FAQ
What's the best time?
The best lighting for the shoot is in the afternoon, so feel free to choose any time slot—the light will be great. And the closer to sunset, the better!
Can you provide outfits?
I often get requests to provide clothing for photoshoots, especially maternity sessions, but this isn’t a service I offer. Stocking 20-30 dresses in various sizes (XXS to XXXL), colors, and styles would require significant storage and professional cleaning after each shoot. Without a chance to try outfits beforehand, it’s also hard to ensure they’ll fit or be liked. Instead, I provide personalized recommendations with examples, mood boards, and links, helping clients choose from their wardrobe or purchase and return items easily. This approach ensures a better experience for everyone—thank you for understanding!
Can I reschedule the photoshoot?
Yes, of course! If something comes up or the weather isn’t suitable for our session, we can move it to other available date free of charge.
Is 25 minutes enough for a photoshoot?
Absolutely! I love this format, and my clients who have done mini sessions swear by it too. I carefully plan everything in advance, including what and how we’ll shoot, and I prepare a mood board with poses for you. Your husband and kids won’t even have time to get tired! Minimum effort—maximum results.
I want a session, but the location or date doesn’t work for me
Every month, I offer these sessions in 1-2 new locations and announce them at the beginning of the month. If you’re looking for a fully customized experience, I’d love to offer my one-hour private session, where you choose the time and place!
Will it work for me?
This type of session is perfect for everyone! You can use it for fresh portraits, a couple’s shoot, family photos, or maternity pictures. I’ll create a customized mood board and provide outfit recommendations to make sure everything looks just right.
