FAQ

Common concerns about getting in front of the camera
(hint: "not photogenic" is totally normal. And totally not true).

What if I'm not photogenic? Expand

This is one of the biggest concerns of new clients.  I want to assure you it’s not your job to be photogenic, it’s my job to guide you through a fun experience and help you every step of the way.  I know lighting, I know posing, and I know people. I want you to love your images and will do everything I can to make sure that you do.

I'd like to lose a few pounds first... Expand

Posing and direction along with the right outfits can shed pounds and have you looking your very best, right now.

You don't need to change a thing. 

What if I feel awkward and nervous? Expand

Most people feel nervous in front of the camera. It's completely normal.

I've had my own professional portraits done, so I know how you feel.

I’m confident, though, that I can guide you through a really fun, uplifting experience and get the best shots possible.

I'm too old for a photoshoot Expand

Beauty shines from the soul and it’s my job to reveal it.

You're always the perfect age to celebrate who you are and the person you’ve become.

How much do portraits cost? Expand

My individual portrait sessions start at $690. 

These sessions include a design and style consultation, hair and makeup, a photoshoot at my studio or on location, and an in-person reveal of your final images. 

It also includes an image credit of $500 to spend toward your images!

I’d love to hear about your needs and help you design a session tailored just for you.

Frequently asked questions about personal branding, portrait, and headshot photography sessions.

Where are you located? Expand

I have a quaint home studio in the historic part of Newmarket Ontario, just outside of Toronto in Canada. I am also able to travel for shoots.

You can view a map over on my contact page.

Do you ever shoot outside of the studio? Expand

Yes!

I love to shoot on-location, either in Newmarket or across the world. Often my sessions consist of some studio shots and some shots at another location. It's entirely up to you. We'll decide what's best during our pre-shoot consulting session. 

To get started, please contact me.

What is a personal branding photoshoot? Expand

Personal branding is all about telling your story and designing a whole photo shoot experience around you. Think of it as head shots taken to a whole new level!

This kind of shoot is ideal for entrepreneurs, artists, athletes, Experts , and everyday heroes who need to show up and stand out with visual authority as the face of their brand

Like portraits, personal branding sessions start at $675. I offer both print and digital packages for an additional fee.

Each shoot includes a pre-shoot design and planning session, complimentary hair and makeup, our session together at the studio or a location, and an in-person reveal of your final images.

Please contact me to inquire about availability.

Do you do headshots? Expand

Yes, headshots packages start at $350 and include the shoot and your first full resolution digital file. Group pricing is also available.

Please contact me for availability.

How long after the shoot will I wait to see my images? Expand

I do everything I can to have your images ready for the reveal within two weeks of our session.  After the reveal, it usually takes two weeks to get the photographs you've ordered back to the studio. 

Do you offer digital files? Expand

Yes, for each print file you purchase, you get is matcing digital file..

I also offer digital-only collections for my headshot and personal branding packages.

If you'd like to learn more, please contact me.

Do you take credit cards? Expand

I accept all major credit cards.

I know that professional portraits are an investment. To help make beautiful photography more accessible, I can also offer payment plans to accommodate your budget.

Please contact me directly and we can find a package or plan that's best for you.
