Booking my Photoshoot and what to expect.
A booking fee of $250 will secure your Photo shoot in our diary. This fee includes your one hour Photoshoot and a two hour purchasing session to choose your favourite photos to have printed on the highest quality photographic products in the world.
If you are not able to come to Kyneton for your photo shoot there will also be a traveling fee based on km’s.
How long does the shoot take? The photo shoot runs for around an hour.
What do I wear? We advise no logos, no patterns and try and keep your outfit to a minimum of colours. If there are group of you ie families, its a good idea that you all compliment each other. Try to imagine what your all wearing hanging up on the wall in the photographs from the photo shoot forever.
Donna can also help you custom style your shoot, helping you to choose the outfits, makeup and hair to suit the style and look we are going for.
How do I prepare my horse? Best to wash your horse the day before or morning of your photoshoot, groom your horse and brush the mane, suggest applying hoof gloss or color. If you would use a false tail at shows, its probably a good idea for the shoot as well. Bring a nice halter, plain or fancy leather halters photograph best. Bring your riding gear also if you are going to do ridden pictures.
How do I prepare my dog or cat? You should have you dog washed the day prior and give them a good groom. You may want to
Can my friend take photos with their phone or camera during the shoot? No. All phones and camera’s are, not permitted to be used during the photoshoot.
Rescheduling due weather conditions is at the discretion of the photographer. We will touch base with you about a week prior to the shoot and then again on the morning of the shoot. We have a weather app that satellite images in real time so that we know what to expect. Often days when there are showers off and on the cloud formations make for a great backdrop and the lighting is soft and flattering, if we have the flexibility to maybe do the shoot a little early or bit later to dodge small rain fields that is ideal.
Cancellation policy. The $50 booking fee is non refundable. However we understand that things happen and can reschedule if you have an emergency. Otherwise you may incur another $250 or a $50 rescheduling fee, depending on how busy we are, there are some parts of the year where it is impossible to find another prime day such as a Saturday or Sunday. Also any gift vouchers will be nil and void.
How do I choose my art works and favorites from the photoshoot? About a week after the shoot you come to the comfy studio on my 20 acre horse property. We are five minutes from Kyneton. You’ll be comfy with a cuppa and watch a wonderful presentation to music of the whole collection of images from the shoot on a 60 inch screen. We use softwear that makes choosing your favorites straight forward. We basically cull the collection until you are left with your favourite images. One of a kind storyboards with up to 17 images and our most loved of products and there are examples of these in our showroom. You will see examples of mounted pictures, frames and albums also. Please bring any decision makers along as it will be hard choosing the best as there will be a lot of good ones and this will be your only chance to choose your pictures.
