Questions people ask
How long does it take?
Most sessions run 60 to 90 minutes. Longer if we're moving between locations.
What should I wear?
Bring two or three options in colours you already feel good in. I'll send guidance once we've picked a location — and no, you don't need to buy anything.
I'm bad at being photographed.
Almost everyone says this. That's what the direction is for — you'll know what to do the whole way through, and the first ten minutes are usually where people stop thinking about it.
When do I get the photos?
A private gallery within two weeks, usually sooner. Faster if you're working to a deadline — just say so.
