“HOW DO I BOOK A SHOOT?”

Step one: reach out to me via my contact form here on the website and let’s chat about the vision!! Once we confirm all the details, a $100, non-refundable retainer is required for all sessions to secure your date/time. For elopements and wedding events, a 50% retainer is due up front.

The purpose of the retainer is to lock-in your session. I do not schedule anything in my calendar UNTIL the retainer is paid, which means your time slot is up for grabs. Nothing is booked until the retainer is paid.

The remainder of your session fee is due on the shoot date, or the week of your event for weddings/elopements.

Once the retainer has been paid, you will be emailed a digital PDF of my session contract, which you will be required to sign electronically and email back to me.

Only when the retainer is paid and the contract is signed/emailed back to me is your session officially in my books!

“WHAT ABOUT BAD WEATHER?”

I’m a strong believer in “there’s no such thing as bad weather.” I’ve shot in rain, wind, etc and I feel it can actually add something special and creative to your photos!

However, if we decide that the forecasted weather doesn’t work for the vibe of your session, I will contact you as early as possible for a reschedule date, which your retainer will go toward. However, if you cancel/do not show up to your session, your retainer will be lost. For emergency reschedules on your end, I ask that you please let me know as soon as possible so that I can adjust my schedule accordingly!

“HOW & WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY IMAGES?”

You will receive your finished, beautifully retouched photos within 2-3 weeks after your session. Please allow for up to a month for weddings/elopements, as they are much larger galleries.

Your photos will be sent to your email via an online gallery called Pixieset, which is a free + easy to use site where you can download your high-res images to your computer using the provided PIN.

The download PIN expires within a month, so be sure to save your gallery ASAP!

I always encourage clients to back up their gallery as well, (either to a second hard drive or a flash drive), as I clear out old sessions every few months, and may not have them saved for you in the future if you were to lose them.

Part of my job is selecting the best of the best images for your final gallery. This means you may not see every single shot I take at a session, for example: duplicates, shots where you are blinking, talking, unflattering angle, etc.

While the number of images you will receive is determined by what is included in the type of shoot you book, I have no reason to keep additional images from you that I think you would enjoy! If it’s not included in the final gallery, it has been discarded.
