However, I prioritize working with, supporting and highlighting women of colour, BIPOC, LGBTIQA+, underrepresented minorities and marginalized groups whenever possible. I want to be a part of helping to create an equitable and inclusive future.Session FeesStarting at $80 per hour, depending on location, commute, scale of the project and post processing time.For example, a past client event was held outside of Vancouver and transportation had to be arranged. Client agreed to a specified hourly rate for 8 hours and paid transportation to and from the venue. Photos also had to be processed on location as soon as they were taken, so a higher hourly rate was adjusted to reflect the work provided.All fees will be going towards upgrading camera and computer equipment, lenses and expanding the range of work I'm able to take on with safe commute, travel and accommodation expenses.I am unable to and can no longer take on projects without compensation unless otherwise previously discussed or for charitable purposes and organizations. Thank you for your understanding.CancellationsWe all have unexpected situations that could come up at any time. If you need to cancel, please let me know within 24 hours before the session or as soon as possible. I want my photography services to be accessible while also valuing my time and effort. If cancellation happens on my end, all session fees will be fully refunded and the session will be promptly rescheduled as soon as possible.Post Session Details⚫ Post processing turnaround time — Fastest: 3-4 business days. Slowest: 5 days or longer, depending on my availability, amount of work and when you require the photos. No urgent projects please.

⚫ Please rest assured I will send over as many photos as possible that meet my standardsConditions⚫ I do not have a private studio
⚫ Providing staging and set up materials is up to your own discretion. I will try my best to work with what you have or help find a setting that suits your needs.
⚫ I mostly work with natural lighting (outdoors, on location) and do a bulk of client photoshoots in the summertime. I enjoy golden hour lighting, which provides the photography style I want to be known for -- boldness and contrast.
⚫ I do not have studio or lighting equipment but looking into investing this in the near future
⚫ I do minor touch ups (blemishes, small marks, etc) when necessary, but I do not alter faces/bodies or heavily airbrushPhotography AgreementFor small businesses and professional companies, a photography agreement will be sent via email and needs to be digitally signed before the session. I will be asking if you’ve carefully read everything on this site and the agreement when we discuss details to avoid any misunderstandings on what to expect from both of us working together.Please be mindful when considering my services, as I'm working towards becoming a professional photographer. I take the responsibility of holding up my end of the deal seriously, as I want to deliver the best work I possibly can. It takes a significant amount of time and labour to take the best photos possible within a certain time frame, post processing and preparing the files to send to the recipient. I have the right to refuse service at any time if any issues come up.If you're patient, collaborative and have an open mind to someone who is working very hard to build their professional portfolio and develop foundational experience, please don't hesitate to contact me. As long as you keep expectations realistic, I’m looking forward to working together with you. Thank you for your support!
