1. What do you mean by a look or a setup?
A look or a setup is defined by a combination of the following and they remain constant for a look or a setup:
-The dress
-Hair and makeup
-Backdrop
-Lighting
-Number of persons posing in front of the camera
Any change requested at the time of the shoot or in the middle of the shoot to the above will attract charges equivalent to an additional look.
2. Is it possible to take full body shots in a lighting setup for headshots/half body/sitting poses?
The simple answer is no. Lighting setup for headshots/half body/sitting positions are very different from standing poses. Concentrated/moody lighting is used in many of the headshots/half body/sitting position setups and this kind of lighting setup does not work for standing or full body poses.
However, it is possible to take headshots/half body shots (excluding sitting positions) if the lighting has been set up for full body shots. They will however not be of the same type as you would have with a dedicated headshots/half body/sitting positions lighting setup.
3. How many pictures will you share per look or setup?
-20 low-resolution photos
(Unprocessed with multiple watermarks for selection purposes only. They are not downloadable.)

4. How do I book a photoshoot with you?

5. How to make rest of the payment?
Rest of the 50% payment is to be made before the shoot session in the studio.
6. When does the pictures get delivered to me?
Your original unprocessed session photos are delivered to you by an email within one week of your session. You also have the possibility of selecting the pictures in the studio after the shoot.
From these original photos, you can shortlist the photos that you would like us to retouch and finalize.
Once you inform us of your shortlisted photos that you would like us to retouch, we will take about 2-3weeks from the date of your shortlisting to process your photos. Your final retouched, high-resolution photos are delivered to you with a Google Drive or Dropbox link by email. Due to space constraints, the link will be available for 4 weeks after delivery.
7. What if I want to include additional persons in the shoot?

14. Can I get the photographs edited the way I want?
I follow a certain editing style as seen in my pictures. This is also probably a reason why you have considered me. I generally like to get the photographs as close to the final outcome during the shoot itself- like the lighting, colours, props, makeup and hair. During the post processing, I generally take care of straitening the images, basic cleanups and colour grading if required.
If you need the pictures edited a certain way, let's talk on it. If much effort is involved, it can attract additional charges.
