FAQ
Before the session.
How do I book a session?
Simply fill out the inquiry form with a few details about the type of session you're looking for. I'll get back to you as soon as possible so we can discuss your ideas, answer any questions, and find the best date for your session.
Do you help with posing?
Yes. My goal is to make you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera.
Before every session, I'll ask you to create or share an inspiration board or shot list with the poses, ideas, and photos you'd love to recreate. This helps me understand your vision before we even start shooting.
During the session, I'll guide you through natural movements, positioning, and expressions while also adding my own creative direction to create authentic and cinematic images.
Working together before the session helps us achieve photos you'll genuinely love.
How long does it take to receive my photos?
Most galleries are delivered within 1–2 weeks depending on the size of the session. Larger events and weddings may require additional editing time.
Do you travel?
Absolutely. I'm available throughout Pennsylvania and beyond.
Travel outside my local service area may include a travel fee depending on the distance. Any travel costs will always be discussed before booking so there are no surprises.
What happens if the weather is bad?
If weather conditions aren't ideal for an outdoor session, we'll simply reschedule for another available date at no additional charge.
Your experience and the quality of your photos always come first.
Do you offer video services as well?
Yes. Alongside photography, I also create cinematic highlight videos and branded content for businesses, athletes, creators, and special events.
If you're interested in both photography and video, let me know and I'll create a custom quote that fits your project.
