Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to receive my photos and how do I develop them. Do you keep them after and for how long?

I guarantee that your photos will be delivered within 10-14 business days and you will receive them through an online gallery. Weddings during the busy season take up to 45 days but sneak peaks will be sent immediately after the event. The photos you receive will not have a watermark or copyrights- they are all yours!! Your photos will be kept for up 12 months but I may use them for advertising purposes down the road. If this is something that you do not feel comfortable with, let me know. 

Do you suggest the location and clothing?

We are so fortunate to live in such a beautiful city like London. There are hidden locations everywhere, I definitely will have suggestions but also open to hearing yours. As a documentary photographer I strongly believe in making each session uniquely you. If you have a hobby or special spot, lets go there. Yesss, let's talk about your clothing. Matching is key. Doesn't have to be too similar but staying in the same colour tones is very important. We can talk about that upon booking.

What is your schedule and when are you available?

I work during the day, evenings as well as Saturdays. Babies, toddlers and children are sometimes more cooperative in the morning but you know your family the best. Let's book when it is best for you.

How much time does a session take?

As a full-time photographer who has worked with children for over ten years. Previously before this career, I worked as a child and youth counsellor in a group home setting. I have photographed hundreds of mini sessions and let me tell you this. Time is of the essence. We want to have everything ready before the session takes place.

1) Send me ideas prior to the event 

2) Arrive to the session dressed and ready with makeup etc...

3 Arrive ten minutes early to pep talk your child etc... get her ready/ use bribery if need be

Babies and young children generally last up to 45- 60 minutes before having a meltdown. This is a golden fact. This is why mini sessions are so appealing. Mini sessions run for 20-30 minutes with a no nonsense approach. 

If you are looking for a more lifestyle session running around in a forest, this can last up until 1.5 hours. See my Lifestyle gallery for a better description. 

Engagement sessions run for 1-2 hours at one or two locations with different wardrobe changes.
