Frequently Asked Questions

Yes,  client can choose any safe location for the photo session. It can be in Doniphan, Sikeston, Dexter or Cape Girardeau, or Corning, Jonesboro… You name it. Client is responsible for all the location fee and a travel fee at .58/mile will be charged for locations over 25 miles away from Poplar Bluff, Missouri, within same day driving distance. For in-home studio photo session, an equipment set up fee of $50 may be charged.

Normally hair&makeup is 45minute to 1 hour. A “one location one outfit” photoshoot would last 30-45 minutes. Sessions with multiple outfit changes, such as Boudoir Session, or multiple locations(e.g., indoor and outdoor) , may take 2-3 hours. I do not rush to allow enough time to capture the best shots we could.

Yes, I do. PhotoShop is a Must-Have for all my creative portraits. For general portraits, I remove blemishes, whiten teeth, lighten wrinkles when needed. I also ofter high-end retouch upon request.

I respect my clients’ privacy. I would not post your photos online without your written consent. Most of my clients are happy to allow me to share their beautiful images though!

Yes. I accept PayPal credits and offer up to 12 months no interest payment plans, to make the photography services relatively affordable for all budgets; because everyone deserve to have high quality professional photos!

RAW files require special software to open and view or print; Unedited images are unfinished products. The final images I deliver to my clients are a direct reflection of my complete work and skill, therefore, unless otherwise stated in contract (e.g. for commercial project that with in-house editor) I do not release images other than the final fully edited versions. 

If you don’t like your photos, for whatever reason, you are not obligated to invest any further. However, I highly recommend clients to take a look at my portfolio, know my style, before booking, and schedule a free pre-session consultation, to make sure we are a good fit.

Clients who purchase high resolution digital images can have them printed anywhere. However, as my signature editing is specifically calibrated to our professional lab’s printers, in order to ensure quality, I highly recommend clients order prints through us. 

Except the Same Day delivered Headshot Express, Fully edited images will be ready for you to review and order in one week after your photo session.  Once order is placed and sent in for print, as most of the print products are handcrafted by one of the best professional labs in the world, which is based in Europe, please allow four-six weeks for the labs to print and deliver your order. Highly recommend to book your session and order print early to ensure you have your photos in time.
