Graduation Photo Session FAQs
-
Yes! Feel free to invite your friends and family to our shoot.
-
Each person will have the option to get solo, buddy, and group shots.
-
No problem! I prepare multiple prompts and poses to help you feel at ease and guide you throughout your session.
-
Props are totally optional! They can be fun to add, but aren’t necessary.
Feel free to bring any graduation regalia you have, as well as some fun items like confetti cannons, champagne bottles, balloons, or any objects that hold sentimental value to you from your time during college (i.e. basketball, guitar, boba, etc).
-
I’m currently based in Orange County, but I’m open to driving anywhere in Southern California or flying up to the SF Bay Area!
-
Yes, but only within reason.
Since certain locations don’t have optimal lighting or can be further away, I may recommend we avoid certain locations and stick to ones that will give you the best photo quality.
On average, solo sessions will include 3-5 spots on one campus.
-
Due to my limited availability, I will not be open to revising final photos once delivered. However, in our consultation call, I will ask if you have specific preferences for editing styles (i.e. warmer, cooler or more natural tones) to meet your specific needs in the editing process.
I also do not edit body shapes and faces using photoshop, but you’re welcome to edit the raw images yourself for $20 if you’d like to purchase them!
-
If it rains, then I will happily reschedule your session for free!
(At the same time though, rainy days can be fun opportunities to get creative and moody shots!)
-
My solo packages typically range between $200-350. Group packages vary depending on your group size & session duration.
After you share what you’re looking for with me through the “Book My Session” button that links to a form, this will help me to understand your specific needs and give you an exact quote. -
You will be guaranteed at least:
20 photos for a 30 minute shoot
50 photos for 1 hour
80 photos for 1.5 hours!
Although many photographers choose to share only a specific number of photos per hour, I do my best to share as many high-quality edits as possible from your session!
-
Delivery times will vary depending on my availability, but I guarantee a 14-day delivery starting from the day of our session for edited photos.
If you want an expedited delivery service, you can message me directly since there will be an additional fee that depends on the delivery timeline.
-
If you let me know at least 28 days before your session, then you can reschedule for free! If you let me know at least 14 days before, I will ask for $20 to reschedule (since I already blocked out time for you and may have had to cancel other plans for our shoot).
Any requests with shorter notice would cost $40 to reschedule (unless it’s a medical emergency). However, if you can find another client to take over your slot, then you can avoid the rescheduling fee.
-
Definitely! However, it’s good to keep in mind that outfit changes will take time away from shooting more photos or visiting more spots, so I’d recommend booking a 1.5-2 hour session if you plan to do any outfit changes.
-
Since raw images do not reflect the quality of my finished work, I typically don’t deliver them to clients. However, if you’d like to purchase them for $20, then I’d be happy to share them with you within one week after your edited photos are delivered.
After one week, I will delete the raw images since they take up lots of storage.
-
Yes! I would be happy to provide the best experience possible for you and your dogs, cats, turtles, etc.
-
ASAP! Since I’m working a part-time job during most days of the week, I have limited availability and recommend booking 1-2 months in advance for sessions, especially during busier months (March - June).
