The FAQ
Who do you serve?
First and foremost I am:
LGBTQIA+ ally
Safe space for all religions
Welcoming of all races, ethnicities and backgrounds.
We are diverse, inclusive and work with all abilities.
I want everyone to feel comfortable to be themselves and to be truly seen.
How long have you been doing this?
I have been photographing the world around me for over ten years! I started like many people do, with those cheap disposables that took the 90's by storm, to my first tiny point and shoot. I eventually went to CTEC for 3D animation and design and rediscovered my love for being behind the camera.
What about a private gallery?
When booking with me, please specify if you would like a private gallery.
A private gallery email will have the pin at the bottom of the invite. This is a four number pin, keeping your images safe.
Non-private galleries will serve as a viewable portfolio on my website
How do we book you?
I have a booking website linked on my contact page, but I accept emails, phone calls and texts for scheduling session and consultations.
How many photos do we get?
Every session will always get a gallery of at least 30 images, 15 for my 30 minute mini session. You will have complete access to the entire gallery, minus completely unusable images.
How do we get our photos?
1) Galleries will be on my home webpage under "client galleries" once it is published.
2) Once published, I will also be emailing you a link to your personal gallery.
Do you Travel?
Yes I do! I am an avid traveler and would love to take this experience anywhere you'd like! We can discuss pricing, via miles, flights, ect. I'm down to make almost anywhere happen.
Do you retouch photos?
I do minimal editing to keep the natural feel of my photos. I like to keep my galleries as true to life as possible, but am willing to discuss a level to fit your style.
Whats your turn around time?
I try to keep my shoot to post timeline at 3-4 weeks, however added editing, hours of shooting and just life in general may have some flexibility either direction.
Can you help us with planning?
Absolutley! I am here to help, and have quite a few connections. Looking for a performer? More photographers to catch a long event? Need suggestions for a place to eat after the session? Just let me know and I'll do my best :)
How far out do you book?
My minimum booking window is three days, and at most six months. If you would like to reschedule, please do so 72 hours before your appointment, anything beyond may be subject to a fee.
What should we do for an engagement session?
Specify during our initial consultation that you would like to be doing an engagement, then we can get into the fun stuff. Some questions I'd ask would be:
Do they know its coming?
How disguised should I be?
Location ideas you may have
Duration of shoot
Book me for the engagement and the wedding will be 10% off
What should we wear?
Whatever you'd like! I love a great outfit, and know a lot of people in conventions, acting and performance arts. I would so love to do a Star Wars duel, or a 70's themed photoshoot, and am up for anything.
