10 Questions To Ask your Photographer
6. How long till I get my images?
This depends on the type of shoot. I love to try and get my clients their images as soon as possible. Two to Three weeks is the turn around time for a regular session . For weddings and or longer events will be 6 - 8 weeks.
7. What is your photography style?
Lifestyle portraits that are very fun, candid, and in the moment. I like to capture my clients in their environment. Guiding my clients with poses / prompts that capture movement, emotion, and life in my images. I love to capture the in between moments that you wouldn’t expect. As for editing my images I try to stay true to color but also on the warmer side.
8. I'm not sure how I want my shoot to go. Can you help come up with ideas?
I love helping my clients come up with themes for their shoot. I start off by asking a few questions about what you think you would like and then give suggestions based off that. Suggestions on things like location, props, time of day, outfits etc. I love building shoots with my clients.
9. Do you travel?
YES! I will travel anywhere my client wants me to. I am based in Massachusetts but I would hop on plane in heartbeat to shoot! I include travel up to 25miles from Sagamore Beach, MA.
10. Why should I hire you?
I like to think you’re not just hiring me to take your photo and leave. I like to create relationships with my clients and really get to know and understand them. I do this so that not only do they feel comfortable during the shoot but so they know I have their back and will produce the best work possible. I like to create memories through my photography that will last a lifetime. Theres something so special to me about capturing the milestones in your life and I can’t wait to be there for the journey.
1.What will you do to protect and back up my images?
During your session I am shooting with a camera that has two sd slots which means that your images are being backed up right as I shoot onto the backup card. After every shoot I backup my images onto a second hard drive to ensure that I will always have a copy of your images. In case of hard drive failure I do not delete any images off of my sd card until my client has received their images.
2. Do you edit the images?
After every shoot I will go through each image and pick the best ones. I will then edit each image in Lightroom or Photoshop. I always give my clients edited finished images. As a photographer editing is half the job!! So you will never receive an unedited image. This also means that I don’t offer the raws. Capturing the moment and editing the images are a package deal.
3. How did you get into photography?
Photography was always passion of mine. When I got my first camera I loved to capture landscapes, nature, and my friends. I would take pictures of everything that inspired me. I never thought of making it into a career until I was graduating high school. I realized photography was my true passion and that I had to chase my dreams.
4. What type of locations do you shoot at?
Any location that fits the idea of the shoot. Beaches, forests, grassy fields, parks, really I will go anywhere. I also offer in home shoots which means that I travel to you! You can have a shoot from the comfort of your own home. These are great because I feel clients are really comforted by their own space. This creates a whole different feel to the images that I love so much.
5. How will I get my images?
After every shoot I offer the final images through an online gallery download. Its secure and only you can see your images. You can download the whole gallery, select your favorites, and download single images. The gallery will stay up forever as well so you can always go back to it.
