FAQs
​
​
Where are you located? Can you travel
I am in-between Mill Hill East and Finchley Central North London - There is plenty of beautiful shoot location within 5 miles of where I live.
Yes I can travel within 15 miles of my location more than that we will discuss in advance for potential compensation for travel.
​
​
Do you do Studio Shoot?
If your require a studio shoot I know few locations that we can rent but this will be additional fees or alternatively I have studio kit that we can setup anywhere so if you have a good indoor location we can discuss the plan
​
​
Do you do Food or Product photos or videos?
Yes - I actually do that for myself as I also have Instagram for food images and YouTube how to cook video so if you have a restaurant that needed photo upgrade or a promo video we can do it. I also have product / brand online business that I do my own video and photos for it.
​
​
You seems to do a lot of different style of photography - why is that?
Because I simply love creating new digital art content whatever the subject or genre it is. I am a strong believer that as long as you tell me exactly what your requirements and style you looking for we can agree or otherwise I will be honest if I cannot do it after our first initial conversation.
​
​
Your Prices and session packages?
I am easy - as long as we can discuss early - I have been told that I charge too cheaply, but for me I just love creating arts so why not get paid for it as well but I can assure you the quality and experience is not cheap at all, its mainly to just compensate my time and expertise
​
Why do you have different prices?
Because different types of videography / photography requires different types of preparation and its based on my time planning and executing it.
​​​
​
Can you provide different resolution, sizes etc.,
for example Instagram story or post?
100% just tell me your requirements and what social media it is for and we can adapt to your needs.

​
How do I select the images I want?
Before you leave, we’ll have a good look through and get a sense of what makes a perfect photos and videos for you.
I will then send a snapshot of all the images and send them over via an online gallery I use google drive, you will the only one will have access to it.. You then simply select what shots you want edited and I will edit the selected images and send it to you full quality.
​
​
How can I review the videos?
We will review the videos if needs be on every take if you wish, however I will not going to send you all the footage, you will however get a sample draft cut/edit for review before the final postprocessing, in the end when we do video it will be based on our discussion and we will plan ahead creating the storyboard that we will agreed upon
​
​
Can you provide the Raw file?
I'm afraid not, No. Simply, To protect both my personal style as well as the photo/video industry as a whole, I never release unedited/RAW images or video clips.
​
How do I get the files?
After you have chosen which images you want, I edit them up for you and send them over via google drive which is specific for your access only. I send them as web optimised files, perfect for Instagram, LinkedIn, your website, basically all of the internet and as print optimised files should you ever need to print them.
​
​
Can I edit the images myself?
Definitely not, sorry. Again this is about my reputation. However, there may be circumstances where this is negotiable, such as if you wanted to add a colour tone to the images for your branding, but please discuss this with me before the shoot.
​
​
How early should I reach out about booking you?
Anytime - but get in touch as soon as you can to reserve a date and make sure I’ll be available.
​
​
How do I know I’ll be happy with the photos?
As we shoot we will have constant communication and you can ask me to check the images even every single click if you wanted to. So as we shoot, you can see what we’re getting. If you don’t like the direction we’re going in, just say. It’s much easier to make changes to the shoot as we’re going along rather than afterwards. everyone in the shoot day have their own take on how to be creative.
​
​
How should I prepare for my shoot?
Before the shoot we will be discussing the plans ahead of time and I will be in contact communication with you, but basically, sleep, drink lots of water and don’t get drunk the night before.
​
When do I pay you?
Basically I require a £45.00 down payment - See my T&Cs for more info. Then before the shoot or while in the shoot you can pay me the time for example if its for 3 hours shoot and 2 hours editing - You initially pay £45 down payment then on the actual shoot you pay £90 and the rest is when I deliver the final images, in this example it will be £90.00
​
​
How do I pay you?
Cash or bank transfer.
​
How do you edit?
I use a combination of Photoshop and Lightroom. I do light skin retouching and tidying up, just enough to make you look your best. I then do a colour balance adjustment and some small tweaks to the eyes to make them pop, and some general edits. for Video I use Davinci Resolve.
​
​
What equipment do you use?
I shoot mainly with NIKON Z6 but I also have Nikon D3s and Nikon D600 for those times that I need to shoot photos and videos. Just more efficient to have each cameras setup with specific lenses so I can move from videos to photos to closeup to wide angle.
I also have multiple fast lenses. Collections of different lightings and soft-boxes - and for videos I have Zhuyin crane 2 for gimbal and Atomos ninja v for better monitor view
