FAQ
Q. What kind of light equipment do you use?
A. I am a natural light photographer and use only natural light - this means no studio lights, no flash, overhead lights.
Q. Where will my session take place?
A. My sessions can take place in your home or at an outdoor location, however this is entirely up to you and depends on the type of photo session you are looking for. If you are interested in a Maternity session or a Family Portrait session, I can help find a variety of locations that yield beautiful light and surroundings for your session. This is a great option for spring, summer, or fall! For Newborn sessions, I will travel to your home.
Q. What can i expect for my newborn session?
A. This is one of the most special times in your life and my goal is to capture every little moment for you to cherish forever in the most seamless, stress-free, and enjoyable way possible! Once you book your session, I will provide you with a session prep guide with all information that I have found helpful to make Newborn sessions run smoother and to make sure that your family is set up for a successful photoshoot. I go over everything you need to do to be prepared for the session. Of course, I am always available via email or phone for any additional questions.
Q. What happens if it rains?
A. New York weather is notoriously unpredictable and constantly changes, so I typically wait to call off a session until the morning of your session (or night if it is a sunrise session). There is no fee to reschedule an outdoor session if it is raining.
Q. What should I wear?
A. More than anything else, clients always ask what they should wear to their session. Have no fear, Sofya is here! I provide custom style consultation to each client as part of my service. My session prep information includes tips on coordination, color pairings, and what works best for the type of session you want. I have also been known to jump on a FaceTime call to help make outfit choices!
Q. Do i have to order prints through you?
A. You do not have to order prints through me, but I do go through a great professional lab that will give you the finest quality prints to cherish forever.
Q. Do you offer discounts?
A. I offer seasonal discounts/specials - make sure to follow me on Facebook and Instagram (follow links below) to be first to know about these offers. Additionally, I offer a $25 referral credit for any referred client that books a session with me. So send your friends, family, co-workers, and anyone else a review if you enjoyed your session with me. If they book, you get a lifetime credit to use for your next session!
