Portrait Photography FAQ

What should I wear?

I’ll send a wardrobe guide based on your concept.

Where do we shoot?

Detroit has range—architecture, alleys, rooftops, gardens, riverfront. I’ll suggest options that fit your vibe.

How many images do I get?

That depends on your needs and your budget. You’ll choose favorites from a proof gallery; I fully retouch the selected finals. Need more? Easy add‑ons.

Commercial licensing?

Personal/press usage is standard. Brand/commercial licensing available on request.

Do you offer prints?

Yes, I can customize a variety of print packages for you, including fine art archival prints, large canvas and acrylic prints, books and more.

Can I bring a friend to my shoot?

Our photo shoot should be 1-on-1 to avoid distractions from the creative process. I'm not able to accommodate adding unplanned people (or pets) into your shoot.
