FAQ
Why should I hire a professional photographer?
There are many benefits working with a professional photographer. During special occasions or events a professional photographer can captures those fleeting moments otherwise missed. Hiring a photographer also ensures everyone is included in the photos so a family member isn't stuck manning the iPhone camera taking pictures. I take pride in producing high-quality images that will last a life time and creates wonderful memories.
What type of photography do you do?
I am a portrait and event photographer. The main types of photography I am hired to photograph are, senior portraits, family portraits, engagements, weddings, events, sports, headshots and lifestyle. However, I'm not limited to just those categories. I love getting creative and collaborating with clients to achieve a look or style they want.
Where are you based and do you travel?
I am based in the beautiful seacoast area on New Hampshire and yes I love to travel! If you want me to photograph your story, and it is outside of a 30 mile radius from where I am based, there will be a separate invoice to cover the additional mileage for travel.
When will we get our photos?
Your will receive an online gallery link with all your photos within maximum 8 weeks (sometimes less depending on the season I photograph your story). You can download the photos from the gallery but also share them, choose your favorites, and also order prints. Editing and proofing photos before they are delivered is the most time-consuming but the most important process to achieve beautiful finished images. Photography is a labor of love and cannot be rushed. After your session I will gave an estimate on when to expect your final edited photos.
How many pictures will we receive?
Each package and photography services I offer includes a set quantity of images for you to download. (Additional images are available for purchase as well as print materials). I always choose quality rather than quantity and will choose the best and more significant photos for you to choose from to tell your story.
Are deposits refundable?
You may cancel up to two weeks prior to your booking and receive a partial refund of $50. No refunds will be issued for a cancellation that is made less than a two weeks prior to the booked date. Re-booking due to incliment weather, sickness or change of plans happens from time to time. I just ask for a 24 hour notice to rearrange my schedule and to get you re-booked. Cancellations or rescheduling that are less than 24 hours in advance causes me to lose valuable time to handle other sessions or to re-book another client for that day.
What is your cancellation/rescheduling policy?
Life happens and rescheduling is needed sometimes for emergencies, sickness, weather, change of event date, unforeseen scheduling conflict etc. I will happily re-book you for a different day with at least a 24 hour notice. Cancellations can be made with a partial refund of the deposit if cancelled two weeks prior to your booking. Any cancellations made without at least a two week notice the deposit will not be refunded.
Do you include digital images?
Digital images are included with every session. All images will be sent to you with a password protected link. Prints are available for purchase through your personalized online gallery.
Do you do studio sessions?
Throughout the year I will offer studio sessions, for a limited time. I do offer my professional travel lighting and backdrop studio for those needing headshots or desire a clean background for their images. This service is available for an additional cost.
