► DO YOU OFFER CUSTOM PACKAGES?
Yes! If you’re looking for something specific please let us know! No two couples are the same and we get that! Please note, that we currently require a minimum investment of $250.
► DO YOU PRICE MATCH?
It depends.
Many factors play into how each photographer prices their services. For example, years of experience and the cost of running their business typically play a fairly large role in their pricing structure. For each photographer, these numbers all look different, hence why you’ll find prices from very low to extremely high. If you find a better deal but would rather work with us, feel free to reach out and let us know. We can not guarantee we’ll be able to match the other photographer, but we’re always happy to work with our clients to come up with the best deal for them. As mentioned above, we require a minimum investment of $250
► DO YOU PICK WHICH IMAGES COME WITH OUR PACKAGE?
We do not. Once your session has been edited we will upload it to a private online gallery for you to make your selections on which images you would like.
►HOW MANY IMAGES WILL THERE BE FOR US TO SELECT FROM?
Image selection will vary from one session to the next. On average, a smaller session duration will result in fewer images to select from. For example, a 30-minute session will typically have between 50 - 100 images for you to choose from, while a 60-minute session will usually have 100 - 200+.
► WHAT TIME OF DAY IS BEST FOR OUR SESSION?
This will vary slightly depending on your location choice. For example, if you want your session on the beach then we suggest scheduling your session for either sunrise or sunset. This is when lighting will be optimal for beach portraits. Sunrise is a bit more unpredictable when it comes to lighting because it is solely dependent on the cloud coverage that morning. Sunset guarantees you at least 10 to 15 minutes of the perfect light.
► WHERE SHOULD WE HAVE OUR SESSION?
Most of our clients are looking for beach portraits. There are many beautiful beaches in the area to choose from. Our personal favorite is Huntington Beach State Park in scenic Murrells Inlet, SC. This park offers 3 miles of unspoiled beachfront that is surrounded by lush dunes, saltwater marshes, and the historic Atalaya Castle. Our second choice would be Myrtle Beach State Park. Although generally more busy than Huntington, this park also has a lovely beach, a rustic boardwalk, and an iconic pier.
If you are looking for locations other than the beach, we’re happy to suggest alternative locations.
► WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR?
Again, this will vary slightly depending on your location choice. Our suggestion is to consider choosing a color palette of 2-6 complementary colors and building outfits around those colors. Avoid busy patterns that can be visually distracting, and instead choose simple pieces that will stand the test of time. The goal is to complement each other's outfits while still standing out as individuals. Check out our Pinterest Board for inspiration.
► WHAT ABOUT THE WEATHER?
Rain: Weather patterns around here can be very unpredictable. Even at times when it’s calling for rain it can end up being beautiful by your session. We will keep a close eye on the weather for you and be in constant contact with you throughout the day of your session with updates. If we need to reschedule, and we have something open, then we will give you our next available spot. Please keep in mind that this may be a different time of day than what you initially booked.
Wind: We typically do not reschedule for wind unless it’s at dangerous speeds.
