FAQ
This is my first photoshoot, what should I know?
Your first professional photoshoot is usually much easier and more relaxed than you expect. You don’t need to know how to pose, your photographer will guide you every step of the way. Wear outfits you feel confident and comfortable in, keeping colors simple and timeless. Arrive a little early so you can settle in, and take care of yourself beforehand so you feel your best. It may feel slightly awkward at first, but that’s completely normal once you relax, the most natural and meaningful moments will come through.
Is there a deposit or retainer required?
Yes, usually the retainer is about 25% -50% of the total session cost.
Can you recommend any good locations?
Absolutely! I love helping clients find the perfect location that fits their vibe. In San Diego, some of my favorites include Balboa Park for its gardens and architecture, Sunset Cliffs for dramatic ocean views, Liberty Station for a modern, textured look, Old Town for historic charm and colorful backdrops, Presidio Park for quiet, intimate greenery, and Little Italy for a stylish urban feel. Tell me the mood you’re going for romantic, bold, soft, or urban and I’ll help pick the spot (or even a hidden gem) that brings your vision to life.
What is your refund policy?
The initial retainer fee due upon singing the contract is NOT refundable. However, if you paid remaining session fees in advance there is a two week minimum notice (per event contract) and a seven day notice (per all other contracts) of cancellation in order to receive full refund.
What are your accepted forms of payment?
Google Pay, Apple Pay, Stripe, and other money transferring systems. Payment plans are available!
How long does it take to get my photos?
Turnaround depends on the session type, but you can generally expect your edited images within 1–3 weeks. All images are delivered digitally in high resolution.
