I'm glad you're here! Below are answers to some of the most common questions clients ask before booking a photography session. If you don't find the information you're looking for, feel free to reach out anytime. I typically respond within 24 hours.
What photography services do you offer?
Weddings, family sessions (all sizes, from 3 people to family reunions), surprise engagement, couples collections, high school senior, birthday & anniversary parties, pre & post-wedding celebrations, career development, product-brand-marketing, corporate, real estate - interior & exterior, and headshots. If you are looking for a particular project, please reach out.
What's it like working with you?
Working with me is easy, relaxed, and genuinely fun. From the moment we connect, I focus on making you feel comfortable and confident — no awkward poses, no pressure. We’ll keep things natural, whether we’re walking a beach in Chatham or chasing golden light around Cape Cod, letting real moments unfold. I’ll guide you when needed, step back when it matters, and make sure your experience feels just as good as the photos look.
How do I book a session?
Easy! Just reach out through the contact form on the website or send a message with the type of session you're interested in, your preferred date, and location. I’ll confirm availability and send the next steps to reserve your spot.
Do you require a deposit?
No. After years of working as a photographer, I've decided that paying in full at the end of the session is the best way to go.
When will I receive my photos?
Delivery times depend on the type of session:
Portrait sessions: typically 1–2 weeks
Events or weddings: 3–6 weeks
I always aim to deliver as soon as possible while maintaining quality.
Do you help with posing?
Absolutely! Most people aren’t professional models, so I guide you through natural poses and moments to make the photos look relaxed and authentic.
What should we wear for the session?
Choose outfits that:
- Are comfortable
- Coordinate (but don’t match exactly)
- Avoid large logos or busy patterns
- Neutral colors and soft tones usually photograph beautifully.
What happens if the weather is bad?
For outdoor sessions, we can reschedule at no extra cost if the weather doesn’t cooperate.
Where do sessions take place?
Sessions can take place:
- Outdoors
- At your home
- At a chosen venue
- At your workplace or business location
- I’m happy to suggest locations if you need ideas.
Can we choose the photos we receive?
You will receive a private online gallery with final photos, where you and your guests can view, share, and download all and any photos. The online gallery will also have a shop where anyone can purchase prints and selected high-end products.
Do you retouch the photos?
All delivered images receive professional editing, including color correction, exposure adjustments, and light retouching when appropriate.
Can you remove blemishes or small distractions?
Yes! Temporary things like pimples, scratches, or small distractions can be removed during editing.
Do you travel for sessions or weddings?
Most of my sessions happen on Cape Cod, so yes, I can go anywhere on the island, but I love photographing in new locations. Please reach out if you have a specific location. Travel fees may apply for locations outside of Cape Cod.
Can I print the photos anywhere?
Yes. Your gallery will include high-resolution images ready for downloading & printing. I highly recommend using the gallery shop, since it's user-friendly and you have the best vendors of the photography industry available there, but you’re free to print them wherever you like.
What if we’ve never done a photo session before?
That’s completely normal! Most of my clients say this before their session. My job is to make it fun, relaxed, and natural.
What time of day is best for photos?
For outdoor sessions, golden hour (shortly after sunrise or before sunset) offers the most flattering natural light.
Can pets join the session?
Of course! Pets are part of the family and always welcome in portrait sessions. I love pets and they are fun! I only ask that you make sure wherever we go for the session, please check if pets are permitted. Usually, Cape Cod beaches don't allow pets between Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends.
How will I receive my photos?
You’ll receive a private online gallery where you can view, download, share, and order prints.
What if I need to reschedule?
Life happens! If you need to reschedule, just let me know as soon as possible, and we’ll find a new date at no extra cost.
