FAQ

Q. DO I HAVE TO PURCHASE ONE OF THE PRE-BUILT PACKAGES? OR CAN I BUILD MY OWN?

A. Pre-built packages are provided as an easy way for you to decide what you are looking for. However, each individual service is offered à la carte and depending on your needs, we can build a personalized package for you.

 

Q. CAN MY SHOOT INCLUDE MULTIPLE LOCATIONS? Multiple outfits?

A. Want to wear multiple outfits or shoot at several locations? No problem! We can discuss details during the planning process to make sure everything fits the shoot's needs.

 

Q. WHEN YOU SAY “SMALL BATCHES”, HOW SMALL ARE YOU TALKING?

A. I focus on delivering carefully curated photos instead of overwhelming you with hundreds of shots. That way, each one feels special and thoughtful. The number of photos delivered are all dependent on which package or service you choose. However, to give an example: if we were to have a 1hr portrait session, you would on average receive between 15-20 final images. Another example, a wedding, with ceremony, family group shots, couples shots, and a reception, all within 8hrs, would on average receive between 300-600 final images. That is not to say you may not get more images, but it gives you an idea of what to expect for a minimum.

 

Q. HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO GET MY PHOTOS?

A. Of course this also depends on the type of shoot, but on average, you will receive a full gallery within 2-6 weeks (depending on the package). Some packages include highlights within 48hrs from the shoot.

 

Q. DO YOU OFFER PRINTING SERVICES?

A. You may purchase a number of prints and artworks through my Pixieset storefront. More details are outlined in my Terms of Service.

Q. WILL YOU HELP WITH POSING?

A. I will absolutely help guide you and any one else through the process to get the best shots. Often times the best photos are less posed and more natural, so I will do my best to create an environment in which you can truly be yourself and live in the moment.

Q. CAN YOU SHOOT IN RAIN OR BAD WEATHER?

A. I’m happy to shoot in light rain or weather conditions, but if there’s a storm within 10 miles or dangerous weather, I’ll work with you to reschedule. I keep an eye on forecasts, but if you think the weather might interfere, let me know too!

You can read my full rescheduling policy in my Terms of Service.

Q. HOW MUCH RETOUCHING DO YOU DO?

A. Basic retouching of images is included in all packages. This includes minor tweaks like blemish removal, color correction, and smoothing out flyaway hairs.

Additional retouching is also available as an a la carte add-on to any package. This can include full airbrushing, requested color changes, large object removal, or any request not listed included within the basic retouching. Additional retouching items must be outlined clearly by you, in order to achieve the desired outcome.

Q. WHAT IF I HAVE MORE QUESTIONS THAT AREN’T ANSWERED HERE?

A. Got more questions? They may be answered in our Terms of Service. If something’s not covered here or you want to clarify anything, just head to the Contact Page and reach out. I’m happy to help—and if it’s something that could benefit future clients, I’ll add it to the FAQ!
