FAQ and concerns
Photoshoot Cost
Photoshoots start at $300 and increase based on needs. These include number of photos, edits/retouching, time, travel, etc.
Do you do studio shoots?
We happily accept studio location shoots. However, we do NOT have a studio of our own. Clients are expected to pay for studio locations themselves.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend scheduling your session at least 1 month to 2 weeks in advance to ensure your desired date is available. We do not take today for tomorrow bookings. If you are going to need your photos rushed we will not accept the shoot. Last minute bookings usually fall out from poor planning (a dress didn't arrive in time, hair or makeup artist not available, minor inconveniences) so plan ahead!
Can I reschedule?
We understand that life happens and there are some things that can be out of your control. Please contact me as early as possible if there is a need to reschedule your session so we can discuss options. As for weather, We monitor it throughout the week. We will touch base the day before your session to reschedule if necessary. Please remember that the retainer fee is nonrefundable and if you fail to contact me or are a no-show we will not be held responsible.
Do you travel?
Traveling is an option. Please note that Aesthete Noire is a two-person company and travel fees will apply.
Can I bring Guests?
1 or 2 Guests are fine, location willing. Be prepared, however, to assist on the shoot. We ask that you do not bring small children without a chaperone.
What kind of shoots do you (not) do?
We do not do event photography period. We do not shoot parties of any kind. We also do not shoot christenings, weddings or baby showers. Families and children shoots are rare occasions. If it involves more than 4 people we most likely will decline the shoot.
Shooting style and raw images
Our shooting style is a mix between editorials and portraits. We love extravagant poses and a fantasy themed editing style. We do not deliver unedited images or RAW images under any circumstance. Please do not request unedited photos.
How will I receive my photos?
You will receive your album via an online gallery. This gallery will be used both for you to select your photos from the shoot and also where you will download the photos. The link does not change. You can also use the link to check if your album is being updated while you await the "Album Ready" notice.
Can I share my photos online?
Of course! We retain the copyright to all photos but please feel free to share your photos with the world. Please just remember to credit your photographer and do not put a filter on the photo.
