PRE-PHOTOSHOOT
- If you want to chat about what you're looking for, or ready to schedule, you can reach out to me via my CONTACT PAGE.
- Everyone is different, so you can let me know how you prefer to be contacted, whether it's email, text, phone call, or (GASP!) in-person!
- Once your session is booked, I will email you a questionnaire to iron out all the details that we haven't already discussed. There may be questions regarding logistics, but the main purpose is to give me a sense of who you are, your style, and what you want as your end result.
- I will customize a web page just for you, containing tips and details specific to your shoot.
- I will be available to answer any questions or make any changes leading up to the shoot.
THE PHOTOSHOOT
- It's YOUR time, YOUR session, YOUR memories.
- Whether you want "wham, bam, thank you ma'am!" or a leisurely good time, I'll capture it.
- I love an adventure! Let's make memories and have a good time. Your session should not be simply posing. I want you to have a good time, so that your photos bring back good memories. If it means going a little past our designated time... oh well. (Unless we're in a venue with a time limit of course.)
POST PHOTOSHOOT
- Within 3 days of your session, you will receive access to your online gallery which will contain a small batch of "sneak peak" photos.
- Within 6 weeks (usually closer to 3 weeks), your complete gallery of edited photos will be updated.
- You can also order PRODUCTS through me. Anything from fine art prints, framed artwork, albums, and wall art on various mediums (wood, metal, etc.)
YOUR GALLERY
- You will be able to download high resolution versions of all your photos as many times as you would like.
- Your gallery will be active for a minimum of two months.
- There will be a link on your gallery page for purchasing products directly through me.
- You can share your gallery link with whomever you choose, or a password can be added should you prefer it to be private.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Where are you located?
-
I am based in fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada. I am perfectly fine traveling a few hours outside of town. Any further is considered on a case-by-case basis due to familial responsibilities.
-
Can I receive the RAW format of my photos without edits?
-
No. Unedited, raw photos are not a finished product. Without edits, the photos would not have the professional look you desire and would not be something I would be okay with attaching my name to. It is my responsibility to provide you with a finished product, one that you will love, and one that I am proud of.
-
What does "edited" mean?
-
As photographers, we try to optimize settings on scene, such as lighting, color balance, and sharpness. However, what we actually shoot versus what we (and you) envision in our minds is usually different. Thus, we edit. And the editing process can be very lengthy.
For me personally, I edit approximately 10-20% of the photos I take. So, that means I go through a lot of photos and pick out the best of the best to edit. That, in and of itself, is very time intensive.
I'm a perfectionist, so I spend a lot of time looking over each photo with a fine-tooth comb. I get very close in detail; those pet hairs on your jacket disappear, that patch of hair you missed shaving, zits/temporary red marks on your skin, also gone. Lighting, color tones, contrast, sharpness, etc. are carefully adjusted so you look your absolute best. I do not edit so that it does not look like you, rather so that you are proud and confident to display your photos. Once I'm "finished", I look through them all again on another day, so that I have fresh eyes looking for things I may have missed and ensuring color tones look just right.
