Overall, it is a beautiful way to capture your family's love, connection, and beauty. Let me help you create lasting memories of your family that you'll treasure for a lifetime!
How do I book a photoshoot?
To book a session, please reach out with the type of photoshoot you're interested in and your preferred dates. Once we confirm the date, we will sign a contract to secure the arrangements. Then, we can discuss the details of the shoot more thoroughly. Please note, a $100 retainer is required to finalize your booking.
Do you provide hair and makeup services?
I can recommend professional hair and makeup artists, but the cost of these services is typically not included in the portrait session fee.
Do you help with styling the photo session?
I am happy to help with styling our session. I provide a lot of resources such as family look guides and inspiration boards. You can also borrow items from my photo closet for free.
Can I request a specific location for my portrait session?
Yes, we can work with you to select a location that best suits your needs and preferences. I can also recommend locations based on the type of portrait you want.
I have never had a photoshoot before and can't pose. Do you help with posing?
I will help you with poses during the session, many of my clients have never had photoshoots before. In fact, the more natural shots we take the better. I will be guiding you with simple tasks like “walk this way, play with your hair, name what you’ve had for breakfast with a German accent etc.”
How long does it take to receive the final images?
I will provide about 5 teasers within 2 business days of our session. These will be shared with you via a shared folder. The rest of your images will be done in 2 weeks. If you require your images sooner, there is an option to purchase express editing for $150. Your photos will be ready in 48 hours.
What image formats do you deliver?
Images will be delivered via a shared downloadable folder and will come in two resolutions – for printing and for sharing on social media. I also provide a private online gallery that makes it easy to share with friends and family. The gallery is available for two months.
What about the weather?
It’s Vancouver. It’s so hard to predict the weather here. A 30% chance of rain usually means nothing and a rain icon next to a date doesn’t mean it will rain all day. A 100% chance of rain may mean that the rain will last for 30 min in night. We aim for a date and then 1-2 days before the session date we make a call. A 40% chance of rain and up is when I keep an eye on the situation. I also check the hourly forecast. I keep at least two weekend spots open per month for weather rescheduling.
Can I keep our photoshoot confidential?
I love sharing my work online, so a signed model release is required for each session. If you absolutely need to keep our photoshoot confidential, please let me know before booking the session. Please consider that your photos allow photographers to grow their businesses organically and keep portfolios up to date.
Do you offer gift certificates for portrait sessions?
Yes, I offer gift certificates (both digital and printed) that can be customized to the your needs.
