FAQS

Yes! Financing is available on all offers, either in-house or through Klarna.

A retainer holds your date and applies to your balance:

• $50 for a Studio Mini

• $75 for a Studio Full

• $150 for a Custom Session

Your session happens when scheduled regardless of where your payment plan stands, and your files release once your balance is paid.

Your proofing gallery opens on schedule, and you choose your finished images on schedule. If you booked a Custom Session, you'll still have two finished images within 72 hours.

Finishing each image is real work, so your final files release once your balance is paid. If you want them sooner, you can finish your plan early any time.

If a plan stalls, nothing is lost. Your files are held, your gallery pauses, and everything releases whenever you finish. No penalty, no expiry.

Prices and offers are subject to change, but a paid retainer locks in your proposal details so they’ll be honored as written.

My primary shooting location includes access to a robust and versatile client wardrobe (sizes 00-6X) and a wide variety of backdrops, props, and accessories.

It’s located in Groveport, OH.

I am also willing to shoot at other locations (see below).

Absolutely. I’m happy to discuss on-location shooting for custom session clients, such as in someone’s home, at a favorite destination, or outdoors.

Note: The client wardrobe/wigs/accessories will not be available for use at other locations, but I am happy to provide styling guidance as we plan the shoot together.

I’ll also offer some variety for studio sessions, so follow along on social media or sign up for email updates if you want to be the first to know when studio session dates are announced.

Yes, I am willing to travel for shoots! Please book a consultation call with me so we can discuss custom travel pricing and logistics.

Everyone gets one free reschedule, no questions asked. I ask for 24 hour notice so I can adjust accordingly.

In the event of a cancellation, the non-refundable retainer is kept to cover studio and administrative costs.

You are welcome to bring one support person to your shoot (who will not be photographed).

I do ask that you refrain from bringing anyone, including children, who will distract from the session and prevent us from getting your shots.

Session time is limited, so it is important that everyone present supports the goal of making the most of that time.

No, not at all. My job is to help you pose! I’ll be working with you and within your abilities to find posing solutions you like that will translate well on-camera.

Your finished images are high-resolution digital files, fully finished, delivered in your private gallery with a print release.

You choose your own from a gallery of polished proofs. The only exception is the Custom Session Sneak Peek, where you get 2 fully-finished images within 72 hours of your shoot. These are photographer-selected based on client feedback on photos during the session.

Your proofing gallery opens 4 days after a Studio Session, and one week after everything else. You have 14 days to choose, with a reminder at day 7.

If life gets in the way, I finish my favorites and have them ready by day 21, so you're never left waiting.

Want more later? Additional finished images are $50 each or $200 for five, from your gallery, on every session.

After your shoot you’ll be given access to a gallery of lightly edited proofs, which is when you’ll select your favorites. I’ll take your chosen images and finish editing/lightly retouching them.

“Finished” image = a fully edited, high-resolution digital file, delivered in your private gallery for download, with a print release. Yours to keep and print.

Want more than your session includes? They're $50 each or $200 for five.

The client wardrobe contains items ranging in size from 00 to 6X. If you have any questions or concerns about wardrobe sizings, please schedule a consult or contact me and I’d be happy to discuss options and solutions with you.

Your privacy and consent matter to me, so I want to be upfront about how I work.

I don't share photos on my socials or sites without permission. I only use encrypted, privacy-centered cloud-based apps like Proton Drive when backing up your photos, and I'm mindful of how physical hard drives are stored and accessed. I shoot with dual-card cameras so we never rely on one copy of your images, even during our session. To mitigate the risk of catastrophic data loss, I meticulously keep multiple copies of your files on multiple drives across various locations, using software that checks file integrity with every data transfer to prevent file corruption. 

I primarily use editing tools that work entirely locally on my devices.

I intentionally minimize use of tools for editing or retouching that upload your entire photo to a cloud-based AI application, nor do I use your photos to train AI presets without explicit consent.

The main exception is when I select small portions to erase or transform entirely with Lightroom Classic's generative AI feature. As my fantasy and conceptual photography work evolves, I will sometimes use similar features on Photoshop when needed, but only when relevant.

I mostly use these tools to do things like remove distracting people or objects from photos, and I can avoid it entirely if you prefer.

If you ever have questions about how your information or photos are handled, please let me know. I'm always happy to explain.

Your photos are private unless you say otherwise.

Only you can open your gallery unless you decide to share it.

Nothing appears anywhere without your explicit permission, and you can even decide which photos you’re comfortable sharing.

You can also change your mind at any time. Want previously published images removed from my site and/or socials? Just say the word and I’ll handle it.

Silence grants nothing, and permission is not assumed.

Your finished images are yours forever, and you can request permanent deletion at any time after delivery. This entails full deletion from all internal and external hard drives, cloud storage backup services, and client galleries. This is permanent and cannot be undone.
