Frequently Asked Questions

How long until I receive my photos?

Most sessions are delivered within 1–2 weeks. If you need images sooner for a deadline, job application, graduation announcement, or marketing campaign, expedited delivery may be available upon request.
 

Can I book a team or group session?

Absolutely. Team headshots, staff portraits, creative groups, and organizational photography sessions can be customized based on the size of your group, location, and image requirements. Contact me for a custom quote.
 

Do you help with posing?

Yes. Most clients are not professional models, and that's completely normal. I'll guide you through posing, expression, posture, and movement throughout the session to create natural, confident photographs.
 

Where do sessions take place?

Sessions can take place outdoors, at your workplace, at a selected indoor location, or on location throughout Portland and the surrounding Pacific Northwest. We'll choose a setting that supports the look and story you want to create.
