. . . and answers!

I want this shoot to be a whole mood. Any ideas?

I’ve got you covered! I’ve got so many ideas but we’ll start by listing what’s most important to you. The more I learn about you - your personality, hobbies, pet peeves - the more personalized your session will become. I spend time creating mood boards and session guides so every single client feels prepared, has a fun photo shoot and gets images they love.

I'm not sure how to pose. Help!!!

No worries, help is on the way! During your session, I will continuously guide you into actions and poses. You'll feel natural, playful, stylish and maybe even sexy!

Can you help me choose a location?

If you're not sure what kind of environment you'd like to be photographed in, I can help. Most of my sessions happen in the DFW metroplex. However, I love traveling and I’m happy to go anywhere (thus far, the coolest places I’ve been are Cuba and Dubai!). Travel expenses such as gas mileage and accommodations may apply, depending on the time and place of your session.

How far in advance can I book my session?

The more you want to have captured - multiple outfits, more than 2 people, multiple locations - the more beneficial further advance bookings. I suggest booking your session at least one month in advance to allow for preparation time.

Can we shoot anywhere? What about studio or location fees?

Some locations require permission, rental fee or paid permits before a session can take place. Others have restrictions on what can be brought in for a shoot and how long it will last. Any studio rental or location permit fees required for a location must be obtained and paid for by the client before the session.

What if I only want one or two photos?

My Efficiency Collection is the perfect option. It includes a 30 minute session, an instant photo reveal and the selection of up to 3 images. This collection is $500.

What if I need to reschedule or cancel my session?

A 48 hour notice is required to cancel or reschedule your session. There is no fee to reschedule as long as a venue or studio rental was not included in your session. Most venues and studios do not give any refunds or options to reschedule. Should you decide to cancel your session, all but the 30% retainer will be refunded. If notice is not given in 48 hours, or you do not come to your session, you will not receive a refund.

What if I'm late to the shoot?

I will wait for you at our agreed location for the duration of your scheduled session. Being tardy means you will not have enough time to change into multiple outfits, visit different areas of the location or have as many images in your final image gallery.

What if I usually hate the way I look in pictures?

Then I suggest a complimentary consultation before you book a session. We are going to have a heart to heart conversation about your self-perception in photos. I’m going to ask several questions so I can figure out what you love and dislike about the photos other people have taken of you. If you decide to proceed with the shoot, I’ll apply what I’ve learned during your session.

HOWEVER, (and I put that in caps for a reason)... no photographer can change your perspective for you. Beauty and love comes from within. If you haven’t yet reached a place where you are ready to show yourself some self love and acceptance via photographs, I highly suggest you focus on self care and leave the photoshoot for another time.

After the shoot, how long untill I see the pics?

As early as 2 days! After your session comes what I like to call “Reveal and Chill”. I will remove duplicates as well as the shots where you blinked, sneezed or were speaking mid sentence. You will see all of the images that remain (typically 40 to 60).

We can schedule a your reveal in person or virtually.

Then what happens?

You’ll receive a download link for your digital files the next day (a fully paid balance is required). Your gallery will remain online for 60 days. I'll apply additional retouching to a max of 10 images by request. From there, I'll design and order your photo book.

What kind of retouching is included?

Softening/removal of scars and acne, softening/removal of distractions from the background and flyaway hair management. Your skin texture will remain intact.

I do not offer body sculpting as a form of retouching. The best results happen when a client shows up with their attire pressed, their face beat and hair on fleek (for those who don't speak millennial, come camera ready!).

What rights come with my photos?

As my client, you have the right to print, post and store your images indefinitely. You cannot trademark or sell them as a product. As the photographer, I retain the rights to use any image I take to promote my business without client notification or approval.

You can purchase exclusive rights to an individual image for $500 or the entire collection for $5000.

Can I buy the RAW files?

Yes, you can purchase each RAW image file for $800.
