Frequently Asked Questions

What if I’m not photogenic?

Most of my clients feel awkward in front of the camera at first — that’s completely normal. My job is to make you feel relaxed and give you direction so you look natural and confident without even thinking about it. You don’t need to be a model. You just need to show up.

What should I wear?

We’ll go over this during your phone consultation. In general: wear what makes you feel confident. Avoid busy patterns and large logos. Bring 2–4 outfit options and we’ll narrow it down together based on the locations we’re shooting at.

Where do we shoot?

San Diego has incredible variety — beaches, rooftops, urban streets, parks, restaurants, and bars. We’ll pick locations that match your personality and the vibe you want on your profile. All locations within San Diego County are included in the package price.

What’s the turnaround time?

Edited photos are delivered within 5–7 business days via Dropbox or Google Drive.

Will my ex see these on social media?

Your photos are delivered privately — they’re yours and only yours. I never post client dating photos on social media without explicit permission. Your privacy is 100% respected.

What if I want to redo a shot?

During the shoot, we review shots together as we go so you can see what’s working. If something isn’t clicking, we adjust on the spot. You’ll never be stuck with photos you’re not happy with.

Do you offer custom packages?

Yes — if you want to shoot at a specific location like your favorite bar, restaurant, or a live event, we can build a custom session around that. Just mention it during your phone consult and we’ll put something together.
