FAQs
How far in advance should I schedule my session?
Sessions should be booked no earlier than 2 weeks in advance but I prefer at least 4 weeks so that we can properly plan out your shoot, and be sure that you have plenty of options for current availability.
How do I schedule a session?
Start with a Her Powered Session Success Call where I clarify my process with you and answer any questions you have about my services. A non-refundable $250 Reservation Fee is required to secure your session date and time.
How long will it take to get my photos back?
After your session, I will comb through your photos and carefully select your top images. These images are lightly retouched and presented in your proof gallery within one week. How quickly you receive your final images really depends on you. Once you select your favorite images, you will receive your final retouched high-resolution photos within 2 to 3 weeks.
What is the difference between the proof gallery and finished gallery?
The Proof Gallery is the images from your session. You review them and select final images for editing. Your Finished Gallery is the images you selected, fully edited and ready for download, print and publishing on your website.
Why are digital galleries so expensive?
Digital files can be costly because they are the most valuable and versatile to purchase. With your digital purchase you can make prints of any size plus any number of novelties such as mugs, notebooks, photo books, etc. at any time in the future. Once you have your high-resolution photos, you essentially have no need for me! With that considered, high-resolution digital files are priced accordingly.
Will I need make-up?
Professional makeup is recommended. Natural photo ready makeup is quite different than little to no makeup in real life. While I do edit your images, they are subtle and you will appear as your self. Makeup artist referrals can be provided upon request.
What location will be used?
The session location is finalized during our planning session. I am very conscious to select a location that compliments your wardrobe and session goals. However, I am respectful of location requests if you have an idea of where you would like your session. Please note that you as the client will be responsible for securing any permits or fees associated with using location that require additional fees for locations. I do offer sessions in my private home studio when appropriate and agreed upon by you..
What if there is bad weather?
No worries, we have options… We will either move the session to a new date- OR- we can move forward with the session at a suitable indoor location or covered outdoor location, as available. It really is case-by-case.
What to expect on the day of my session?
To relax and enjoy yourself! I love what I do and I will do my best to put you at ease. Don’t worry about what to do with your hands, I will be there to coach you. Before you know it, you will know all your angles!
