FAQ
When will I see my photos?
I’m usually excited to see your images myself and tend to start on editing straight away. This usually means that you will be able to view your full gallery within a week to two weeks. Please allow for up to two weeks, as although I endeavor to get them completed as quickly as possible, we all know that sometimes life gets in the way and this isn’t always possible.
Once your gallery is complete, the images will be uploaded to Pass Gallery and I will email you a link to view your gallery. From there, you can download and share all of the images provided to you. Your gallery will be active for 3 months. You can download at a quality suitable for social media, as well as Full Quality for printing. I do not provide any prints, but you are more than welcome to download and print yourself or even better, use my print shop attached to Pass gallery.
What should I bring to the shoot?
If you have chosen a location shoot, it would be great if you could bring a nice blanket to sit on. If there are children in the shoot, you may like to bring a special cuddly toy, or some food to bribe them with! (Please make sure the food is not messy and does not come in packets – as this can then become part of your images!)
What should I wear?
It’s a good idea to avoid logos or clashing patterns – however florals, stripes and spots can work well (as long as not everyone is wearing a pattern). It’s also a good idea to avoid too much black – especially if some family members are dressed very dark, and some are dressed very light – as this can make lighting difficult. Keeping within the same tone, without overly matching, is a great idea. If you would like additional advice, feel free to contact me, and send me any pictures of clothing ideas you have.
When is payment required?
When booking a family mini-session, I require a non-refundable $50 deposit to book your session unless you have given a 48-hour notice. I must have a 48-hour notice for any rescheduled session or cancellations. The remaining balance must be paid after your session is over. I currently accept cash, Venmo or Zelle. Other sessions may require higher deposits depending on the session.
What happens if the weather is bad?
If the weather is scheduled to be rainy or windy, I will be in contact with you to discuss whether the shoot will continue. I will be in constant contact with you. Weather is extremely unpredictable and I view hourly weather. If we decide to cancel due to bad weather, we can simply reschedule to another date. I will give you different options to choose from.
