FAQ's
How do you photograph your sessions?
I believe portraiture is a collaborative dance, built on a foundation of trust. During our sessions, I strive for a natural, effortless flow, ensuring your comfort and creating a space where you can truly be yourself. For me, the magic of portraiture lies in the delicate balance between joyful spontaneity and the quiet, introspective moments that unfold between us. I bring a dynamic energy to our time together, keeping the session fluid and engaging, so you always feel comfortable and captivated.
What should I wear?
For our photo session, the mood and location will guide our styling choices. If we're aiming for a dreamy, romantic sunset shoot, think soft, neutral tones and flowing dresses that capture the golden light. Consider textures like linen or silk for added depth. Conversely, for edgy DJ press shots, let's make a bold statement! Think vibrant colors, striking silhouettes, and don't hold back on the accessories – statement jewelry, bold hats, anything that amplifies your unique energy. We want your personality to shine through in every frame.
Do I need hair & make-up?
While you're absolutely welcome to style your own hair and makeup, if you're looking to elevate your experience and feel truly pampered on our shoot, I can connect you with some incredibly talented artists here on the island. They'll create a bespoke look that perfectly complements your vision, leaving you feeling radiant and confident in front of the camera.
What locations do you recommend?
Ibiza, my home for over a decade, has revealed its hidden beauty to me – its secret coves, its sun-drenched landscapes, and its magical light. I can guide you to locations that resonate with your vision, considering the time of day and your convenience. Imagine capturing the ethereal glow of a sunrise on the east coast or the fiery hues of a sunset on the west. And for studio sessions, FUSE studio near San Antonio offers a sanctuary of creativity where we can collaborate and create something truly special.
What happens if we need to reschedule?
Life happens, and weather can be unpredictable. I'm dedicated to providing you with the best possible photographs. Therefore, I offer a one-time rescheduling option within a year of your original booking if needed. While deposits are non-refundable, they are fully transferable to your rescheduled session, guaranteeing you receive the photos you desire.
How many photos will I receive and how?
Your portrait session will gift you 50-100 captivating images, while events, depending on their scope, result in 150+ memories captured. Within 7-14 days, your online gallery will arrive, a portal to download, share, and cherish your moments, with the option to create beautiful prints.
Can I order prints?
Order prints conveniently via your online gallery. For specialized printing or questions, feel free to ask.
What is your policy on retouching and editing??
As part of my standard retouching process, I apply careful color correction and exposure adjustments to each photograph, refining the atmosphere we created together and highlighting your natural beauty. Rest assured, temporary blemishes like acne or cold sores will be subtly removed, allowing your true essence to shine through. For those seeking advanced beauty skin retouching, we can arrange a consultation to discuss your specific needs and the associated fee.
Do you require a deposit?
To secure your chosen date, a 50% deposit is kindly requested at the time of booking. The remaining 50% is then due after our wonderful session, and before your beautiful photos are delivered.
What forms of payment do you accept?
For your ease of payment, I accept cash, bank transfers, and all major credit cards. To ensure transparency, please be aware that a mandatory 21% Spanish IVA will be included on your invoice.
How can I credit you?
