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.
Do not just look at the best few photos. Ask to see a full sequence from one recent session. Check consistency in focus and exposure across the set. A good professional delivers 10 to 20 usable images per hour of shooting. If the portfolio shows blurred shots or poor white balance, walk away immediately to protect your investment.
Plan outfits that complement the background and lighting. Avoid busy patterns that distract from the subject. Solid colors or subtle textures work best for professional portraits. Discuss fabric choices with the photographer. Loose-fitting clothes can create unflattering shadows. Proper wardrobe coordination reduces the need for extensive editing and improves the overall aesthetic of the final images.
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 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.
Packages usually cover 1 to 2 hours of active shooting. Setup and breakdown add time. If you want 20 different looks, the session will exceed the limit. Ask how they handle overruns. Some charge per 15 minutes, others waive small delays.
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.
Evaluate how the photographer directs subjects during the test shoot. Good photographers give clear, concise instructions. They know how to make people feel comfortable in front of the camera. Poor communication leads to stiff poses and unnatural expressions. Ask how they handle difficult subjects. A patient, clear communicator prevents awkward moments and produces more authentic, engaging photos.
Standard web images are 72 DPI, while print requires 300 DPI. Confirm the maximum pixel dimensions they deliver. Ask if they downsample automatically. If you plan large prints, verify the resolution matches your frame size to avoid blurry output.
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.
