FAQs

  • That’s fine! 90% of the people I work with have never had a professional photoshoot before. I am here to guide you and walk you through the process step-by-step. #GoodVibesOnly You are hiring me to capture you at your best. It’s my job to make you look and feel as awesome as possible. t goes here

  • No Problem! That’s not an issue at all! That is why you are hiring me as your professional photographer. I am here to bring out the confidence and make you the rockstar you are! The whole idea is to relax, have fun and SHOW your inner Savage.

  • Don’t worry. We will go over that during your pre-production meeting. Once we figure out what your brand values are and what your goals are we can start to build out your wardrobe options. More is always better, but I am here to help you.

  • No, you don’t. If you are comfortable and skilled with doing your own hair and makeup that is totally fine with me. BUT! That is just adding one more thing to stress about.

    Let’s be honest, having your picture taken is stressful enough. Hiring and professional Hair and Makeup Artist is one less thing to worry about and I PROMISE you your photos will look better and your photoshoot will be a lot less stressful. To me, it is alway worth it.

    I also have a list of Artists I’ve work with in the past you can hire, or you can hire your own Artist.

  • I do offer some commercial packages that offer high-resolution, digital files for marketing, or other commercial purposes.

    These are not considered “RAW” files. No image captured is perfect straight out of camera (SOOC). Ever! Every image must be developed. I do not offer Raw files.

  • In most cases, you will have your proofs with-in a week of of your photoshoot. That is the deadline I strive for.

    There are occasions where that timeline varies. Like… was it a team or volume setting where I photographed 100+ subjects in a day? In that case, it might take longer. On average though. I tend to stay on time.

    After that, if you have chosen a package with retouching you will get an updated timeline based on the amount of photos you chose and how many other images/subjects are in the editing pipeline.

    I do all my own retouching. I DO NOT send out my retouching/editing out like some other photographers. I do my own work. I respect your business and trust.

  • The amount of images included will vary based on the package you are purchasing. You always have the option to add additional images as well. You will have a clear understanding of how many images you are getting based on the package you purchase and during the consultation period.

  • This is always a sticky subject anytime laws are involved. But… to date… I have never had an issue of rights that couldn’t be resolved, or been an issue.

    For most photoshoots, I am granting you (the subject) a license to use the photos in any personal, promotional or editoral use. (Editorial use does require a AP styled byline)

    Basically, you can use the photo anyway you want, but you CAN NOT give or sell the image to a person or entity to use without express written consent from me.

    Ultimately, the photographer is forever the copyright holder of any image they take.
