Session Details
4. How far in advance should I book?
The sooner, the better. I typically book out 4 to 6 weeks in advance, or months ahead for weddings, especially during Charleston’s busy spring and fall seasons.
5. How long is a typical session?
Most sessions last 1 to 2 hours, depending on the type. I always make sure there is plenty of time to get comfortable, have fun, and capture all the magic.
6. What should I wear?
No need to stress. After booking, I’ll send you a style guide with tips on what photographs beautifully in Charleston’s stunning locations and how to coordinate outfits without being too matchy.
7. Can I bring props, pets, or people?
Yes, yes, and yes. Just give me a heads-up so I can prepare and make sure everything goes smoothly.
Editing and Delivery
8. Do you edit all of the photos?
Yes. I handpick and professionally edit every final image to match my signature style. I do not deliver RAW or unedited files. The finished product is worth the wait.
9. How long until I get my photos?
Galleries are usually delivered within 2 to 3 weeks, depending on the season and session type. I’ll always keep you updated.
10. How will I receive my photos?
You’ll receive an email with a private online gallery where you can view, download, and share your images. You can also order professional prints or albums directly from your gallery.
Payment and Policies
11. What’s your pricing?
You can find starting prices on my investment page. Packages vary depending on the session. If you do not see exactly what you need, send me a message. I’m happy to create something custom.
12. Do you require a deposit?
Yes. A 50 percent non-refundable deposit is required to reserve your date. For weddings, I require a 500 dollar deposit at booking. The remaining balance is due 10 days before your session.
13. What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
Life happens. If you need to reschedule, just give me at least 2 days’ notice. Deposits are non-refundable but can be applied to a new date.
Bonus
14. I’m awkward in front of the camera. Can you help?
Absolutely. Helping people feel confident and relaxed is one of my superpowers. I’ll guide you with easy prompts and keep the vibe fun, not stiff or overly posed.
15. Can I bring a friend for support?
Of course. Bring your hype crew, but make sure they know it’s your time to shine.
