From start to finish
Step-by-step walk-through
BEFORE YOUR SESSION
Coffee & no-obligation consultation
The first move is for us to get together for an informal chat to discuss ideas for your shoot. This breaks the ice and helps all of us decide whether or not we are the right fit for each other.
Planning your session
Your shoot is an individual creative project and I will give it time & focused thought. Together we’ll decide upon location, style and any extra team we may need (make-up artist/hair stylist/personal chef etc). The best spontaneous shots happen when the essentials have been taken care of.
DURING YOUR SESSION
The day of your shoot
Sessions typically last somewhere from two to three hours. It will be relaxed, fun and non-traditional… if you hear me ask you to “say cheese” – slap me!
My style is natural and candid with an emphasis on bringing out authentic personality and character.
AFTER YOUR SESSION
View your photos online
Within seven days after your session, you’ll be emailed a website link to view your images in an online gallery. A pricing list and order form will also be included.
I break with tradition here in that I don’t insist that you come to me to view all your shots. I strongly dislike like the pressured ‘sales’ vibe this gives. There’ll be none of that from me.
That said, if you’d like me to talk through your shots with you – I’d be delighted to!
Order prints and/or digital files
We now live in a digital world and although a photograph really comes to life when it is printed, there is also huge benefit in having access to the digital files – to share your images with friends and family online, or be used as part of marketing & PR in the case of a recording artist or writer, for example.
So, again breaking with tradition, I’m not going to insist that you order prints!
Digital enhancement
The photos you choose will be digitally retouched and enhanced in post production before being delivered to you in your preferred format(s). This is the icing on the cake part & really brings the shots to life
Every shoot starts with a coffee & chat somewhere nice!
