MY PRIMARY SHOOTING LOCATION IS NEW YORK’S CAPITAL REGION (ALBANY, SARATOGA, LAKE GEORGE). HOWEVER, I AM ABLE AND WILLING TO TRAVEL! LOCATION WILL PRIMARILY BE THE CHOICE OF THE CLIENT, THOUGH I AM HAPPY TO MAKE SUGGESTIONS FOR THE MOST VERSATILE AND APPROPRIATE SPOTS TO YIELD THE BEST RESULTS, DEPENDING ON WHAT THE CLIENT IS GOING FOR. TRAVEL FEES MAY APPLY AND WILL BE SPECIFIED PRIOR TO BOOKING.

TURNAROUND TIME VARIES DEPENDING ON YOUR PACKAGE. GENERALLY, TURNAROUND TIME IS 2 WEEKS FOR SESSIONS LESS THAN AN HOUR, 2-3 WEEKS FOR SESSIONS UP TO 2 HOURS, AND 3+ WEEKS FOR LONGER SESSIONS OR EVENTS.

You will be invoiced and may submit payment online using any major credit card. Cash and checks are generally not accepted.

THE NUMBER OF IMAGES YOU RECEIVE DEPENDS ON THE PACKAGE YOU CHOOSE; A MINIMUM AMOUNT OF PHOTOS WILL BE SPECIFIED ON YOUR CONTRACT.

I’ll give you as much info as I can about our session before it happens, but in general, neutrals and earth tones are a safe bet!

Please visit our Booking page to request a booking. To lock in the date and time for your session, a 50% non-refundable deposit is required. Your session is not booked until the deposit is paid and contract is signed. The remaining 50% and any applicable travel fees will be due 48 hours before the session/event.

OF COURSE! WHILE MY FAVORITE IMAGES TEND TO BE THE UNPOSED ONES, I REALIZE IT MAY TAKE TIME (EVEN YEARS!) FOR SOME PEOPLE TO BE COMFORTABLE IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA. I WILL ALWAYS PROVIDE DIRECTION TO HELP ACHIEVE THOSE NATURAL AND AUTHENTIC MOMENTS.

UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, PHOTOS WILL BE DELIVERED VIA ONLINE GALLERY. WHEN THEY ARE READY, YOU WILL BE EMAILED A LINK AND A CODE TO VIEW YOUR ONLINE GALLERY AND DOWNLOAD YOUR IMAGES.

No way, Jose! I never deliver images which I feel are incomplete or which are not the best reflection of my style or skill.

Awesome! I love a cloudy, moody day (plus, clouds can be way better than direct sun for photos, as they help to distribute light more evenly and you’re less likely to be squinting in all your photos!). If it’s full-on storming or conditions are dangerous, I am happy to reschedule.

SESSION TIMES ARE SPECIFIED FOR EACH AVAILABLE PACKAGE. PLEASE PLAN FOR YOUR BOOKED HOURS TO ALSO INCLUDE AT LEAST 15 MINUTES FOR SET-UP AND ANY NECESSARY CONSULTATION ON THE DAY OF THE EVENT. If your package includes more than one location, the travel time is considered part of your session (for example, if you book a 2-hour session which includes a second location 30mins away, you will have 1.5hrs of shooting time.

IF YOU CANNOT MAKE YOUR SCHEDULED SESSION, 48 HOURS NOTICE IS REQUIRED TO APPLY YOUR NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT TOWARD A RESCHEDULED DATE/TIME. WITHIN 48 HOURS OF YOUR ORIGINAL SCHEDULED SESSION, YOUR DEPOSIT MAY BE APPLIED TOWARD A RESCHEDULE AT THE DISCRETION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHER IN EXTREME CIRCUMSTANCES SUCH AS BAD WEATHER OR ILLNESS. DEPOSITS WILL NOT BE REFUNDED OR APPLIED TOWARD A RESCHEDULED DATE/TIME FOR NO-CALL/NO-SHOWS.

THE PACKAGE COST INCLUDES DIGITAL IMAGES ONLY, UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED (I.E. SOME WEDDING OPTIONS). AS YOU WILL BE RECEIVING HIGH-RESOLUTION IMAGES, YOU CAN ALWAYS BRING/UPLOAD THEM TO A PRINTING SERVICE OF YOUR CHOICE.

I do not do heavy retouching (beyond temporary imperfections such as blemishes, bruises, stains, lint, etc.), as this kind of work can add dozens of hours to editing time and I do not claim to be a professional Photoshop retoucher. If there is something you are self-conscious about, please let me know before the session so I can take extra care in posing.

I would love to travel with you! We’ll work out all the details together and I will include any travel fees in the overall package price so you are aware of all costs up front.
