FAQ

Everything I get asked about sessions, collaborations, and how I work. If your question isn't here, just ask. I usually reply within a few days.

Booking & Scheduling

How do I book a session?
Hit up the contact page, send an email, or text (214) 471-5522. I usually get back to people within a few days.
How far in advance should I book?
For seniors and families, 1-3 weeks out is the sweet spot. Underwater takes more planning so the earlier we start, the better. I only book a limited number of sessions each month, so popular weekends tend to go first.
Do you only shoot in Frisco?
Nope! Frisco is home base, but sessions happen all across North Texas: Plano, Prosper, McKinney, Little Elm, The Colony, Allen, Dallas, and beyond. Travel outside the area may have a small additional fee.
Is photography your full-time thing?
Not quite, and that’s on purpose. I keep the calendar small so every session gets my full attention instead of being a factory-line shoot.
I'm not a senior or athlete. Can I still book?
Yes. I work with individuals, couples, families, creatives, actors, artists, personal brands, and anyone drawn to bold portraits. Same session quality, tailored to what you need. Start at the portrait sessions page if none of the other categories fit you.
What if I need to reschedule?
Life happens. Sickness, weather, surprise schedule conflicts. Just let me know as soon as you can and we’ll find a new date that works. The only catch: if we booked a studio or paid location for your session, you may need to cover any cancellation fees they charge me. I’ll always be upfront about that before booking anything paid.

Pricing & Packages

How much does a session cost?
Every land session is a flat $250: portrait, senior, grad, athlete, brand, and family. The signature underwater session is $750, and pairing underwater with a land session is $900. Every one is a 60-minute guided shoot with professional editing and a private online gallery. Full breakdown on the sessions page.
What's included in every session?
All sessions come with professional editing and retouching, digital delivery via an online gallery, and a pre-session planning call so you show up feeling confident.
Can I add more photos or time?
Just ask. I’m not trying to nickel and dime anyone, so most of what people want I can work into the session without changing the price. If it turns into a much bigger production, we’ll sort out pricing together before we book.
Do you offer prints?
Yes. Print packages are available on request. Just ask after you get your gallery back.

What to Expect

What's a session actually like?
Way more chill than you’d expect. There’s guided posing the whole time so you’re never just standing there awkwardly. Most people end up having a lot of fun. The vibe is relaxed, not stiff.
How long until I get my photos back?
Typically 7-14 days. You’ll get a link to your online gallery where you can view, download, and share.
What should I wear?
Wear something that makes you feel like you. Bold colors and layers work great for outdoor sessions. For families, pick 2-3 complementary colors (not matching outfits). Underwater? Flowy fabrics that move in the water. For creative sessions, if it matters to you, bring it.
Can I do multiple outfits?
Yes. Outdoor sessions include one outfit change. Underwater sessions allow 1-2 outfits. If you want more variety, reach out and we’ll shape it together.

Senior Portraits

Can I bring a friend to my session?
For sure. A friend on the sidelines makes the whole thing more fun, and the expressions get way more natural.
Can we sneak in a parent or sibling photo?
Of course. We can grab a few family frames at the end of the session. Those tend to end up being favorites.
Do you do cap and gown shots?
Yes. We can include cap and gown shots as part of your session. Bring your cap, gown, stole, cords, whatever you’ve got.
I'm a parent booking for my senior. How does this work?
You’re in the right place. Most sessions are booked by parents. Once you reach out, I’ll walk you through the entire process: timing, location options, outfit planning, and what to expect on the day. You’ll know exactly what’s happening at every step.
Can parents be there during the session?
Yes, and I ask that a parent or guardian stays for the entire senior session. You don’t have to be in frame (most parents hang back and watch), but I want an adult there start to finish. We can grab a few family frames at the end too if you want.

College & Graduation Portraits

Do you photograph college students and graduates?
Yes. I work with college students and recent graduates from UNT, UT Dallas, SMU, TCU, Collin College, Texas Woman’s University, Dallas Baptist University, and schools across DFW. Same session, whether you’re mid-degree or a few years past it.
Can I book a graduation portrait session with my cap and gown?
Absolutely. Bring your cap, gown, stole, cords, honor cords, whatever you’ve earned. We can shoot at a campus, a park, or any location that fits the look you want.
Do you shoot on college campuses?
Yes. I’ve shot across DFW campuses and I’m happy to meet you at yours. Some campuses require a permit for professional photography so we’ll figure that out during planning.
I already graduated. Is it too late to book?
Not even close. Plenty of people book graduation portraits months after they finish. If you’ve got the cap and gown, we’re good to go.

Sports & Athlete Portraits

Can you shoot at my field or gym?
Yes. On-location shoots with professional lighting are no problem. I come to your field, gym, or training facility.
Do you do recruiting portraits?
Yep. Clean, sharp headshots and action-style portraits that are ready for recruiting profiles and highlight reels.
Do you work with teams?
Yes. Custom team pricing is available. Reach out through the contact page and we’ll put together a package.
Can I bring my gear and uniform?
Please do. Jerseys, cleats, bats, balls, helmets. Whatever represents your sport. It all adds to the final look.

Underwater Portraits

Do I need to be a strong swimmer?
You just need to be comfortable being in the water. There’s a full safety briefing before every session and you’re always in control.
Where do underwater sessions happen?
In a private backyard pool, mine or yours. It’s a controlled, comfortable environment.
Is it safe?
Very. Safety is the top priority. Every session starts with a briefing, and you set the pace. If you need a break, you take a break. No pressure.

Families

What if my kids are camera-shy?
Totally normal, especially with teens and tweens. I keep things low-key and give easy direction so nobody feels put on the spot. Most kids warm up fast once they see it’s not a stiff, traditional shoot.
Can we bring our dog?
Please bring your dog. Pets make family sessions way more fun and the photos way more memorable.
What ages do you work with?
Family sessions work best with older kids who can have fun with some light direction. I keep groups to 5 people max so everyone gets great coverage.
