Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Figure out exactly what my customer is looking for from me so that my photos encompass their vision. Sometime we do this communication via Thumbtack, sometimes via text or email and sometimes-- my clients prefer to have a phone call. What I'm really looking for is a better idea of what these clients want specifially out of their shoot time. I want to make sure that I have as many specifics about the shoot as possible and I want to make sure that I can answer all of the questions that they have of me.

Certification in Advanced Photography.
Certification in Wedding & Event Photography (I & II).
Certified Professional Boudoir Photographer.

Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
