Frequently Asked Questions
I'm not sure about the styling or what I should wear for my shoot?
Wear something you're comfortable in and makes you feel good! I suggest avoiding large graphics, overly bright colours or big prints - we want to avoid anything clashing or distracting from your beautiful face! This is about capturing you doing you! So dress however you feel best and dress for the concept - don’t worry we can discuss specifics by email if you need any more advice.
Where can we shoot?
The sky's the limit! We can work together to create a creative concept and bring the plan to life.
Can we shoot somewhere outdoors?
Absolutely! I love shooting outdoors, I know many beautiful places around Canberra and many other Australian cities that are perfect for portraits sessions.
My house isn’t great, are you sure we can shoot there?
It's amazing how things can be made to work for photos! As long as we can find some areas with decent light the pictures will look great.
My kids won’t sit still, will that be a problem?
Kids rarely sit still, that’s why we take relaxed photos of you playing together… moving isn’t an issue. Just have fun and let me do the work to capture the moments!
I'd love to get my pet involved, is that okay?
Absolutely! Fur babies are a part of the family, so why not include them in your photos (please note pets are not allowed in national park and certain nature reserves in Australia).
I don't know how to pose or look natural in front of the camera, does that matter?
Don't worry about posing! I'm completely comfortable giving you as much or as little direction as you like to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I promise you'll be feeling natural in no time!
How long until I get my photos?
Depending on the category of photoshoot you are doing, it usually takes about a week to get your online gallery of final edits for couples, maternity and family sessions. For boudoir, fashion, fine art and promotional sessions it will be up to two weeks for you to receive final edits of once you have chosen the images you would like, as a higher level of editing and high end retouching are included in these shoots.
How will my photos be delivered?
Your images selection gallery will be sent to you in a link by email to an online, password protected gallery. From there you will chose your favourites that you would like a copy of which will then be emailed to you for digital download.
Will you post my photos on your social media or website?
We will never post anything without your explicit permission. If you're happy for some of your images to be shared, we will have a discussion about which specific images you are okay with sharing.
I'm not sure what sort of images I need to promote myself/my business, can you help with the concept?
Yes! We love helping brainstorm creative concepts to create the perfect branding for you or your business.
