FAQ

Just get in touch through my contact page with a few details about what you need - whether it’s a headshot, portrait session, or production shoot. From there, we’ll discuss ideas and confirm availability. Simple and straightforward.

Yes - I regularly travel across the South West and am happy to discuss projects further afield. I don’t currently drive, so travel is arranged via public transport or taxis, and any additional costs are agreed upon in advance.

Yes! I’m based in Weston-super-Mare and regularly travel across the South West for shoots. I don’t currently drive, so I use public transport or lifts to get to locations - if you’re further afield, we can discuss travel time and any extra costs when booking.

Turnaround times vary slightly depending on the project, but most galleries are ready within 1–2 weeks. Larger productions or events may take a little longer, and I’ll always keep you updated throughout the process.

I understand things change, especially in the creative world. If you need to reschedule, just let me know as soon as possible - there’s no fee with at least 48 hours’ notice. Cancellations within 48 hours may incur a small charge to cover time and planning.

Absolutely. Rehearsals and behind-the-scenes photography are some of my favourite shoots - they capture the real process and energy that audiences never see. These can be booked as standalone sessions or added to a production package.

Yes, but always naturally. I make subtle adjustments to lighting, colour, and skin tone while keeping texture and authenticity intact. My aim is for you to look like your best self, not an edited version.

For headshots, keep it simple and authentic- choose outfits that reflect who you are and what you’d wear for an audition or meeting. Avoid bold patterns or logos that distract from your face, and bring a couple of options if you’d like some variety in tone or texture.

For creative portraits, you can lean more into your personality or the story you want to tell. Think textures, layers, or statement pieces that feel like you - something that adds character without feeling like a costume. Whatever the shoot, the key is authenticity. You should feel comfortable, confident, and recognisably yourself.

Yes - I guide you through the session so you never feel awkward in front of the camera. Whether it’s a headshot or a creative portrait, I’ll help you find natural, relaxed and expressive poses that bring out your personality and confidence.

Of course. You’re welcome to bring a friend, colleague, or partner if it helps you feel more comfortable - especially for your first session. I just ask that they keep the atmosphere calm and supportive during the shoot.

We’ll keep an eye on the forecast leading up to your session. If the weather turns, we can reschedule at no extra cost or move to a covered location. Flexibility is key - I’ll always make sure we get great results.
