Ask what lighting gear the professional brings. Look for strobes with modeling lights and color gels. Natural light is good for daytime, but studio sessions require controlled artificial sources. Inconsistent lighting creates harsh shadows and uneven skin tones. Proper equipment ensures sharp, detailed images without visible noise or grain in the shadows.
Screens display colors differently than printed materials. Request sRGB files for web use and CMYK for printing. If they only provide sRGB, your print shop may need to convert them, which can shift hues. Confirm the profile matches your final usage.
Many studios ban pets due to fur on equipment and potential damage. If your client brings a dog, ask about the specific rules. Find out if the photographer will pose the animal or exclude them. This prevents awkward situations during the shoot.
Most photographers delete raw files after 30 days to save storage space. Ask if they keep them for 90 days or longer. If you need re-edits later, raw files are essential. Confirm the exact retention period in writing before booking the session.
Ask for a deposit amount and final payment due date. Most professionals require 50% upfront to secure the date. The balance is usually due after image delivery. Check if the price includes travel fees or additional hours. Hidden costs often appear after the session. Clear payment terms prevent disputes and ensure you only pay for the exact services rendered and agreed upon.
Define what counts as a photo shoot versus retouching. Standard edits include cropping, color correction, and exposure adjustments. Heavy retouching, like skin smoothing or object removal, often costs extra per image. Agree on the number of retouched images in the contract. This prevents surprise invoices and ensures you know exactly what you are paying for.
Decide on a visual theme before contacting a photographer. Show them 3 to 5 examples of images you love. Specify if you want bright, airy, or moody tones. This prevents a mismatch between your expectations and the final gallery. Clear direction saves editing time and reduces the risk of requesting costly re-shoots later.
Most contracts require 7 days notice for a full refund. Cancellations within 48 hours often forfeit the deposit. Read the fine print regarding rescheduling limits. Knowing these dates helps you manage your calendar without financial penalty.
Clarify if styling is included or if you must hire professionals separately. On-site makeup takes 45 to 60 minutes per person. Confirm the photographer does not offer this service to avoid scheduling conflicts. Plan your morning routine accordingly.
Clarify who owns the copyright to the images. Usually, the photographer retains copyright while granting you personal use rights. If you need commercial usage, ask for a separate license. This costs more but allows you to use images for advertising or business purposes. Define the scope of usage in writing. This prevents legal issues and ensures you have the right to publish the images where you want.
