WELCOME!

The session is booked! Now what? Here is a guide on what to expect.

QUICK OVERVIEW

  1. We get on the phone for a consult call! I will go over the process, the products I offer, and answer any questions you may have.

  2. We collaborate on planning the shoot. The location, the time, the inspiration, the styling. You do the shopping for wardrobe and make any necessary appointments (hair, makeup, nails, etc.)

  3. It’s shoot day! We have fun and make magic.

  4. We schedule your Ordering Appointment to view your images and order your digitals/products!

LEADING UP TO YOUR SHOOT…

  1. Finalize wardrobe and accessories! Check out my Style Guide here.

  2. Make any necessary appointments- hair, nails, skincare, etc. Note- the body hair you show up with is the body hair that will be photographed, so plan accordingly. Nails specifically will not be edited in.

  3. Rest well the night before your shoot. Try to avoid alcohol and drink lots of water!

  4. Getting your hair/makeup done? Arrive with a clean face and clean hair! Otherwise come hair/makeup ready.

  5. Moisturize your skin!

  6. Be on time! Do what you gotta do to make that happen. Being late will cut into your shoot time, which is not ideal!

  7. Come wearing loose fitting clothes/undergarments to avoid any skin lines.

  8. Cut off ALL tags on lingerie (please make sure to try on all lingerie to make sure it fits before arrival).

  9. Be excited!

DAY OF SHOOT

During your session- Relax and have fun. I promise it will feel like we are hanging out and happen to be having a blast taking photos. I’m a very casual person in general! Don’t be afraid to move, ask for certain poses, or move yourself and let me capture your uniqueness.

FAQ

Will my photos be on the internet?

By default, no! Due to the nature of these photoshoots, images are only posted with explicit permission. You tell me what I can share at your Ordering Appointment. Read my privacy clause here.

What is the Ordering Appointment?

This is an appointment where you get to view all your images! This appointment can happen in person or virtually. We will go through each photo and you will choose your favorites and make any product purchases. I collect payment, and anyone who’s decision is necessary for this investment should be preset at the appointment. This appointment generally lasts about 1.5 hours, although it could be shorter or longer (depending on how decisive you are!) so plan accordingly.

Do I bring my own outfits?

Yes. I assist in the styling of your shoot but you must provide your own outfits.

Is hair and makeup included?

Hair and makeup is not included in your session, but is available to add on to one of my talented artists for $250.

Can you Photoshop me?

All photos go through retouching which includes color toning and getting rid of blemishes/bruising. If you need a nip and tuck here and there, I will absolutely do that with consent. I will not make you look like a different person. Any extreme modifications are not permitted.

Do you deliver RAWs?

Would you order a raw steak at a restaurant and expect to be excited about it? Editing is such a crucial part in my process, so no RAWs are delivered. It is not an accurate representation of my work. 

Where do the shoots take place?

I generally will shoot outdoors or in a studio rental!

Can I bring my friend/partner to my shoot?

If you want to bring a partner or friend, they will have to step out when the actual photoshoot occurs. One-on-one shooting produces the best work, nobody likes an audience!

What if I need to reschedule?

Life happens, I get it! I give one grace reschedule. A reschedule fee of $200 will be implemented if the shoot needs to be rescheduled within 1 week of the shoot date. If a studio was booked for your session, those fees will be collected as well.

I’m not sure what I want to order yet, can I decide at my ordering appointment?

Yes. It’s always nice to have an idea of what you could want - but you can also decide upon seeing the photos. Check out my Product Guide here.

We picked a date! Are we confirmed?

Your date is not confirmed until the session fee is paid! The payment methods I accept are Visa, Mastercard, cash, Venmo, and Zelle.

What is the turnaround time?

Turnaround time for projects is 4 weeks. If you need it expedited, a $250 fee will be applied.

Do you offer refunds?

Due to the custom nature of photography, the session price and any products ordered are non refundable.

How long does the shoot take?

We can take anywhere from 1-3 hours. Due to the creative nature of a photoshoot, I recommend not having any time constraints. Just take the day off!
