FAQs
What is the difference between personal branding and a portraits?
Personal branding and portraits serve different purposes.
Personal branding creates a unique identity, highlighting values, skills, and passions, a professional presence. It builds reputation through storytelling.
Portraits focus on capturing appearance and personality at a moment in time, giving insight into someones true nature. The use of light and shadow, along with facial expressions, helps tell stories that are deeper than just appearance.
In summary, personal branding shapes identity, while portraits provide a visual snapshot of it. Both are essential but serve distinct roles.
Do you photograph headshots?
Yes, I do! Headshots can be taken in any of the sessions or on a headshot studio day. On location team headshots are available should you have a number of staff to be photographed at your location.
What do I bring to a portrait or branding session?
All you need to bring is your outfits, accessories and of course your lovely self! We will discuss all of this in detail before your session and you’ll be sent a handy guide to help you prep like a pro.
Do you edit my images?
Yes, all of your selected images are lightly edited. Editing is done in house and images are not sent off shore. I believe in editing to enhance features and to keep the subject recognisable. There’s no point looking like a stranger.
Custom quotes are available for any additional retouching required.
How are images delivered?
Images are delivered as digital files via a Dropbox link. Once you receive your link you’ll have one month in which to download, safely store and make back ups of your images. Image storage/ library services are not offered. Re uploading of images may incur an administration fee.
Do you release RAW files?
No, I do not release RAW files.
Chances are you are interested in my work based on my style. My editing style is part of that process and I like to deliver a completed product.
How do I pay for my session?
Select your session and pay to secure your chosen date and time. Payments can be made via cash and bank transfer.
