FAQ

What photography services do you offer?

We offer a range of photography services tailored to capture life's important moments. Our offerings include event photography, ideal for commemorating special occasions and corporate gatherings. For weddings, we specialize in capturing every cherished moment from the ceremony to the reception. Additionally, we provide portrait sessions that beautifully portray individuals, couples, and families, whether indoors at our dedicated home studio, at client home or outdoors in natural settings. Please note, we focus exclusively on photography and do not offer videography services at this time.

What is included in your photography packages?

What's included in your photography session varies depending on the type of service and session you choose. For detailed information about what each session entails, please visit our Services page on our website. We are flexible and open to discussing your specific needs to create customized packages that best suit your preferences and requirements. Feel free to reach out to us directly through our contact page or request a quote form, and we'll be happy to tailor a package that meets your expectations.

Do you provide a print release with your packages?

Yes, we provide a print release with our packages. A print release grants clients the right to print and reproduce their photos for personal use, such as making prints or sharing digitally with friends and family. This release allows clients to enjoy their photos and use them within personal, non-commercial contexts without needing further permission from the photographer.

It's important to note that a print release is distinct from copyright ownership. While clients receive the right to print and share their images, the photographer retains the copyright, which includes the exclusive rights to reproduce, distribute, and display the photos for commercial purposes. We do not sell copyrights outright as part of our standard packages; any arrangement for acquiring copyright ownership would require a separate agreement and additional payment beyond the session or event costs.

Should you have any specific questions about print releases or copyright, feel free to reach out—we're here to ensure you understand and enjoy your photography experience fully.

What are your payment terms and methods?

Our payment terms ensure a streamlined booking process and smooth execution of your session or event. A non-refundable retainer of 25% is required at the time of booking to confirm your reservation. This retainer secures your date and ensures our availability for your photography needs. The remaining balance is due no later than 7 days prior to your session or event date. Please note that portraits, including sneak peeks, will not be provided until the final payment is made. Once services have been rendered, all payments are non-refundable.

We accept payments via Zelle, Venmo, cash, or check. However, please be aware that if a check is bounced, the client is responsible for any fees incurred by the bank to the photographer. Failure to resolve this prior to the session or event may result in contract cancellation. Should you have any questions or need further clarification, feel free to reach out—we're here to assist you every step of the way.

What happens if the weather is bad on the day of our outdoor shoot?

If inclement weather occurs on the scheduled day of your outdoor shoot, we prioritize your comfort and safety. You have the option to reschedule for another day that better suits your preferences. If the session must proceed due to specific client requirements, we assess the situation and proceed accordingly. However, if weather conditions pose a risk to safety, we prioritize rescheduling for a safer time. Our goal is to ensure your session is enjoyable and captures your moments beautifully under optimal conditions.

What is your photography style?

My photography style is natural and focused on capturing authentic moments. I strive to preserve the genuine essence of each subject, ensuring that portraits reflect a true likeness and the emotions of the moment. Whether it's a wedding, event, or portrait session, I aim to create images that resonate with the natural beauty and authenticity of the occasion.

Can we order prints or albums directly through you?

Yes, you can order prints and albums directly through us. Our online digital gallery offers printing options through our partnered photo lab, allowing you to order prints of various sizes and formats conveniently.

We also provide album options designed to suit your preferences. You have the choice to build albums yourself directly through our platform. For a more luxurious and professional presentation, we offer a service where we design and create albums with premium materials and craftsmanship, ensuring your photographs are elegantly showcased. This service incurs an additional charge to reflect the high-quality finish and personalized touch.

If you have any specific preferences or need assistance with ordering prints or albums, please feel free to reach out. We're dedicated to helping you preserve and enjoy your cherished memories with the utmost care and quality.
