What should I wear on my photo shoot?

Firstly, think about why you are having the photographs and where they will be displayed. You may wish to have the colours of the clothes to match the colour scheme of your home.

I would recommend comfortable clothing. If it is a group photograph it is quite often nice to have them matching, eg all white tops, all black tops, all autumnal colours etc

For outdoor shoots, think about the weather and what colours go with the time of year and where you are hanging your photo. Generally I would avoid bright clothing or any large print on clothing.

Can I change clothes during the portrait session?

Absolutely, yes you can change clothes as often as you like within the session time, although if you are having a short session I would recommend no more than one change of clothes

What about the weather ?

Don't worry if it rains bad for your outdoor photoshoot, we will reschedule for another date within that month.

​

If it is a just little rain shower we will still go ahead and capture your memories for you, wellies and umbrellas make a great photograph! I am always up to capture rainy and snowy photos too so if you are happy to brave the elements and get some more unusual shots, I am perfectly happy to take those outdoor pictures.

Can I meet you before my wedding?

Absolutely YES YES YES, I always like to meet my wedding clients for free before they book me. This means you can see more of my work, meet me and see how we get on. It is very important you get on well with you wedding photographer as they will be spending your special day with you and you are trusting them to work closely with you.

​Once you have booked me I am always here for any questions. We also have another meet up about 6 weeks before your wedding day to finalise any timings and other things needed.

What happens if my photographer is ill or has a family emergency on my wedding day?

I would only ever cancel in exceptional circumstances.  I work with a good network of wedding photographers in the Yorkshire area and I am in many social photography groups. I would help you find a substitute photographer from this group, so that you don't need to worry about finding an alternative.

​

What happens if you are ill or have a family emergency for my family photoshoot?

I would only ever cancel in exceptional circumstances and I would reschedule as soon as was convenient within the next month.

How do I pay?

I do prefer everything through bank transfers to my account at Vicky Rennison Photography, but also accept card payments. so your money is always traceable, all the details will be on my invoice.

​For weddings and events I require a £250 non refundable deposit to confirm a booking, with half the balance to be paid 6 month before and the full balance 1 month before the wedding.

For family photoshoot I require a £50 deposit to confirm the booking and full balance to be paid 1 week before the session - unless stated otherwise.

What happens if I cancel after I have paid?

For weddings any cancellation results in loosing the deposit. If you have paid the balance, 50% of the balance will be refunded.

For portraits any cancellation within 48 hours of the shoot will result in losing 50% of the money paid. If you cancel before 48 hours we will reschedule the session.

In exceptionable circumstances where the photographer has to cancel a full refund will be given.

​

Do I get prints?

Some of my packages include prints. If you select a package that does not include prints or would like additional prints or wall art these can be ordered from me. 

​

What does digital image mean ?

Digital image means you will receive the images to via your email. This means you will receive the jpeg files of your photographs and that you can then print them or share them on-line as you like. You will receive a online gallery where  you can download high resolution for printing and low resolution to share on your socials.

​

What are printing rights?

Once you received your digital images, this mean you have full printing rights to print them where ever you like. You can also use them on wall art or on other media, such as mugs and t-shirts.

I do not hold any responsibility for the quality of prints that have not been ordered through me.

Even when I supply you with the digital files, I continue to own all copyrights.. This means you can not alter the images in any way, such as adding filters, changing the colours or using photoshop on any images.

​

What does a Documentary New-born shoot look like?

A documentary shoot means this is less posed shoot in your own home shoot is more natural, capturing first feeds, baths, cuddles and at your own home and can include pets too. We can also do some posed shots at the end.

​

Will you share my images?

I like to share my images to show future clients my work and to market my business . I will do this through my website, social media and other forms of advertising like leaflets, posters etc. I also give you a contract before the shoot.

If you do not want your images shared in this way, you must inform me when you book me so that I can ensure none of your photographs will be used in this way

Can I order extra prints or digital images?

Yes definitely, I offer prints, wall art and stunning albums.

​

Can I order extra at a later date?

Yes absolutely.

​

How long will it take for my photos to be ready?

After your session I will share a few sneaky peak photos within two days. Your full gallery with be with you within one month.

​



How do I receive my photos?

I will make a online gallery file for you to access and view your photos. You will receive the images with my watermark across the middle. When you have decided which images you would like, I will then remove the water mark and send them again to the shared file. You can then save the images to your computer or phone and order prints or wall art etc. 

All wedding images come on a USB stick and there is the option of other shoots to be saved to USB stick as well if required.
