    Your personalized mood board will be sent 3-5 days of the photo shoot, whereby you can add notes to this as well should you want any additional things added.

Frequently Asked Questions

An information pack will be sent through to you upon booking and deposit paid. It will provide you with a full rundown of the day. In a nutshell, please arrive at least 10-15 min before the booked time. This allows some time to set up your mini wardrobe, makeup and hair (if applicable) and to go through some pose options and choices for the duration of the shoot.

There will be small 10min breaks in between the sessions, to either change, grab something to drink and nibble and to revitalize a little too.

The all-inclusive session takes a minimum of 3 hours, this time is a good estimate and will try to be done within the time frame. However, sometimes we do run over, so please allow for a little more time than 3 hours for this.

There is an option of bringing one friend with you to include in the shoot. However, you are welcome to bring a friend and not have them in the shoot as well. But this is limited to only one person being allowed to join you. These sessions are rather intimate, though playful, having too many people can at times be distracting. We encourage, a relaxed and supportive atmosphere and having too many people can deviate from this.

This is an optional extra cover charge and depends on the availability of hair and make-up artists for the time of booking. You are welcome to bring your own makeup and hair equipment with you on the day, which I am more than happy to assist and advise.

Another option is to get your hair and makeup done before the shoot and arrive ready with your look.

Also, this is an optional extra, having no makeup and hair free falling and flowing is at times the most beautiful. After all, our vision for this studio is for you to be you!

If you would like to make any alteration to your booking, a little advance notice is all we need. Usually, 3 days before the booking you can change the session themes you have chosen to swop for any of the other. However, if you want to include all three themes in the session, the full cost is applied and needs to be paid in full the day before the shoot.

Dress in comfortable, and/or loose clothing. Bring a dressing gown with you as well for the time between themed sessions and if you are planning on having an outfit change.

An information pack will be sent though to you and will provide additional information on some clothing options to bring with you as well.

Children are unfortunately not allowed at these sessions.

Also, when booking, you must be 18 years or older to participate.

Absolutely not. These shoots are designed to empower you and make you feel your absolute best. I will assist and direct you with poses and ensure you are comfortable with every take.

This is using a light (often a torch) with some special attachment pieces that one can move around and create images and effects. I use a low shutter speed to capture these. Either I will paint the light around you, or you can create some of your own. These images are usually unique to each session and produce some gorgeous effects.
