FAQ

What types of photography do you offer?

Wedding, engagement, couple session, family, lifestyle, portrait, event, and birthday party photography. Whether you're celebrating a milestone, capturing a special moment, or simply looking to preserve precious memories, I'm here to help.

Do you offer studio photography?

While I don’t have a physical studio, I do bring the studio to you! I have a professional black backdrop and lighting equipment that I can set up right in your home. This allows me to create high-quality, studio-style portraits in the comfort of your own space

Do you offer headshot?

Although headshots aren't my main focus, I do offer a package for them. Since I don't have a physical studio, we can either shoot at an outdoor or indoor location of your choice, or I can bring my studio setup to your home. I use professional lighting and a backdrop to create a studio look wherever you are.

What is your turnaround time?

Turnaround time varies based on the package selected. Generally, you can expect your edited photos within 2 weeks. I’ll provide a more precise timeline when we confirm the details of your session.

Where are you based?

I'm based in Fairfax Northern Virginia. But I’m available to travel for sessions both locally (Virginia, Washington D.C., and Maryland), and beyond!

How many images will I receive?

The number of images you’ll receive depends on the package you choose. Each package offers a different selection of fully edited, high-quality images, and I’ll let you know the exact count when we discuss the details of your session.

What should I wear to my photo session?

I recommend wearing something that makes you feel comfortable and confident. Neutral tones and soft colors tend to photograph beautifully, but feel free to express your personal style. Once you book your session, I'll send you a document with detailed outfit tips to help you prepare and make sure you look your best!

I don't know where to go for my shoot. Do you have any suggestions?

Yes, I can definitely help with that! I’d love to assist you in choosing the perfect location for your shoot. Whether you're looking for an outdoor setting or a location with personal significance, I can suggest options that fit the vibe you're going for. Just let me know the style or feel you're aiming for, and we’ll find the ideal spot!

Do you charge a travel fee?

It depends on the distance. Each of my packages includes a set amount of mileage with no travel fee. If your location is beyond that, a small additional fee may apply.

Do you bring backup gear?

Yes, I do. I bring two cameras, three lenses, five batteries, and extra SD cards to every photoshoot. I'm always prepared in case anything unexpected happens.

What gear do you use?

I shoot with a Sony Alpha 7IV and use Sony lenses, including a 24–70mm zoom and a 50mm prime. For backup, I bring my Sony Alpha 6600. For lighting, I use Godox flashes.

Do you give us all of the RAW files?

No, RAW files are unedited and not ready to use. I provide fully edited images so every photo is polished and consistent, showing your day at its very best.

What payment methods are available?

I accept payments via debit or credit card with a 3,1% fee, as well as Zelle without any fee. Let me know which method works best for you, and I'll be happy to assist!

Do you offer a payment plan?

Yes, I do. Payments can be split into installments to make things more flexible. Just let me know what works best for you, and we can set up a plan that fits your needs. However, full payment must be completed before the final photos are delivered.

How is the booking process? What should I expect?

First, reach out to me with a few details about what you’re looking for. Once I receive your message, I’ll get back to you and schedule a quick call. I find it’s the easiest way to answer your questions and get to know your vision.

During the call, we’ll talk about your preferred date and time, the package options, pricing, and your vision for the photoshoot. Once you're ready to book, I’ll send you an email with a contract to sign and the payment info for the retainer fee. After that, your session will officially be booked, and I’ll send you an outfit guide to help you prepare for the shoot.

The remaining balance is due on the day of the photoshoot. I’m always flexible if something comes up, but please note that full payment must be made before I deliver your final photos.

You’ll receive a sneak peek of your session within 5 days so you can see the edits and give feedback. Once approved, I’ll finish editing the rest of your gallery and send you a download link along with a delivery agreement to confirm everything was received.

You'll have up to 14 days to request any adjustments and 180 days to download your gallery.
