Alex L. says, "Cheshire was AMAZING! Seriously, I cannot recommend him highly enough. Here's why I loved working with Cheshire: 1) Creative: I wanted to do kind of a "twist" on traditional boudoir but didn't know exactly what that meant. Cheshire helped me brainstorm, create a vision, and bring it to life! 2) Teammate: This truly felt like a creative partnership, not a service. Cheshire was there every step of the way: to answer questions, provide inspiration, help me make decisions, etc. 3) Accommodating: I was apprehensive at first about doing a Boudoir photoshoot in general, but Cheshire not only made me feel comfortable...he allowed me to THRIVE! I ended up doing shots I never thought I would do just because he was so comforting the entire time. 4) Above and beyond: Cheshire really goes above and beyond in making the shoot/final products everything I wanted. From going out on the spot during the shoot to get a rare type of fabric we needed, to finding the perfect secluded local outdoor space, to editing things to be exactly how I was envisioning....I was just constantly impressed with the level of detail and length Cheshire would go to to make his clients happy. 5) Real: Compared to other boudoir photographers, Cheshire is NOT over the top with his process or prices. I really appreciate how he values his clients' time and money. Seriously - just hire him!! You won't regret it :) " Read more

Yosemite B. says, "Jody is tremendously talented and simply a pleasure to work with. We were married in the woods and she readily adapted to all settings--live bands and dancing to serene moments of joy and reflection-- as well as to a host of children in motion. Her photographs were not only beautiful, but told a magical story which enhances our memories. Jody's presence was amazing and never intrusive. She had the gift of being in the right place at the right time without us noticing! In addition, by the end of all events, our guests wanted to be friends with her too! Her keen eye, gift at putting the story together visually and her wonderful energy make Jody a dream to work with! ~Yosemite Bride" Read more

Your photography questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Fash.

How much does a photographer cost?

The average cost to hire a photographer is $100 to $250 per hour, depending on their experience. However, photography prices vary significantly depending on the type of event or photo session:

Do you tip photographers?

The standard tipping etiquette for photographers depends on the type of photo session or event and how happy you are with the photographer's service:

  • Tip a wedding photographer $50 to $200 if the photographer exceeds your expectations. If the photographer works with a second shooter, be sure to tip the second photographer separately.
  • Consider tipping a family portrait photographer, pet photographer, or newborn photographer if you're happy with the photo session. However, tipping is not expected for family portraits taken at a big box store like JC Penney or Wal-Mart.
  • Tipping a photographer is not expected for headshots, commercial photography, real estate photography, or architectural photos.

If you're happy with the photographer's service, post a positive review online and share their photos on your social media.

How can I save money on a photographer?

Follow these tips to save money when you hire a photographer:

  • Book a "mini-session" – a shorter photo session that lasts only 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Choose your favorite photographers and follow them on social media. Some photographers may provide deals and exclusive offers.
  • Hire a less experienced photographer. However, be sure to review their portfolio to confirm they have enough skill to meet your photo needs.
  • Purchase prints from an online retailer instead of ordering them from the photographer.
  • Bundle multiple photo sessions for a discounted price. Some wedding photographers bundle engagement and wedding photos. Other photographers offer a bundle for newborn photos plus additional sessions as your child grows.

How far in advance should I book a photographer?

Book a wedding photographer as early as possible, ideally as soon as you've confirmed the date with your venue. Headshot, commercial, pet, and family portrait photographers typically don't require as much advanced notice. However, a popular, in-demand photographer may be booked out several months in advance.

How can I find the best photographer near me?

Follow these guidelines when searching for a photographer to ensure you find one who is the best match for you:

  • Look for photographers who specialize in the type of photography you want. A photographer who specializes in weddings won't be the best choice for a newborn baby photo shoot, and vice versa.
  • Review their online portfolios to confirm you like their photography style and aesthetic.
  • Read photographer reviews on Fash and Google.
  • Get a contract in writing before making a deposit.
  • Discuss the photo usage and printing rights to confirm how both you and the photographer can use the images. Photographers typically retain the copyright to the images, allowing them to use the photos for marketing and social media.

What questions should I ask a photographer?

Ask these questions to help you choose the best photographer for your needs:

  • How long have you been in business?
  • What type of photography do you specialize in?
  • What is your photography style?
  • Do you have an online portfolio I can view?
  • How far in advance should I book my photo shoot?
  • What deposit do you require, and is it refundable?
  • Do you have a photo studio? If not, where will you take the photos?
  • What should I do to prepare for the photo session?
  • How will you deliver the final photos to me?
  • How long will it take to get the photos?
  • Do you offer printed items or photo albums?
  • Who owns the rights to the photos?
  • Will you use my images on social media or your website portfolio?

If you're thinking about doing a Boudoir shoot I cannot recommend Oaktown Boudoir enough. Cheshire (photographer) is extremely kind, communicative and professional. The makeup artist/hair stylist he works with is also amazing and totally worth the extra fee. I booked a shoot with Cheshire to celebrate my 30th birthday in an attempt to embrace my body and increase my self love a bit. I was a bit nervous, because I absolutely HATE taking photos and I tend to look super awkward in them. But Cheshire immediately put me at ease and guided me through the shoot which resulted in some amazing shots. I now have a cute leather bound book of my boudoir shots, a massive black and white print of my boobies on my wall and some great photos for social media to share (yes..you don't have to get naked in ALL your boudoir photos, haha).

Jody is the most amazing wedding photographer EVER. There were so many incredible pictures – too many to choose from so we ordered them all! Our pictures were truly pieces of art, not just photos. Jody was very professional and walked through what was important to us before the wedding so she was sure to capture all the shots we wanted. She was great with the parents and grandparents. So many of my friends have said to me “I wish I knew your photographer when we got married, she did such an unbelievable job”. Her photojournalist style captured our love in every picture and documented the joy in our family and friends who celebrated with us.
