FAQ's
What location should I choose? What should I wear?
We will discuss all of this and more at your personalized planning session! You'll even leave with a client guide that will walk you through everything, and is filled with lots of tips for having an amazing photoshoot!
Do I need to pay a deposit?
Yes. Once we agree on an appointment time/date, you must pay a deposit of 20% of your total cost to solidify the appointment. The deposit can be done via Cash App, PayPal, Venmo, Square card reader, ApplePay, or through Zelle QuickPay (through your bank app). The deposit is subtracted from your total due amount. The remaining amount must be paid at the completion of the session.
What's the best way to prepare for my image reveal & ordering session?
Be sure to take a look around your home and get an idea of the spaces you'd like to fill with your new photos! You can even take a picture of the walls you have in mind, and we can use our software to show you exactly how the art will look in that space. This will also help us determine the exact size of the wall art you need.
It also helps to bring a list of friends & family that you'd like to gift some prints to! Having all of these things done ahead of time helps your ordering session go smoothly and quickly!
How many images do I get?
You only buy the images you love! Once we narrow down your favorites together, then we will decide just what to do with each of them. Some we will print as gifts, some will become wall art, and some we can display in a beautiful album. In person you'll be able to see, touch, and feel samples of everything so you can make the best decisions for your needs!
As a bonus gift, you will also receive complimentary web-sized digital versions of every photo you purchase!
Who should come to the image reveal & ordering session?
All decision makers should attend, since the order will be placed at this appointment and payment will made at that time.
How long will my image reveal & ordering session be?
Plan for around 1.5 hours for your appointment.
How long will it take for my art to come in?
Approximately 4-6 weeks after your ordering session. Once your art is delivered, we will personally check it all for quality, and then set up a time to hand deliver (and install, if needed), your custom artwork!
Digital files will be fully edited and delivered via online gallery within 15 business days.
Do you offer rush delivery?
If you need your photo gallery delivered faster than our standard time, you can pay an additional fee for a faster turnaround. This fee will be assessed on an individual basis and will be calculated based on the needs of each circumstance. Please note that the fee will be a minimum of $50. Please contact us if you need rush delivery, and we will quote you for the additional fee.
(a few Extra details)
Group Size
*Please Note: for groups with more than 5 people, an additional $10/person will be charged due to increased workload of photographing large groups. Extra large groups can be discussed in consultation. Some locations may require additional cost due to distance required to travel.
Extended Sessions
Extended sessions are available upon request, and will be quoted based off of the needs of your session. If you have need of an extended session, please contact our team to discuss!
Editing
All delivered images now receive full skin retouching which includes: removal of blemishes, fly away hairs, skin smoothing, under eye lightening & smoothing, double chin adjustments, mild teeth whitening, sharpening, and color correction! We also remove any objects or people in the background that are distracting to the eye! Some extensive editing beyond this may be possible. If you are interested in more extensive edits, please contact our team for a quote.
Small Children
It can be quite the challenge photographing little ones! Some extra care may need to be taken to ensure we can get some great family portraits for you! This may include: a scheduled nap time, snack/treat bribes, favorite toys, or you joining me making silly faces and doing silly dances! Because it can take a significant amount of additional work for multiple small children, we reserve the right to charge an additional $25 fee for multiple small children in a session. This will not be a surprise fee and you will be notified in advance!
