Define what retouching includes. Basic cleanup removes dust and minor blemishes. Heavy editing changes facial structure or removes wrinkles. Ask for a sample of their work to see the difference. This prevents disappointment with the final result.
If you are shooting outside, verify who secures the location permit. Many public spaces require a paid permit for commercial photography. Confirm travel time and parking access for heavy equipment. Bad lighting or restricted areas can waste hours. Plan for weather backups if shooting outdoors. This avoids delays and ensures the session stays on schedule.
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.
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.
Ask exactly how long post-production takes. Standard delivery is 2 to 4 weeks for edited high-resolution files. Rush services cost more but shorten this window to 48 to 72 hours. Confirm if you receive raw files or only treated images. Knowing the timeline helps you plan when you need the images for printing or digital use.
Ask about their data backup protocol during the session. Professional cameras write to two cards simultaneously. This prevents total data loss if one card fails. If they use a single card, ask about their storage plan. Losing your photos is not a possibility. Reliable backup systems protect your investment and ensure you receive all the images you expect from the session.
Ask how you receive final files. Cloud storage links often expire after 14 days. USB drives can be lost in the mail. Download everything immediately to your local drive and verify file integrity before closing the browser window.
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.
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.
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.
