FAQ

How do I book a photoshoot or event with you?

For Standard or Extended portrait sessions and event inquiries, please fill out a contact form and I will respond with availability, and details. I often like to reach out by phone and chat to get to know you and your vision for your session or event a bit better. If you decide to move forward with booking, I will then create a custom booking link for you with a contract attached.


Weekday morning sessions and mini sessions are available for self-booking online. They are listed in the "Upcoming Minis and Announcements" section below. Please click on the "Book Now" button to be redirected to the self-booking site.

Are the travel expenses included in your packages?

Travel expenses are included in my package within 25 miles of my base location, which is in Concord, California. Additional travel fees are added if the session or event exceeds the 25 mile radius.

What should I wear for my photoshoot?

Check out my subpage under What To Know titled "Style Guide"! Here you will find pointers on styling your session! But to sum it up, solids and neutral colors are best! Wear what makes you comfortable. And lastly, dress for the weather!

do you require a deposit?

 

Yes. I do require a deposit to secure your session or event date and time. If a cancellation must occur, the deposit is non - refundable. However, if the session or event is rescheduled within a month of the cancellation, the deposit can be used towards the rescheduled session. Reschedules after 1 month will require a new deposit. Assuming no cancellations or reschedules occur, deposits are deducted from the total cost of your session or event. The only exception are mini sessions. These sessions are paid in full upon booking, and the cancellation/reschedule policy still applies.
