frequently asked questions

Where is your studio?

My studio is located in Brighton, just off Western Road and near the big Waitrose.


Where can I park?

My studio is in Parking Zone Z. There are Pay & Display roads around my studio but spaces are not always guaranteed as it is so central to Brighton Town. Alternatively, the nearest car parks to my studio are Regency Square or Churchill Square. There are plenty of bus links to the studio and a bus stop right outside.


What time of the day are you available to take photos or headshots?

If you’d like to shoot in my studio then I am available to take photos any time between 8am - 6pm. Outside of my studio hours I am happy to take photos pretty much whenever.


How does payment work?

I would prefer to payment to be made via bank transfer, but I am able to take cash. If you would like more edits than have been agreed within the session fee then I can only accept this payment via bank transfer. Final edits will only be made available to you after you have made full payment for the session and any extra edits you may wish to purchase. All payments take place after our session.


How and when can I cancel my session?

If you need to cancel your session please let me know as soon as possible. You can do this by sending me an email directly, or using the contact form on my website. Headshots sessions can also be rescheduled but again, I ask for as much notice as possible if you wish to do so.


Do I need to put down a deposit?

No, I do not currently ask that you put down a deposit. All payments are made after the session has been completed.


How do I get my headshots?

Once our session is over within 1 - 3 working days I will send you a link to your personal online album. These photos will have had little or no editing done to them and will be watermarked.


Can I download unedited photos and edit them myself?

No, I have spent a long time learning how to edit and developing my craft as a photographer. My editing style is specific to me and I must protect the quality of my work. When photos are shared with you they will be watermarked to stop people from sharing my unfinished work. You will, however, still be able to download all the images I share with you. I have enabled this feature for you to share the photos privately amongst friends and family to get their opinion on which photos you might have fully retouched.


How do I choose my final edits?

The online album, which will be sent to you within three days after the session, will have a feature in which you can ‘favourite’ the photographs you wish to be fully retouched. The amount of fully retouched photos available in each session are clearly listen on my pricing page, however, if you wish to have extra edited photos then you will be charged per edit. The cost of each extra edit has been listed on my pricing page for headshots sessions. This price may be negotiated otherwise for portrait sessions.

Once you have chosen your final edits, you can send me an email letting me know you’ve made your final choices, confirming how many photos you have chosen to be edited. If you have specified that you want a certain amount of edits in this email and it doesn’t correlate with how many photos you have favourited on the online album then I will let you know before I go ahead with the edits in case you wish to amend this if mistakes have been made. Your final edits will then be uploaded onto your online album for your full use, without watermarks.


How long until I get my final edits?

Once you have chosen your final edits and I have confirmed them with you, I will then get these back to you within 3 - 5 working days and will send you an email when they are ready. They will be available on the same online album which your original photos are on.


What if I’m not happy with my final edits?

If you are not happy with your final edits then you can let me know what you wish to be changed and I will re-edit the photos free of charge. I will continue to re-edit the photos until you are happy with them.


If you have any further questions or wish to go ahead and book a session with me then feel free to use the contact page to send me an email. I’ll be sure to get back to you as soon as I can.
