Questions

Common Questions

Quick answers before visitors choose a product, service, or next step.

01What kinds of shoots do you take?+

We shoot portraits, headshots, products, events, macro detail work, and short video clips for brands and people.

02Do you work on site?+

Yes. We can shoot in your office, store, venue, or at our studio, based on the project, light, and setup needs.

03How fast do you deliver?+

Most jobs are delivered in 2 to 5 business days after the shoot. Bigger sets can take a bit longer, and we share timing up front.

04Do you retouch every image?+

We clean and color-correct final files. Deeper retouching is added when the brief calls for it, and skin work is done by hand.

05Can I book just headshots?+

Yes. Many clients book a short headshot session for teams, LinkedIn, and press use. It is a fast, simple session.

06How do I get a quote?+

Send your dates, location, and shot list. We reply with a clear quote and next steps, and can fine-tune the brief by phone.
