Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before stepping in front of the lens.

How do I book a session?
Start by filling out the inquiry form on my website. Once I receive your details, I’ll follow up to confirm availability, go over your session goals, and get your date locked in.

Yes. A non-refundable retainer is due to reserve your session. The remaining balance is due on or before your session date — payment plans are available if needed.
