Frequently
Asked Questions
•
Do you shoot digital or film?
I shoot digitally these days. There are a number of advantages
to digital photography: every shot is like a Polaroid, we can
see how we’re doing as we go along. Because there is no
limit to how many photos we shoot (there is no film), and because
we can edit, we’re free to play around and try things
out -- which is often when we get the best shots.
•
Can
I get both color and black and white shots?
Because we shoot digital the
original shots are in color, but can be turned into black and
white on the computer.
•
Do you shoot in the studio or with natural light?
Both. It depends on the story we want to tell through your pictures.
•
How
long does a typical session take?
Because
we shoot digital, your session is not predicated on the number
of rolls we shoot (there are no rolls anymore), but on time.
We offer different sessions, anywhere between 1.5 hours and
a full day. You decide which session you want to book, based
on what you want to do.
•
How
many looks can I do during my session?
As
many as you like. When you book a session, it's your time. Depending
on the kind of session you book, we can give you some guidelines
(as we, of course, would prefer to spend the time shooting,
as opposed to you changing outfits), but eventually it's your
call, however many you are comfortable with.
•
What are your rates?
Our rates depend on the type of the shoot, length of shoot and
usage of the images. Contact us for an accurate price quote.
However, the part that is the same for all shoots: 10% of the
shooting fee goes to a charity of the client's choice. For more
information click here.
•
What is included in the price?
A CD/DVD with your shots (i.e. your digital "negatives"),
online proofsheets, any consultation, basic digital retouching
on either one, two or three shots - depending on the session
booked.
•
Do you provide hair & make-up?
Hair and make-up are at your discretion. We have a list of make-up
artists who we frequently work with and like, but if you want
to do your own, or you know someone who can do it for you, by
all means, bring them in and have them do it.
•
Can I meet with you for a consultation?
Absolutely. Just call us and we'll set up an appointment.
•
What is your availability?
I'm available right now if you've got enough money....;) Seriously,
please call us about that, it changes week to week, day to day,
hour to hour.
•
Do you accept credit cards?
Yes, we accept credit cards through Paypal, but you can also
pay by check or in cash if you wish.
