Question 2

Can I have my spouse, friend or family included in my photo session?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We understand that even though this is a celebration of you, your loved ones are a part of your story. You'd have your hair and makeup done anyway so it's a perfect opportunity to get those photos you've been wanting for a while now - couple, family, boudoir, glamour, headshots,... it's perfectly fine. All we ask is that you inform us ahead of the shoot during the consult so we can make adequate preparations.

Question 3

I am not photogenic & don't like the way I look in pictures. Will I love my photos?

Accepted Answer

I don't believe there is anyone who is not photogenic. We have had lots of clients in the past with this fear and their minds were completely changed when they saw the results.

It's your photographer's job to make you look good in pictures using a combination of professional skills - outfit styling, flattering angles, the right camera lens, colours, etc.

Remember, we have a styling consultation ahead of your shoot and our makeup artist would have glammed you up as much or as little as you want to enhance your best features - you'd be super confident and feel on top of the world even before I take the first shot.

You are beautiful and I promise to photograph you in the most flattering way while capturing your authenticity. I guide you every step of the way so you have absolutely nothing to worry about. That's what you are paying me for.

Question 4

How much can I expect to spend?

Accepted Answer

Get ready to fall in love with many of your images - in love with YOU like never before.

Some clients spend $2,000 and others spend $7,000 or more.

What you purchase is entirely up to you - my job is to take the most beautiful images of yourself you have ever seen so you want them all.

Here's what I tell my clients "Only buy what you love".

You get to choose how you want to enjoy the images from our world-class selection of products, including exquisite albums, stunning wall art, and elegant folio boxes.

Question 6

Can I get professional makeup done?

Accepted Answer

Professional makeup is a complimentary service we offer and always included in the sessions.

You deserve to be pampered and our team of makeup artists are itching to glam you up like they've done for many others!

Question 7

I don't have what to wear.

Accepted Answer

This is a very common question we get! Firstly, don't stress about wardrobe. We understand that selecting the perfect outfits for your  session can be challenging. That's why we offer a pre-session wardrobe styling consult where we  discuss clothing options and provide recommendations based on your personal style.

In addition, you are welcome to go through our studio closet to pick dresses and pieces of outfits to complement your own wardrobe. We love creating pieces with you.

Question 8

Do you have sessions on Saturdays? I work during the week.

Accepted Answer

I'm a mum to three young boys and love to be there for my family over the weekends so I work mostly on weekdays. I however offer only 2 Saturday slots every month for client sessions. So if you absolutely want a Saturday session, book quick.

And you're worth it if you have to take one day off work for yourself. You already do for your kids or Dr's appointments when needed.

Question 9

Can I change into multiple outfits during the session?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We encourage you to bring different outfits to the session. Changing outfits allows for a variety of looks, showing the different amazing sides to you -  goofy, feminine, career professional/business owner, sister, lover, etc. You already took the time off work, hair and makeup professionally done so why not make the most of it! You can have up to 6 different outfits/looks.

Question 10

Can I do my own makeup before coming?

Accepted Answer

If you are very proficient with makeup application, then yes, you are welcome to come to your portrait session wearing your preferred makeup.

However, we highly recommend that you consider having your makeup professionally done by our expert makeup artist. We offer makeup services that are specifically designed to complement the natural beauty of our clients and to help them look and feel their best during their portrait session. This is a complimentary service at no extra charge.

Question 11

How long will the session take?

Accepted Answer

Question 13

What if I'm not satisfied with the makeup done for me?

Accepted Answer

We only work with skilled and experienced makeup artists to ensure that our clients look and feel their best in front of the camera. During your styling/design session, we discuss your preferred makeup looks. Also on the shoot day, our makeup artist will confirm your preferences before and during application.
