1. CLOTHING
Clothing is really important for great photos! Try to wear and suggest her to wear solid color or simple pattern clothing. Avoid really bright colors like neons. Choose clothes that don’t wrinkle easily. A flowy dress/dress shirt and pants are always a good option. For longer shoots for changing locations, if she is wearing high heels, I suggest bringing a comfortable pair of shoes. The less things you bring to the shoot the better.
2. ENJOY THE MOMENT
The planning and moment itself can be stressful. Take a deep breath, take a minute and enjoy the moment. I will walk up to you and introduce myself when you are ready. If something went wrong or not as expected, we can always recreate the moment.
3. YOUR FINAL IMAGES
You have 2 options:
1. Let me select the best photos from the shoot and you get them edited 7 days after our shoot
2. I share watermarked images next day after the shoot, you have 7 days to pick your favorites and I deliver them in 7 days after you're done picking.
4. IDEAS AND POSING
Have specific poses, shots, ideas or locations in mind? Feel free to share them before the session so I can make sure you love your results. No worries if not, I’ll help with posing and guide you to the best spots. Keep in mind, we are shooting in a public setting, so certain spots may not be available because of weather, construction so we will arrange a plan B spot just in case.
5. ARRIVAL
I recommend arriving a couples of mins early and walk around a bit. Taxi and uber estimates are often wrong or they can cancel rides. If you’re late, we will need to finish at the originally scheduled end time so it will reduce the time we have to shoot. The photo shoot price will remain as originally agreed upon,
6. EDITING
You’ll receive high-resolution edited JPG images via a password-protected online gallery. Photos will be edited in my signature style, which includes light and color corrections. Only minor touch-ups (e.g. removal of blemishes, wires, trashcans) are included. No other face, body, clothing modifications are included. I remove distracting people from the background, but keep in mind it’s not always possible, especially during peak hours. I do not provide RAW files, but you have the option to purchase all unedited JPG files for €50.
7. WANT A VIDEO?
If you’d like to have a video from our shoot, let me know. I’ll bring a separate camera special for videos and I’ll take small snippets during our shoot. I’ll edit a 30–60 second video and add it to your gallery. The price for a video is €50.
8. PAYMENT
Payment is due after the shoot. Bank transfers are allowed from EU banks. You can also pay on the day of the shoot in cash or card.
9. AFTER THE SHOOT
I will send you a couple of sneak peeks that same night. The final gallery will be delivered 7 days after the shoot (or 7 days after picking favorites) and will be available for downloads for 1 month after image delivery. I’ll keep your edited images for up to 6 months after the shoot and you can request a reupload of them for a fee.
