FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing varies from shoot to shoot, but for a standard headshot session, my package includes an hour shoot, as many looks as you'd like, online proofing, and four edited photos. Event pricing varies. I do my best to try to meet every client's needs while still being respectful of their budget - contact me for a specific quote!
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I first consult my customer to determine the purpose of the shots and to get a clear understanding of what they're going for. For actors, I will ask about their brand/type and what kind of look(s) they're going for in their shoot. For professionals, I'll usually ask them similar questions in order to figure out what they're going for. I talk to my clients in depth about previous headshot experiences they've had and what they liked or disliked about the experience and the final result, and cater my services accordingly. I believe that every photo shoot is a collaboration, and maximum communication helps everyone to achieve their goals.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a background in theatre, experience working for a professional networking organization, and as an events planner. I understand what directors are looking for in headshots, which makes me knowledgeable behind the camera and able to communicate with actors to create on-brand looks and shots that will book them gigs. For working professionals, I have extensive knowledge and understanding of branding, and am able to work with them to create photos for LinkedIn or websites that adequately communicates the image they want to portray. Lastly, as an events coordinator, I understand what kind of photos clients want to take away from an event - ones that encapsulate the energy and atmosphere of the party!
