FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  Prices may vary depending on factors such as the type of shoot, the location, the duration of the session, the number of participants, and any special requests or additional services.

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  I start by discussing your vision and goals, then plan the shoot in detail. On the day, I work patiently and make sure you feel comfortable, capturing authentic moments. Afterward, I carefully edit and deliver the images in a timely manner. I’m always happy to explain anything thoroughly — so don’t hesitate to ask for clarification at any step.

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  I have earned multiple certifications that directly relate to my work in visual and digital media. In 2024, I became an Adobe Certified Professional in Video Design through Certiport, which taught me industry-standard video creation techniques and workflow. That same year, I also completed Visual Design Using Adobe Photoshop, gaining skills in graphic design, image editing, and visual composition. Earlier, in 2023, I earned the Digital Video Using Adobe Premiere Pro certification from Certiport, where I learned video editing, sequencing, and post-production techniques. These certifications allowed me to gain hands-on experience and formal training in tools I use daily in my creative work. In essence, photography can be seen as a single, carefully composed frame of a video, capturing a moment with precision and intention.
