Groups should wear similar colours, tones, and styles.
Patterns and logos can be distracting.
Jeans and khakis are good choices for casual photos.
Bare feet look great in casual photos.
Feel free to bring a jacket, hat, or scarf for a different look and feel.
Wrinkles show up in pictures. If you want to wear that special linen jacket (or anything else that wrinkles big time) bring it on a hanger and put it on at the shoot.
2. What should we bring?
Bring any props that might enhance your photos and add that personal touch.
It's always a good idea to have your favourite hairbrush with you, and any cosmetics that you might want to freshen up with.
3. What time of day is best?
Whatever works for you, works for me. With children, try to schedule the shoot right after naps and ensure they are well fed so they can be bright-eyed and bushytailed.
4. What if I have to cancel?
If something comes up, I'm happy to reschedule your photo session with a minimum of 24 hours notice. (Emergencies will be taken into account!)
5. How long will it take before we can see our photos?
It may take up to two weeks for your photos to be ready for viewing and ordering. We will set up an appointment to go over your photos in person.
6. How long do you keep our photos?
All the photos that you order will be kept on file for a year. You can reorder at any time. The balance of the photos will be kept for three months, unless you indicate that you'd like me to keep some longer for future orders.
7. What if I don't like the pictures?
Stuff happens, and if by chance you are not happy with the results of the photo session, I will happily reshoot, at no extra charge, at your convenience.
8. How much do you charge?
The session fee is $150 for an hour in my studio, and $200 for an hour on location.
9. Can I buy the digital versions instead, or in addition to, the prints?
Digital copies of prints in high resolution JPEG format, and low resolution web format, are available under certain circumstances. Ask me for details.
10. How do I pay?
The session fee is payable in advance to hold your booking. with Visa, MasterCard, or debit.
