​
Question: What happens if there is going to be unfortunate weather during our outdoor session?
Answer: We would choose another date that works for both of us. No additional fee or deposit necessary. I always keep a close eye on the weather at all times. If you're scheduled for a session with me a week from now and it is predicting rain, we will decide either the day or a few days before to reschedule or not. If you choose to keep the same day and revert to studio, I can check the studio's availability but it is not always guaranteed.
​
​
Question: What time of day do you shoot for outdoor sessions?
Answer: I always try my best to book my sessions around sunset (golden-hour) time. I do this for best lighting. When the sun is too high, it could mean unwanted shadows or overexposure that can be very difficult to edit (especially beach sessions); however, I am still happy to accommodate with clients' requests and have the necessary equipment to do so. I understand sunset time can be too late for children, especially during the summer. But we can absolutely make whatever time work! Hopefully we can get lucky with an overcast day so the sun won't be an issue! Studio and other indoor sessions do not count for sunset times. I can shoot any time of day for them!
​
​
Question: Do you work with children/adults with disabilities and would our session location have easy parking and short walking distance?
Answer: Absolutely! When I am made aware of your situation, I am more than happy to accommodate to your needs! I have plenty of locations to choose from with easy parking and short walking distance.
​
​
Question: Are you LGBTQ+ friendly?
Answer: 10000% yes!
​
​
Question: Am I allowed to request additional editing/tweaking on some images?
For example - B+W image to color or vice versa, etc.
Answer: Absolutely! I want you to LOVE every image!
​
​
Question: Can I request specific poses that I've seen on Pinterest or used before in another session?
Answer: Of course! This is your session, your vision. Any idea is welcome and also encouraged!!
​
​
Question: Are you going to post my images on social media?
Answer: I do post some of my sessions on either my Instagram, Facebook, my Google page, website etc; however, I always always always ask my client's permission first. If you do not want your images posted or shared, it is no problem at all, no one will see your images but me.
​
​
Question: Can I bring an extra family member or friend to come along the session to help with my child or pet?
Answer: Of course! That is always acceptable and encouraged!
​
​
Question: Can you remove unwanted body scars, birthmarks, acne, eczema, etc?
Answer: Yes I can! I have had over 8 years experience with editing and removing objects and imperfections.
​
​
Question: What if I don't have any locations in mind for my session?
Answer: Not a problem at all. I have over 30 beautiful spots to choose from in every town in South Jersey and it grows every year! If you do not want to travel a far distance, I can easily choose a spot in your town.
​
​
Question: How do you choose a location for me aesthetic-wise?
Answer: Simple! I always ask what kind of aesthetic you and your family are interested in. Whether that is beach, lake, woodsy, field, flowers, city, etc. I have specific locations for all. If you are unsure, I can offer suggestions and images of certain locations.
​
​
Question: How do headshots/branding sessions work?
Answer: Headshots can either be done in studio, client's home, or outdoors. Branding sessions are usually done in studio or client's home/business location.
​
​
Question: How do boudoir sessions work?
Answer: Boudoir sessions take place in an indoor session; either studio or client's home. They could be for brides, expecting mothers, just for fun or a little self-confidence boost! It can understandably be a little nerve-wracking, but I always do my very best to make my clients feel as comfortable as possible and let them go at their own pace. Zero pressure, zero judgement, 100% privacy, and of course a fun time!
​
​
Question: How will my gallery be sent?
Answer: Via email!
​
​
Question: Are there print options?
Answer: Yes! Your gallery will be uploaded to a site called 'Pic-Time'. Below the images, you will see a store where you can purchase prints, canvases, ornaments, pillows, blankets, etc. Prints and other items are unfortunately not included in my session total.
​
​
Question: Do you offer gift certificates? Do they expire? Can they be used for any occasion?
Answer: Yes I do! Just inquire on this website as if you are booking a session. I would then reach out to you for session details you wish to purchase for someone. After all the details are settled, I would need the total payment up front via Venmo (linked to 'Investment' page), then I would create your personalized certificate and send it to your preferred email. All you would have to do is print it out!
My certificates expire after one year. That means your loved one has that whole year after receiving the certificate to book with me.
Gift certificates can be used for any occasion excluding weddings and events.
*Travel fee and studio fee not included in the certificate price. (See 'Investment' page for more information). If your loved one chooses a location that requires an hour or two drive, or if they choose a studio session, it would be up to you or them to settle the fee. Travel fee can be accepted day of session via Venmo, cash or check. Studio fee is required day of booking via Venmo.
​
​
Question: Do you provide outfits or do you have outfit inspos?
Answer: I do not provide outfits, that is all up to you! However, I can provide outfit inspos that I believe would go well with session location, time of year, and occasion.
​
​
Question: When is the best time to book?
Answer: I am a full-time photographer. That means I always have flexible availability. You can book a session for a week, a month, a year, or even 2+ years in advance!
*Daylight savings/Holiday season may affect this.
​
​
Question: Should I book my newborn session before, during, or after my maternity session?
Answer: As previously stated above, I have flexible availability, especially for indoor sessions. There is zero pressure. I encourage you to wait until after your baby is born to book. Don't worry, I will have an open slot for you!!
​
​
Question: What is peak age for newborn sessions?
Answer: I suggest 1-3 weeks after birth; however, there is no right answer. It is your choice! I understand the fatigue and postpartum that is involved, so there is absolutely no pressure or rush! Take care of yourself first so you can fully enjoy your session later.
​
​
Question: What if I don't have the best lighting in my home for indoor/newborn sessions?
Answer: No worries! I bring my flash with me for every session. The flash is not harsh, and is always directed at the ceiling. I adjust the settings for a calmer look.
​
​
Question: Will my 20% deposit be useful if I choose to reschedule for a later date?
Answer: Absolutely! As long as it is within that year, it will be fine.
​
​
Question: Can I request the raw images?
Answer: Unfortunately no. My editing is an art that I've spent years perfecting. If you hired me because you like how my work looks, that is exactly what you'll receive back. However, if you need me to tweak some of my edits; for example, brighten, darken, add or subtract warmth, etc, I can absolutely accommodate.
