Frequently asked questions
How do I book a session?
Choose a date and time from my calendar to reserve your spot. I'll follow up to confirm your date, time, and location. To secure your spot, payment is required in advance via Venmo (@Margaux-S-1). That's what holds your date and guarantees it's just for you.
How much does a session cost?
Individual sessions are $150. Group sessions (two or more people) are $200. No hidden fees, no packages, no upsells.
What's included in the price?
Everything. A pre-session chat, 60 minutes of shooting time, one outfit change, professional editing, and a digital gallery you'll actually want to share.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
Life happens, no worries. If something comes up, reach out and we'll find a new date that works. Just keep in mind that all sales are final and non-refundable.
How many photos will I receive?
You'll get a curated gallery of the best shots from your session, professionally edited. Quality over quantity.
How long until I get my photos?
You can expect your gallery within one to two weeks of your session. If you need them sooner just let me know and I will do my best to get them to you.
How will I receive my photos?
Through an online gallery you can download, share, and post from anywhere.
What should I wear?
Whatever feels like you. Bring your style, your vibe, your aesthetic. If you want help thinking it through, we can talk about it before the shoot, or you can bring two or three outfit options and we'll decide together. When in doubt, avoid super busy patterns and logos that distract from your face.
Can I share my Pinterest board or inspo pics?
Please do. Seriously. The more you share upfront, the better the photos turn out. Screenshot everything you love and send it my way or pull it up at the shoot.
Can I change outfits?
Yes, one outfit change is included in every session. If you want more, just let me know ahead of time.
How many people can be in a group session?
Groups of 2 to about 7 work well. If you're planning something bigger, reach out so we can plan accordingly.
Do you photograph guys?
Absolutely. Guys are just as welcome to book a session as anyone else. Whether it's solo shots, senior portraits, sports, couples, or a group with your crew, I've got you. Most guys come in thinking they're going to hate the whole thing and leave with photos they actually want to post. That's kind of the goal.
Where do you shoot?
I shoot on location in the Bay Area. Parks, urban spots, beaches, wherever fits the vibe you're going for. I also have some favorite spots depending on the look you're after, so if you're not sure where to go, I've got ideas. We'll figure it out together during our pre-session chat.
Do you charge a travel fee?
Sessions within 20 miles are included in the session price. For locations beyond that, a travel fee of $20–$25 applies. If you're further out, just reach out and we'll figure it out together before you book.
