Can I print my images?
Yes. Your images will print sharply up to 5x7", which is perfect for business cards, book jackets, and most commercial uses. If you have larger printing requirements you can order a full-size high resolution image for an additional charge (see the pricing page).

How soon will my images be ready?
I make every effort to get your final images to you as quickly as possible. That is often within 24-48 hours. I also try to accommodate rush orders for no additional fee.

Can I order more poses at a later time?
All poses must be ordered at your order session. I have streamlined my processes to operate as efficiently as possible and pass the savings on to you. I don't archive your proofs so there is no way to order at a later date.

Do you keep a backup of my images?
The answer is probably. But I make no guarantees. It's a good idea to make a backup of your own. Then make another. If that doesn't work, give me a call and I will check my archives. It is helpful to know the date of your photo session when attempting to locate your images and there is a $75 retrieval fee. I do not archive your proofs.

How should I prepare for my shoot?
Water and rest are the best things you can do for yourself before a photo shoot. Be sure to get a good night's sleep, and drink plenty of water during the 48 hours leading up to your session. It will show in your eyes and your skin. Sunburns aren't cool so avoid too much sun. If you'll be coming straight from work, consider having a second outfit in case of spills or accidents. Bring your comb, hairbrush, lip balm, and any other toiletries you may want for a quick touch up. Your hands will likely show in a few shots, so make sure your nails are ready for the spotlight.

What do I wear?
Your outfit and accessories should never overpower or outshine you. I discourage baggy clothes and suggest outfits with multiple layers to you can get more than one look from a single shoot. Bold patterns can be distracting but trendy clothes and jewelry are awesome. However, if you plan to use the same headshot for several years I strongly suggest sticking to classics in order to avoid looking dated by next season.
