FAQ
1. How would you describe your photography style?
I would say that my style is influenced by the subject! I have a few favorite ways to edit a photo, but I always love to take what the client wants and base my edits off of that.
2. What types of photography services do you offer?
I offer a variety of different sessions in many different catagories and genres of photography. I specialize in theatre, sports, portraits, nature, and many other forms of photography.
3. Do you charge for travelling?
Travel costs are included within my price points, unless your location is 25 miles or more away from my "home base" in Swansea, Massachusetts.
4. How long does it take to recieve photos?
It depends! For shorter sessions, such as headshots or quick portraits, turnaround tends to be 1-2 weeks. For a larger session, you can expect it to be a bit longer, being at MOST - 4 weeks.
5. What happens in incliment weather? how does cancellations work?
In any weather circumstances, I will do my best to make the best of the circumstances. Rain photos can be awesome too! If it comes to incliment it, and if either party has to cancel, we can reschedule, or cancel, with no fees. Cancellations of any other sort must be handled 12 hours prior to the shoot, and down payments cannot be refunded if you cancel later than that.
6. How do you take payement?
I take payment through Venmo, Apple Cash, or Check. Cash is acceptable, but not ideal. Other payment forms cannot be accepted.
How do I get photos?
Each session is different, and has different steps, but here are the basics for each shoot.
Step 01 - Introduction
We get in touch, and plan out locations, dates, times, all of the basics. I talk through your editing style and hear what you want out of the shoot!
Step 02 - The Shoot!
We finally meet up and take the photos! The specifics of the shoot will be discussed beforehand, so all is accounted and planned for.
Step 03 - The Editing Phase.
At this point, the shoot is over, and I start editing your photos. Turnaround times vary based on the size of the shoot, and will be made clear before. At this point I will send you editing styles to see what best fits you.
Step 04 - I Send You the Photos!
At this point, I have finished the photos, and I can finally send out all of the finished photos to you!
