STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?
Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book a session?
Think seasonally. Clients book anywhere from 1-3 months out. During peak season (Apr-Oct) you may want to consider booking even earlier. Add in 1-2 weeks of planning & 3 weeks of post-production.
I am so uncomfortable in front of a camera…help!
Ah, this is a very common feeling. I like spending the first couple of minutes chatting, hearing about your life & stories and getting settled. I typically start with simple shots to get your jitters out and then it’s creative time. If we get stuck, I have a handy little app that I customize inspiration for each session.
When should I expect to receive my images?
Branding session receive Proofing gallery within 1 week of session. Once you select your final images, the final edited images will be ready within 2 weeks of selection.
Lifestyle sessions receive their final images within 3 weeks of your session, no proofing gallery included.
When should I expect to receive my images?
You'll receive a curated collection of images with plenty of options to choose from.I work really hard not only to capture images but also post-processing & editing. The amount of images will be listed in your Package & there is always an option to purchase more.
How will I receive my images?
Through a password protected online gallery. This is where you can share, download and print your images if you like. You can always POYO (print on your own) with any downloads, you'll receive a Print Release.
How long is a typical session.
Branding sessions range from 1-8 hours (not kidding!) Outfit changes, relocations & making sure we get a variety of content can all add time. Plan for at least 2 hours.
Lifestyle sessions range from 20-90 minutes. Location and outfit changes can add time as well as kiddo, pet and spouse cooperation.
There is no hard stop time, we’ll wrap up when I feel we have plenty of images.
What should I wear?
What's the difference between branding and lifestyle photography?
Branding Photography is meant for commercial use ie. solo-preneurs, side hustlers, bloggers and mini corporations. Images that are used to gain revenue.
Lifestyle photography is for families, children, pets, seniors and couples. Sessions are captured with more candid, editorial style and less posed.
Where can I use my branding images?
Branding sessions include an unlimited Digital Use License. This is for digital use only meaning social media, websites, blog posts, etc. To use images in print or publications, you'll need a Print Use License (+$)
How do travel fees work?
If a session is located outside of a 15 mile radius from Minneapolis, MN 55408, there will be a small fee added to your final invoice determined by State of Minnesota's Current Mileage Reimbursement rate.
