frequently asked questions:
- What should I wear?
Please check the "Photo Fashion" tab for suggestions and ideas. - Can you cover up blemishes and scars?
Editing and making clients feel beautiful is something we take great pride in. This type of correcting is possible in most situations. We keep in mind that our clients are not perfect, as are no humans, and therefore do not over edit either. - Do I really need to sign a contract?
A contract is very important for both of us. This provides you a secured date and time as well as a good understanding of what the session expectations are and what the client/photographer relationship is. - Can I book my session and pay the deposit later?
Deposits are required to secure session dates. - Do you suggest I use a local printing company such as Walgreens?
Though local printers are great for printing your personal photos, we do not recommend doing this on a professional level. Photos from these types of printers do not match color or quality as those of a professional printing company. Your prints and products from our session should be the highest quality possible. I will be happy to recommend a high quality, affordable photo printing company for you. - How long will it take to get a preview of my images?
Within 7-10 days of your appointment, you will receive your CD/DVD/Flash Drive. Your order will be placed from the edited images provided on your digital media. - Can I bring people with me for support?
Having a support system is always a great thing, however in photo sessions it can be a bit distracting. To get the most natural reaction from a client during a shoot we like to keep friends and family at a distance. If you decide to bring someone along with you, we ask that they stay a short distance behind us as we shoot. - Will you provide me with unedited images?
It is our policy that no unedited images will be given to clients for any reason. Your CD, DVD or Flash drive will include photos that I have chosen as the golden ones. Those will be edited and available, but no other images including unedited or raw files will be provided. - I heard your camera clicking hundreds of photos, will I get every one of them?
No. We take multiple photos to ensure we don’t miss the shot due to a client blinking, someone passing by in the distance, etc. For this reason we only choose the best of those images and put them on your digital media. - Should I expect to receive a photo from every pose we did?
No. Sometimes a pose does not work out the way we intended it to, and therefore not all poses will be provided. It is our job to provide high quality images rather than providing quantity. - Can I use my own editing programs to make my images fun?
Altering images in any way is strictly prohibited! If a company logo has been placed on the photo, it must be visible at all times. Photos that are uploaded to social networking sites are for advertisement purposes, so please...No cropping. - What if it rains?
Yes, occasionally unfortunate events will require a Plan B. If this happens, or any other unforeseen circumstance pops up, we will discuss a new session date. - If I want to reschedule do I need to let you know in advance?
If you need to reschedule your session, please provide at least 48-hour notice. - I changed my mind, can I get my deposit back?
There is a lot that goes into planning, scouting locations etc. for your session. For this reason deposits are non-refundable.
