FAQ
What are your photography specialties?
I am very experienced with portrait photography. I have a minor in Studio Arts (Photography and Printmaking) and have run my photography business for over 10 years. I have an extensive portfolio and experience with Engagement/Couple Photography, Family Photography, Proposal/Elopement/Wedding Photography, and Senior Portraits. I love getting to know individuals and families through photoshoots, which is why I have a lot of exposure to those styles - but I do not shy away from other areas. Feel free to check out my portfolio on this website. Let's chat about your dream!
What does the investment cost?
My price brackets range for genre of photographs, location, and other custom requests. You can find information about my pricing on the pricing tab.. When you decide to hire and collaborate with me as a photographer, I make a promise to do the best of my ability to capture your dream photographs. These are photographs that will capture special memories and moments. Whether it be reaching a milestone like graduating High School or College or celebrating a marriage, I would be so grateful to be a part of your day!
What rights do I have to the digital photographs?
I grant the right to reprint or share images from the photoshoot for your personal use. I want you to be able to hang these lovely photos in your home or print them for invitations or holiday cards. That being said, you may not sell the images for profit or publish your images without With The One You Love LLC permission.
Do you provide the RAW files from my photoshoot?
There are several reasons why I do not provide RAW files from photoshoots. First, many of these of photographs are duplicates which provides no value to you. Second, I have extensive experience with editing photographs and hope that you are choosing me for my talent with capturing and editing your special photos. Unedited photos will not be similar to the edited package that I provide at the end of the experience. Lastly, I view photographs as a work of art and most of the magic happens in my editing studio once I have captured your images.
How much do you charge for a destination/out of state photoshoot?
Please contact me via email about your desired destination and I will provide a travel quote. Destination photoshoots will have an additional charge based on the time of year and number of driving/flying miles from my residence in Fort Worth, TX.
Do you do indoor Studio Photography?
Currently, I do not have an indoor studio at my business location. I love shooting at rental spaces that have natural lighting, but I do not personally do strategic lighting shots with flash equipment. I will attend at home-photoshoots for newborn or couples photography, but do not have my own indoor studio destination for photographs as I normally shoot outdoors.
What language do you speak?
I only speak English fluently.
Do you touch up all images?
Yes, all images provided will have gone through my standard quality and touch up process. "Touch Up" is a photography slang term meaning to edit and modify an image. To me, it means removing obvious blemishes or distractions within an image (if possible) and editing the exposure, contrast, and colors.
What file type do you provide?
While I shoot in RAW, I normally provide jpeg files as a finished product. This is because many clients do not need larger file sizes than what jpeg can offer. I am happy to work with you if you need a certain file size for one or two of you images and require RAW.
Do you require a deposit?
Yes. I require a deposit for all photoshoots as a part of my contracts because if I receive a cancellation, this prevents me from being able to serve another client at this same time. These deposits will vary based on type of photoshoot and will be included in the contract..
Do you charge for additional coverage?
While I do not schedule multiple full day photography sessions on the same day, I do charge for additional coverage because it impacts my schedule. Additional coverage clauses will be included in photography contracts.
Where can I view my finalized photographs?
I will provide a link to a site that will show all of the finalized photographs. Please download these photographs within the days designated on the contract because they will be removed after a certain number of days on the site.
