Frequently Asked Questions

 

Where are you based?

I live in sunny Southern California! More specifically, the High Desert, but I am able to go wherever you are.

 

DO YOU TRAVEL?

YES!!! I do travel, and I am so willing to go wherever you plan to have your session I do require an additional travel fee depending on the location you choose as well as an extra fee for hotel stay/airfare depending on the location

 

How much is your travel fee?

This will depend on what location you choose, but the starting fee is $75

 

CAN WE HAVE ACCESS TO RAW FILES?

I will NEVER send any RAW files to my clients. Photography is an art and editing is a huge part of my art. This is why it is important that you hire a photographer whose editing style resonates with your vision. I will always work hard to select and edit the BEST photos from your session, and I will make sure that the final result is something that you will love!

 

WHEN WILL WE RECEIVE OUR PHOTOS?

My Turnaround time is 4 weeks after your session day! This may be more or less depending on the season. I do appreciate your patience as I get your gallery back to you!

 

WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR FOR OUR PHOTOS?

I always advise my clients to wear neutrals and to stay away from crazy distracting patterns or clothing with words on it. However, it does totally depend on the vibe you are going for. If you are doing a branding session and your brand colors are bright and colorful, then that is totally okay. I will never force you to wear anything that you are not comfortable in. I also have outfits guides and Pinterest boards that I send to all of my clients who need help.

I am also always available through Facetime/call/text/email. A lot of clients like to send over their outfit ideas and ask for my opinion! I will always be available to answer any questions that you may have!

 

I DON’T KNOW HOW TO POSE IN PHOTOS – HELP!

I always like to remind my clients that the first few minutes of anything can be a little scary and awkward. Taking photos is no different. BUT I also want to remind you that it is my job to make sure you are absolutely comfortable! I want you to focus on being present with the love of your life, and let me take care of everything else. I will be there guiding you every step of the way giving you prompts and making sure that you are having fun! I'll also always be playing your favorite music, so that also helps soothe any nerves.

 

CAN WE SEE A FULL PORTRAIT GALLERY?

Of course! If asked, I will always send over some examples of a fully edited portrait gallery. If you are curious to see how your gallery will look like when I send it over or how my editing looks throughout a full portrait session at a specific location, just ask!

 

HOW MANY IMAGES CAN WE EXPECT?

I always guarantee 55 fully edited images. However, I promise that I will never hold back on a good photo to meet a certain photo limit. With this in mind, expect to see a few extra images in your gallery.

 

If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to ask.
