FAQ
What time do you usually photograph?
I choose to photograph during either sunset or sunrise. You can choose which works for you, pending my availability. The lighting is softer than when the sun is higher in the sky. The period of time right after sunrise and shortly before sunset is called the golden hour. During this period of time there are no sharp shadows. I find the lighting to be magical, and it helps me produce the best images.
What is the 30% retainer for?
The 30% retainer is required at the time of booking, and it is to confirm & secure your session. Once you sign the contract, the non-refundable retainer is due immediately. It goes towards the amount of your full session. The remaining balance is due 1 day prior to photoshoot.
When will we get our photos?
You will receive an online gallery link with all of your high-resolution photos within a maximum of 4 weeks (sometimes less depending on the season I photograph you or your family). You can download all of the photos from the gallery but also share them, choose your favorites, and order prints!
Where are you based and do you travel?
I am based in Northern Virginia, and I will provide you with a list of location suggestions upon booking. I will travel for sessions based upon my availability. A travel fee of $50+ will be added to your session if 30+ miles away from the Fredericksburg area.
Please email me at tessabimages@gmail.com with any questions regarding traveling long distance or out of state.
Extra Fees & discounts:
*There will be an additional $150 upcharge for extended family members, per extended family group, i.e. grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.
Some locations, such as state beaches, state parks, national parks, wilderness parks, etc. charge an entrance or parking fee and you are responsible for your own fees if the location chosen charges a fee.
A $50+ travel fee will be added to your session if 30+ miles away from Fredericksburg, but still within 80 miles.
Additional travel fees for locations over 80+ miles to cover travel expenses. Please inquire with destination information for an exact quote.
Additional images: $12 - You may have the opportunity to purchase additional images when I send your gallery for preview.
Discounts: Returning Clients
Where can we print our images?
I have an online store through my website here on Pixieset and you can access it when you receive your gallery OR I recommend using Mpix.com to print great quality photos.
Information to know:
All images are hand-picked and hand edited.
I will provide location suggestions & styling guidance/tips upon booking.
I will not alter any bodies, features or clothing. Please use sunscreen prior to session as I will not edit any tan lines or sunburns.
