I AFRAID TO DO THE PHOTOSHOOT BECAUSE IT IS MY FIRST TIME

Oh, don't worry, this is something I encounter very often! Even those people, who have been photographed many times, are worried. You need to come to the shoot in a good mood, and then I will do everything and help. You and I need to find contact and overcome the feeling of awkwardness in the first minutes of shooting. I suggest my clients first chat over a cup of coffee so that I can communicate spend more time together, and get used to each other in these 15-20 minutes. And then move on to photography. And yes, I’ll tell you a secret the best shots in a photo shoot begin to appear only in the 20th minute of the photo shoot, because then you will get used to the camera and me and you will become more open and will not be tight.

DO YOU ASSIST WITH THE POSES?

Sure, I carefully prepare for the shooting and prepare references with poses. During the process, I can guide and suggest how best to do it. I also show the result during the shooting and we can adjust your pose and look together. We have a continuous process of communication and interaction

ARE OUTDOR OR INDOOR PHOTOSHOOTS BETTER?

Either setting can be wonderful when planned properly. I absolutely love shooting in studio and outdoor as well. We can discuss what you have in mind before your session date.

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO DO A PREGNANCY PHOTO SHOOT?

The best time for a pregnancy photo-session is between 24-32 weeks of pregnancy. The right time can be different for every woman but I recommend don’t wait too late because you will never know when the baby will actually come and you feel you physically more comfortable when it's not too late.

WHEN TO GET IN TOUCH?

It's never too soon to book your maternity session, book your session in advance! I want to make your Maternity photoshoot experience exciting and comfortable for you! I suggest to get in touch with the studio at least one months prior your preferred date to ensure availability. I will try our best to fit you into the schedule at the most convenient date.

HOW TO BOOK A DATE FOR THE SESSION?

To book a date, write to me in the “Contacts” section or in any convenient way, also on Instagram. After confirming the date, signing the contract and making an advance payment, the shooting date will be booked for you.

MAY I BRING MY HUSBAND / MY OTHER KIDS WITH ME?

Of course! It's very important to make a couple pictures of your family. So your family is welcome to join you during the session for a few couple pictures if you would like to. If you have older kids, it’s a good idea, to take some family pictures to remember such a special moment in your life!

HOW DO I GET READY FOR THE PHOTO SHOOT?

Our maternity sessions are tailored specifically to you and include a full consultation. After you book the date and you make a deposit, I will send you all details.

You will send me the pictures from my portfolio or Pinterest, that you like the most. We will discuss style ideas. I will prepare posing, lighting, wardrobe, and style. We will work closely with you and learn from your ideas and expectations to make sure that your vision becomes a reality.

During the shooting I will guide you, showing you how to pose in the way to flatter your new curves and your figure so that you look your best. Even if this is your first time on set, I will make you feel comfortable, at ease and make sure to give you a relaxed and fun experience. Our goal is to capture your inner strength and beauty through timeless works of art.

DO YOU PROVIDE DRESSES/WRAPES/FABRICS?

No, I only carry out the filming process. I can advise you where to rent an outfit or help you put together a look from the clothes you have in your wardrobe.

WHEN MY IMAGES WILL BE READY?

Throughout your photo shoot you will have the opportunity to preview and I will show you pictures from my camera. After your session, I will choose the best portraits for retouching. Your final images (digital files in high resolution will be ready within 7 days after the day of your session) You will also have the opportunity to view samples of our luxury products and receive our guidance in selecting the perfect display options for your custom art-work.

You will get your photos in JPG format.

The session fee DOES NOT INCLUDE any digital or print image. Files and print are sold separately.

HOW MANY PHOTOS WILL I RECEIVE?

On average, 1 hour of shooting produces 80 processed photos. Depending on the intensity and duration of photography, there may be more photographs.

DO YOU HAVE A PHOTO PRINTING SERVICE?

Yes, I got this service not so long ago and it’s not quite ordinary, it’s printing on Polaroid. It is a very popular and vibey way to present photos. I carefully select 10 photos from our shooting and print them, then pack them in a box with ribbon. This service will cost only 50 CAD and you can order it for any package of the photoshoot that you choose. It is the unusual way how you can keep your memorizes
