FAQ
1. How do I book a photo session with you?
Fill out my contact form located within my website for the easiest and most convenient method of communication!
Do you travel for sessions?
YES! I love to travel and get to experience unique locations with my clients. Travel fees will apply to locations beyond 30 miles from Massena, NY where I am located.
3. How long does it take to receive the final edited images?
My regular sessions have a typical turn around time of 20-28 days. My turn around time may be slightly slower than others as I work a separate full time job as a Registered Nurse in the ED! I work hard to be efficient and meet these deadlines and will always communicate any delays past the 20 day mark to you.
4. How do I prepare for a portrait session with you?
Preparing for your portrait session does not need to be stressful or overwhelming! I am always happy to help you prep and plan, and give outfit guidance if needed. Never hesitate to ask questions!
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! I collect a $75 non-refundable retainer fee to secure your date, and after that you can pay in increments of your choice leading up to your session date. The total is expected to be paid the night before your session.
Do you give out RAW photos?
I do not offer RAW images.
What if I am expecting bad weather on my session date?
If weather conditions may be considered unsafe the day of your session we will reschedule for both of our safety! Such weather conditions include extreme winds, temperatures, and lightning.
Of note, I am more than happy to shoot in the rain if other conditions remain safe, such as the absence of lightning/extreme wind/temperatures.
Do you have a client wardrobe in your studio?
Yes! I have started a client wardrobe for my studio to improve my client's experience. I have various outfits for different birthday or creative sessions, including party dresses, fur coats, dress pants, shoes, sunglasses, gucci inspired tights, etc!
