Frequently Asked Questions
Do you travel for photography sessions?
Yes! While I’m based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, I also travel for sessions throughout the surrounding area — from Santa Fe to Rio Rancho and beyond. Travel outside Albuquerque may include a small fee, but we’ll go over all details before booking so there are no surprises.
How long have you been doing photography?
I’ve been passionate about photography since high school, and I began working professionally in 2020. My background in cinematography and film gives me a unique perspective, blending storytelling with portraits to create images that feel cinematic and authentic.
How many photos do we get?
Each session includes a curated selection of fully edited images. For most portrait and headshot sessions, you can expect a set number of final edits based on your package. Extra images are always available for purchase if you’d like more than your package includes.
How do we receive our pictures after the shoot?
Your final, edited photos will be delivered in a private online gallery. From there, you can view, download, and share your images with ease. If you’d like professional prints, albums, or wall art, I can help you with that too.
Do you retouch photos?
Yes — every final image is professionally retouched. This includes light skin smoothing, color correction, and removing distractions. I keep edits natural so you still look like you, just at your best.
What's your turn around time?
Turnaround times depend on the session, but typically:
Headshots & portraits: 1–2 weeks
Commercial & larger projects: 2–3 weeks
Rush delivery is available upon request.
How do we book you?
Booking is simple! Start by reaching out through my contact page or giving me a call. After we confirm your session details, a deposit secures your date on my calendar.
Can you help us with planning?
Absolutely. I guide you through the process with lookbooks, mood boards, and location suggestions in Albuquerque to make sure you feel prepared and confident before shoot day. I’ll even share outfit tips and posing guidance so your session feels effortless.
