Got questions? Find answers about sessions, editing, delivery, prints, and more—everything you need to know before booking your shoot.
1. How many photos will I receive?
> Each package includes a set number of fully edited, high-resolution images: Classic Cap & Gown – 15 photos, Storyteller Session – 25 photos, Legacy Edit – 35 photos.
Every image is handpicked and edited with care. I value quality over quantity—each frame should feel like a memory, not just a picture. You’ll receive your images at full resolution, so you can print them at any size you like, whether it’s a wallet keepsake or a large framed portrait down the line.
2. What kind of editing is included?
All sessions include professional editing for:
• Color grading
• Lighting and exposure adjustments
• Light skin retouching (blemishes, tone, eyes)
What’s not included by default:
• Body modification or reshaping
• Advanced Object/Person Removal
• Background swaps or composites
If you're looking for more advanced edits, feel free to ask—I’ll quote you based on the request.
3. What is an Instagram sneak peek?
Within 24–48 hours after your shoot, I’ll send you edited preview photos you can post right away on Instagram & other social media platforms. These are sized and styled for social media (Instagram Post, Story & Reel Cover), giving you a little taste of your session before the full gallery arrives.
4. What sizes and formats are included in the sneak peeks?
Sneak peeks are delivered within 24–48 hours after your shoot and are formatted specifically for social media, so you can share your favorite moments right away—no cropping or resizing needed.
Each sneak peek (1–3 photos) will be provided in the following sizes and aspect ratios:
• Instagram Square – 1080 x 1080 px (1:1)
• Instagram Portrait – 1080 x 1350 px (4:5)
• Instagram Landscape – 1080 x 566 px (1.91:1)
• Instagram Reel Cover – 1080 x 1920 px
• Instagram Story – 1080 x 1920 px
• TikTok Post – 1080 x 1920 px
• TikTok Cover Thumbnail – 1080 x 1920 px (center-cropped safe zone for display)
These are optimized to look clean and professional across platforms.
If you want the rest of your gallery resized for social media use that can be added on as a custom service—just let me know what you need, and I’ll quote you accordingly.
5. What’s included with Polaroid prints?
Some packages include live Polaroid prints—meaning I’ll bring a portable printer and give you instant, real-time prints on location.
Size: 3 Inch X 3 Inch
Style: Classic white-bordered instant prints
Feel: Soft, vintage, and tangible—something to hold while the digital gallery is processed
Additional live Polaroid prints are available for $5 each upon request.
6. Where do you shoot?
> Most sessions take place on or around the VCU campus, where the textures of brick, sunlight, and city life come together beautifully.
Popular spots include:
• The compass
• Cabell Library steps
• Monroe Park
• Rooftop decks
•Quiet streets in the Fan District
If you have a special location in mind—personal or meaningful—just let me know. I’m always down to explore.
7. Do you provide RAW or unedited images?
> Nope. I deliver only the final, edited versions—each image is part of a larger visual story, and editing is where the mood is shaped. If you’d like additional edits beyond your package, we can discuss a per-image add-on.
8. Can I bring a friend, partner, or family member?
Absolutely. If it’s your moment, they’re part of it. You're welcome to include 1–4 people for a few shots at no extra charge. For group sessions or shared bookings, I’m happy to create a custom quote.
9. What if it rains or I need to reschedule?
> No worries. Weather reschedules are always free. If something personal comes up, I just ask for at least 24 hours’ notice.
10. What should I wear?
> Wear what feels most like you! Bring your cap & gown, of course—but add an outfit that reflects your personality, culture, or confidence. Formalwear, sneakers, saris, denim—anything that tells your story.
