I will talk about the before, during and after steps of your portrait session
Consultation and Booking
The process begins with a consultation meeting.
We do this by meeting in person or by talking on the telephone.
An in person meeting gives you an opportunity to look at some of the products available for purchase when your photos are ready for viewing.
We talk about what you would like the end result of your photo session to be like. Most people browse through my photos and see specific effects they like. I use different textures and overlays and softening effects to add an artistic look. You may prefer to have your photographs in black and white or sepia.
If you are thinking about having a wall portrait, it’s a good time to think ahead of what kind of artistic effect you may prefer.
A 50% deposit of your session fee is required to book your session. The remaining balance is due the day of your photo session.
The Photo Session
Once details of your photo session have been determined, we meet at the agreed upon location.
For Family Sessions, I take photos of the entire family together in different poses. I then take separate photos of the children and different variations of different family members together. I take both posed and actions shots. This all depends on what was agreed upon beforehand.
For Beautiful You Sessions for women, a variety of poses will be taken. Headshots, three quarter length and full shots (if that’s what you want) will be taken. Posed and action shots will be taken which include clothing changes.
Viewing Session
Viewing sessions are booked two weeks after your photo session. We meet in person. You can invite family, spouse or a friend. You decide which photos you want.
Your order must be paid in full before I send out your order.
Depending on what you decide as your final order, it may take up to two weeks or more for your order to arrive. Certain items will take longer than others.
When your beautiful photographs arrive, I will call you and let you know. We then arrange a convenient time I can deliver them to you.
