FAQs

DO YOU REQUIRE A DEPOSIT?

Yes. For Weddings a 25% deposit and a signed contract will secure your date. For Commercial, Lifestyle & Fashion, Fitness & Beauty shoots a 50% deposit and a signed contract will secure your date. All deposits are non-refundable, but where possible I am happy to reschedule.

WHEN IS FULL PAYMENT REQUIRED?

Full payment is required one week prior to your photo date.

WHAT IS THE BEST TIME TO SCHEDULE A PHOTO DATE?

Most people think a clear sunny day is the perfect light for photos. Generally isn’t.

Think… Search light (aka mid-day sun) VS Candle light (aka sunrise/sunset) Harsh light causes harsh shadows and generally is very unflattering.

Early morning or late afternoon light tends to be a softer light and casts an even light across your beautiful face. The light at this time is your friend.  If possible try to avoid harsh mid-day sun… it is not your friend.

WHO OWNS THE (C) COPYRIGHT OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS?

Copyright in the photographs remains with the photographer aka me. You can use the photos on social media and you can print as many as you need for your personal, non-commercial use. All the legalities are covered in my booking form.

Use of images for commercial purposes will incur licensing fees. If you receive an inquiry to use the images for commercial purposes, i.e. a venue wants to use one of your wedding photos for their advertising, or blog etc, please refer the inquiry to me so I can assist them.
