How do I book a portrait session? You can book your session by contacting me directly by email or by phone. A QR250 deposit is required to secure your booking, and the balance of the session fee is required at the time of your session. What location do I choose? Outdoor locations offer more space for children to relax and be natural, while indoors at your home or a studio is more constrained, although I still aim to capture candid moments regardless. I can provide a contemporary white, grey or black background for a studio session, while outdoors offers its own unique backdrops such as Souq Waqif, Katara, The Pearl, West Bay Lagoon, desert dunes or beach settings. For something a little different, you may consider A Styled Session to create your own unique experience. Seasonal climate and temperatures may also influence your choice. If I'm not familiar with a location I'll arrange a visit to ensure it's suitable, and to advise on the best time of day to schedule your session. How long do the sessions take? An average session takes between 1 - 1.5 hours depending on how quickly we all work together to create a beautiful set of images. Small children usually get tired (and bored!) after an hour. To keep everyone happy I will allow time for breaks to have a snack or a drink. When will I see the photos from the session? Up to one week after your session I will upload the images to the Client Access area of my website and email you a password to access your online gallery. You can also share the access code with your family and friends for viewing. How do I order prints? You can order directly online via the Client Access area. Payment can be made with major credit and debit cards via PayPal. How long will it take to receive my prints? If you order photographic prints or a disk of images it will take up to one week for me to arrange production. Canvas printing and framing can take two weeks or more. Can I arrange my own printing? Yes...if you purchase the disk of images you will receive the high resolution image files and you can arrange your own printing. If you choose to print yourself I can only guarantee the quality of the digital image files and not the printing. |
