depending the scope of the work it could vary. My cheapest session starts at $200. Complete list of prices — Pricing & Packages
Do you require a deposit?
Yes. I require a 50% deposit. This deposit is put towards your session. It protects me as the service provider and my time.
Can I get my deposit back if I change my mind?
If you contact me 48 hours prior to your session, Yes.
Where does the session take place?
The client has complete control on where they want to do the session. As the photographer I may help select the location if asked. If the location is selected by the client, it is the clients responsibility to get any and all permissions needed to shoot at that location.
How do you deliver your images?
All images are delivered via online gallery. From this gallery you can download your images, create favorites lists, and print your gallery. You are able to hide images and share the gallery with anyone you choose.
How long are your sessions?
Most sessions last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. Some take longer, depending on circumstances.
How many outfit changes can I have?
You can bring as many outfits as you would like. I am limited to the time quoted to you when we set your session up, so it may hinder me from getting the best images if you decide to change 3 or more time times.
Will you help me pose?
Yes! I will assist you in posing and movement. I will know what poses will provide you with the most natural look. The goal is to make you (and your party) to look comfortable. Some poses will feel un-natural but I assure you, those are the best poses.
Do you give out raw images?
I do not give out my raw images.
Can you give us outfit ideas.
Yes, I can help you pick out the outfits and color scheme.
Are there any items you absolutely recommend your clients to bring?
Yes, usually a blanket, jackets, water, and a snack.
Will you store our photo files forever? How long do you store them?
I will keep copies of the original files for up to six months. The edited copies that you receive can be accessed from you gallery for up to a year.
What if my dog/kid/wife/husband are not behaving?
In the case that a member of the party is not cooperating with the photographer, we will take a short break to see if that member will calm down or listen. If the member will still not cooperate, we can try to reschedule your session.
What photo lab do you recommend?
You gallery is embed with an online print store that has the labs I trust most. Simply go to your gallery, select store, then select what you want to print on e.g. canvas, metal prints, or wallet prints. No searching for a print lab online.
When will we see our photos?
I always try to keep my delivery timing around 7 days. In some circumstances it may take longer to develop the images.
