f a q s
Q// Do I have to wear monochrome neutral colors for my session?
Yes, that is the dress code for this particular studio offering.
Q// Can this be a family session, engagement session, or kids session?
This session is for adult individuals and brand teams only.
Q// I don’t usually wear makeup, it’s ok to shoot without it right?
Absolutely LOVE a natural beauty, but as a photographer I do have to tell ya: no makeup on your face does not translate on camera as the ‘fresh and natural’ look you think it might. It is recommended that after you invest in a professional makeup artist when taking professional photos. Getting your makeup done doesn’t always mean purple eyeshadow and a bold red lip. Makeup artists can do anything, including a natural, clean look that translates on camera in the way that I’m sure you’re thinking ‘no makeup’ will. Of course there are exceptions: if you have no discoloration, no blemishes, no dark spots, and no pores, then by all means…
If you need recommendations, please email us.
Q// Can my MUA do my makeup in the studio prior to my session?
You can purchase early studio access as an add-on before checkout.
Q// Will you retouch my images, remove my wrinkles, erase my pimples, make me skinnier, etc?
Basic blemish removal and fixing wayward hair strands and curls is included in the base rate. More in depth retouching such as wrinkle removal (on face or clothes), smoothing out of makeup, bags under your eye, red eye, teeth whitening, etc. may require an additional fee.

Q// What if you have to re-schedule my session?
It is rare that we re-schedule sessions, however we do reserve the right to re-schedule your session. In the event that we do need to re-schedule your session (for example: act of god, health issue, a government shelter-in-place order, it is not safe to get to you, etc), we will notify you via email with as much advance notice as we possibly can. Your session will be re-scheduled at no additional fee.
Q// Can I bring my product with me to shoot?
We can take lifestyle images with your product (ex: you holding your product) but individual product photography is not included in the base rate.
Q// I would be considered high-profile, can you hold off on posting any of my images/videos until they've been published to maintain exclusivity?
Please make this request prior to booking so that I can send you a custom agreement.

The standard image license allows you to digitally post, and print your images/videos but copyright ownership is not transferable without an additional fee.
Q// What if a major brand I’m partnering with wants to use my photo/video? What if someone wants to print me in their book? What if a major brand wants to use my photo/video for one of their campaigns? What if I want to use one of my photos for the cover of my book?
An additional usage license will need to be purchased for non-organic usage such as those.
