1. How do I finalize booking?

To officially book your date and time, a signed contract and retainer are required. Upon receiving both, I'll send over my complimentary location and style guide (or wedding guide if finalizing for your wedding)

2. Do you help with planning our session?

Yes! If you need recommendations on locations, what to wear, what time to take photos, or anything else, I can help you make the best decision. I will be there to help answer any of your questions during the planning process.

3. What is your cancellation or rescheduling policy?

All sessions are eligible for rescheduling if needed! We can coordinate the next best date to reschedule your session where we are both available. If a session needs to be cancelled, the retainer fee paid to book is nonrefundable.

4. Do you deliver RAW images?

I do not deliver raw images under any circumstance for weddings or any other session type. Along with being there to document your wedding day, I also handle all of the behind-the-scenes work that goes into delivering a beautiful final gallery so you don't have to worry about a single thing!

5. what if my session is outside san diego?

Any session type that takes place outside of San Diego will incur a travel fee of $0.54/mile. Any session or wedding taking place over 100+ miles from San Diego will require a two night Airbnb or hotel stay. You can contact me for more details about out of state or international inquiries. I'd love to come your way!

6. Can I request specific poses or shots?

Absolutely! If you have a certain set of poses or even a Pinterest board you use for inspiration, please feel free to send them my way. I have an arsenal of different poses and prompts we do during sessions, and I'm happy to include your ideas.

7. What payment methods do you accept?

I accept physical and electronic payment types including Venmo, Zelle, credit or debit card, check, or cash. Card payments will incur a 3% processing fee.

8. How long until I receive the final photos?

For regular lifestyle and couple sessions, the full galleries are delivered within 2 weeks of the session date. For weddings, final galleries are delivered within 10 weeks and sneak peek galleries are delivered within 48 hours.
