Frequently Asked Questions

how many photos do i get?

This will depend on your package choice. We will send over the best of the best for you to choose your favorites. If you want to purchase extras let us know and we will set that up for you.

What if I want to purchase additional photos?

Additional photos can be purchased we have options to purchase the whole gallery or individual photos.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO RECEIVE MY IMAGES?

Our turnaround time is about 1-2 weeks. During the busy season it can be a bit longer, so let us know during the planning session if you need them by a specific date.


What if I want extra editing done to an image?

I'm a storyteller and I tell your story exactly as is. I will edit out cuts, bruises, and blemishes. Editing such as slimming someone down or making them appear taller, etc. is an extra cost.

Can I cancel or reschedule my photoshoot?

If you wish to cancel or reschedule your photoshoot, please understand that the booking fee will be forfeited, the retainer secures your date ensuring nobody else takes that day or time. Client must pay a rebooking fee to book another date. If there is an emergency please reach out ASAP.

what if it rains or the weather is bad?

I'll keep an eye on the weather. If I feel it would be best to reschedule, I will consult with you and book the first available date that works for all of us. 

CAN I HAVE THE RAWS?

I don’t give anyone RAW/unedited photos. The edit is just as much apart of the work as the actual photo. You want the edit, I promise 🙂


I love helping plan your perfect shoot from location to outfits. We schedule a zoom call so we can share photo ideas and inspiration.
