Frequently Asked Questions:

​1. What’s included in the photographer’s work?


It all starts with clear and friendly communication.

Then comes the photoshoot itself — usually 1 hour or more — plus travel time.

I’ll help guide you with posing, choose locations,

and support you every step of the way.

After the shoot, I spend 6–8 hours editing your images (for a 1-hour session).

 2. What is included in the price?

 

Everything that is indicated in the first question and plus professional equipment,

experience, many online/ offline courses and etc.

3. I'm not a model and don’t know how to pose. Will you help?

 

Absolutely! That’s part of my job.
You don’t need any modeling experience — I’ll guide you throughout the shoot.
And if you check out my portfolio, you’ll see that most of my clients are everyday people, just like you.

 4. Can I get all the photos?


Yes, you can. I sell raw photos ($150).

 5. How many outfits can I change in 1-hour?


Usually, up to 2 outfits.

One main location.
But keep in mind: a single NYC location often includes several great photo spots nearby!

Yes, I do. Deposit is needed for booking your date.

Yes, absolutely! We’ll reschedule in case of illness or bad weather.
 

12. Why should I do a photoshoot?


Sure — it’s great for Instagram... but that’s not the main reason.
A photoshoot is a beautiful way to capture your life, your story, and the people you love.
It’s not about perfect poses or filters — it’s about creating meaningful memories.

And honestly? It’s one of the most fun and inspiring experiences you can have.
I promise you’ll love it.
