FAQ:
Can I bring my dog? Um...yes please! I do ask you to bring someone with you for your pet as they will need attention when not in the shots. Typically we ask you to bring your pet either the first or last ten minutes of the session. Let us know that you are bring a pet with you, some locations may have rules regarding pets. of audiences.
Can we do an outfit change? The sessions are typically 60 minutes so yes, as long as you are quick about it. There is limited places to change as these are outdoor public locations and bathrooms tend to be locked. Many times clients that chose to do a change of cloths have to do a change in the car.
Should I spray tan before my session? We ask that you your skin tone is as close to natural as possible. Men typically don’t spray tan, so you could end up looking more orange in camera when photographed next to someone without a spray tan.
How long before I see images from my session? typically turn around time is two to three weeks (weddings are longer) and you will get an email with a link to view them. They will all be edited and then you will get to chose your favorites from the gallery.
