A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING
Before we begin.
I’m not used to being photographed. Is that okay?
Definitely. You don’t need to be a model. Sessions are relaxed and collaborative, with guidance to help you feel comfortable.
Do I need a fully formed idea?
Not at all. A reference, a loose concept, or a general feeling is enough. We can work out the direction together.
Do you shoot film or digital?
Sessions are primarily shot on film. Digital alongside film can be discussed depending on the project.
How long does film processing take?
Film takes a little patience. Allow at least two weeks after your session for development and processing. It can take longer depending on the lab. Editing and final gallery delivery come afterward, so this is not a guaranteed delivery date for your finished gallery.
How does pricing work?
The starting points above cover the session itself. Film and development are priced separately, and the number of rolls is determined during the consultation. After we talk through the full scope, you’ll receive a complete estimate.
Can you travel for a session?
Yes, depending on the project. We’ll discuss travel, locations, and any additional logistics during the consultation.
