FAQs

+ Do I need to have modeling experience to create great photographs?

No, I help direct and pose the client(s) to achieve flattering, yet natural images. I also aim to create a fun and comfortable photo experience which leads to great results.

+ Can I change wardrobes during my photo shoot?

Yes, 2 outfits are feasible in a 1 hour photo session.

I suggest wearing anything that makes you feel comfortable and confident. Some examples of outfits are bodysuit, lacey bra and underwear, cozy open sweater, oversized t-shirt or blanket/bedsheet coverup. Nudity is also an option.

+ How many images do I receive in my gallery?

I deliver 1 edited image for a mini portrait shoot and 10 edited images for a full hour portrait shoot. I focus on quality over quantity.

+ How long does it take to receive my complete photo gallery?

My editing turnaround depends on the time of year and type of session. For the most part, I aim to finish and complete the photo gallery in 2-4 weeks from the photo session date.

+ How long are my images available through my Smugmug gallery link?

Your link will be active for approximately 6 months. Please download and backup your gallery images to your devices as soon as possible.

+ What is your availability?

Booking weeks to months in advance is key. I do get cancelations and can accommodate a few last minute bookings, but these are rare. I try to keep a flexible schedule; I am usually available Monday-Saturday. I also like to read and reply to any emails/messages within a couple days.

+ Do I need to put down a deposit?

Yes, I require a non-refundable $100 (in most cases) deposit to hold your session date. The remaining is due on the day of the photo shoot. If the weather isn't cooperating on the photo shoot date, we can certainly reschedule without an additional charge.

+ How do I pay?

I accept cash or etransfers.

+ Do you offer mini photo shoots?

I do, on occasion. I will offer and advertise mini sessions for special deals, dates or holidays. This is a 30 minute shoot for $175 which includes 1 edited image.

+ Do you have your own studio?

No, unfortunately I don't have a studio space at the moment. I offer in-home or outdoor shoots. I'm also willing to create in a rental space, yet the client is responsible for the rental fees.

+ Do you travel for photo shoots?

I enjoy traveling and will as long as provincial/federal rules and restrictions allow. I usually charge extra for fuel and travel time that's outside of the greater Fredericton, NB area. I am also available internationally- flights, accommodations and any additional travel fees must be covered by the client for destination shoots.

+ Do I have to purchase prints from you?

No, you do not have to buy prints through me, but you can order them for an additional cost. I do recommend printing at least some of your images, and if you do print elsewhere, I highly suggest using a quality printing shop.

Yes, absolutely feel free to share your digital images; I would really appreciate the recognition and being credited for my work.

+ What are your safety precautions during COVID?

I will wear a mask during my close interactions with clients and I can limit physical contact. I also keep hand sanitizer on me at all times.
