FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is straightforward and reflects the quality, experience, and personalized attention I offer each client. Standard sessions start at $300, with tailored packages available for proposals, weddings, branding, and family shoots. A 50% retainer is required to secure your date, and the remaining balance is due on the day of the shoot. Travel outside Charleston may include an additional fee. I occasionally offer seasonal promotions or complimentary engagement sessions for wedding bookings.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I begin by learning about the client's vision, preferences, and occasion — whether it's a proposal, wedding, branding, or family session. We discuss location, outfits, timeline, and mood, often with reference photos. I guide clients through preparation and aim to create a relaxed and confident atmosphere during the shoot. Afterward, I deliver an online gallery within 7–10 days, with options for retouching, prints, and albums.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I’ve completed advanced photography workshops in New York and Los Angeles with top industry professionals, focusing on editorial lighting, posing, and storytelling. I also continually invest in education related to editing, color grading, and client experience. My background in visual arts and years of hands-on shooting have shaped my clean, emotional, and timeless style.
