FAQ
What type of photography do you do?
I specialize in natural-light, lifestyle family, maternity, newborn and kids photography.
How far in advance do we need to book a session?
I recommend planning your session at least 2 month in advance and reaching out for availability. This way you can ensure that you can get the date of your choice and you have enough time to plan your ideal location and outfit.
What is your turnaround time?
My turnaround is 7 days for family, portrait, maternity, newborn, child and event photography. Within 7 days after your session, you will receive you full pre-edited gallery of approximately 50 images and from those you will be able to select your favourite images.
How many images will I receive?
It depends on the type of session that you have booked:
- "Mini sessions" - you will receive 7 images.
- "Full 1 hour Session" - you will receive 20 images
- "Full Session +" - the entire gallery.
Check my Booking Page for more details on the packages and details.
Do you offer digital files?
Absolutely! You will receive a beautiful online gallery of all of your favorite images that you selected. They will be water mark free and high resolution that you will be able to save on all of your devices and print them in future.
What should I wear for my photo session?
I always recommend choosing a color theme to work through your outfits, as well as lots of layers and textures. I go into a lot more details in my what to wear guide in my welcome package. In general, opt in for lighter pastel colours, and opt out of dark tones, prints and matching outfits.
What if my kids are cranky?
No worries! I am a momma of 3 and worked with kids of all ages for over 15 years. I expect them to operate with their own ideas. I will use different strategies and techniques to get your kids engaged, giggly, playful and happy.
What do I do with my hands while posting?
Not everyone is used to being in front of the camera and knows how to pose and what to do… That’s why I give my families 100% guidance the whole time and guide you through both static poses as well as candid shots. You will get natural, playful, effortless images, while without the feeling of being photographed.
What if it rains?
Natural light is the most flattering for portrait sessions, so if the weather will call for rain, we will reschedule for another date or we can relocate to your home.
What locations do you recommend for photo sessions?
Your photo session can be done out of the comfort of your own home, a studio, or outdoor location.
A Home Session is perfect for a cozy family session, especially if you have newborn or your child.
For Studio sessions, I shoot mostly at Mint Room Studios which offers bright and modern looks with beautiful natural light.
For outdoor sessions, there are many different options including but not limited to: Humber Arboretum, James Gardens, Toronto Lakefront, Wilcox Lake, Richmond Green Park, Downtown Toronto and more. We will discuss photo session specifications, goal and location during our initial phone conversation.
