Do you have questions? I have answers!
How many people a day do you photograph?
Usually one. Rarely two. But don’t worry, you’ll never feel rushed or run into another client.
Do you use natural light or studio lighting?
I use studio lighting for both environmental and in-studio setups for actors.
Are your sessions indoors or outdoors?
Both. Mostly indoors and sometimes outdoors (weather permitting). It’s up to your preference of course!
Do you provide professional makeup & hair and do I have to use your team?
Yes, I provide a professional makeup artist and I require you use my peeps. What’s that you ask? Why do I require you to use my makeup artists? To ensure that I’m working with my efficient team, trained based on my needs so that I’m able to deliver results consistent with what you see in my portfolio and give you the best experience possible. My makeup artists stay with you during your entire session.
Arrive with your hair already styled and the MUA will provide light hair. Full hair styling is also available for an additional fee.
Is makeup required?
I require a makeup artist for women.
Can your makeup artist do well on black skin?
Hell yes! I’m super hands-on with hand-picking my MUAs. I’m also a picky person myself so I understand how to cater to people who have specific and real concerns from past bad experiences. I meet with makeup artists first and inspect their products to make sure they are pros and not “fake-up artists”. Then I provide them with a list of preferences and formulas specifically geared towards our style.
Can I trust your makeup artist not to do too much?
Yes again! Too much makeup is a very common problem and one of the top reasons I see agents ask for re-shoots. For this reason, I’m super hands-on and involved in the process. After we apply the “industry standard” which is very light and natural, we always ask if we did anything you wouldn’t do or vice versa. It’s a collaborative environment and not one where we claim to know best. Your preferences need to be taken into consideration right?
What is your turnaround time?
Your retouched files are delivered in 5-7 business days.
What kind of clothing should I bring to my headshot session?
A wardrobe guideline is emailed to you once you book a session with me.
