FAQs

  • You will receive your high resolution digital photos via a secure online gallery. The gallery will expire 6 months after the session. I highly recommend downloading and printing your gallery immediately.

  • I have a hard time putting a hard number of promised photos. It truly depends on the session. I try to under promise and over deliver. Almost always you will end up with way more than expected! On average, clients can get 45+ photos from a regular session.

  • You will receive your online gallery within 2-3 weeks of the session.

  • After you have filled out the contact page and we have discussed the details of your session, I require a $100 retainer at the time of booking. Your remaining balance is due 7 days before your session date. Your photo gallery will not be delivered until full payment is made.

    Dates are not guaranteed and bookings are on a first come first serve basis.

  • Your retainer is good for one year from the original session date for one rescheduled session at the discretion of me, the photographer.

  • At this time, I am only traveling within Southern California. A travel fee will be included for sessions 30 miles outside San Clemente.

  • Q: How much do you retouch the images?

    A: My editing style focuses on enhancing the natural beauty of the moment while staying true to how everything looked and felt. As a natural light photographer, I emphasize warm, authentic tones and balanced lighting to make your images timeless and vibrant.

    I lightly retouch for color correction, brightness, and minor distractions (like stray hairs or blemishes), but I avoid over-editing so your photos remain true to life. My goal is to deliver images that feel genuine, natural, and beautifully you!

    I do not reshape or retouch bodies or faces.

  • I always suggest choosing outfits that make you feel comfortable and confident while reflecting a natural, timeless style. Earth tones like soft browns, warm creams, muted greens, and gentle blues work beautifully, especially in natural light.

    Opt for simple patterns, solid colors, and textured fabrics like knits, linen, or cotton for added depth. Avoid anything too bright, neon, or with large logos, as they can be distracting. If you're planning for a group, aim for coordinated colors rather than matching outfits.

    Ultimately, wear what feels like you! If you’d like more advice or inspiration, feel free to ask—I’m here to help!
