FAQ

HOW MUCH IN ADVANCE DO I NEED TO BOOK THE PHOTOSHOOT?

The Christmas Season is the busiest season of the year. The earlier you book, the better, so I can make sure I will have your desired date available. I’d usually start planning at least 3 months in advance.

Do you need a deposit or a prepayment for the photoshoot?

Since Christmas is the busiest time, I usually get multiple inquiries for the same dates and times. To make sure everything runs smoothly, I do require a minimum of 30% non-refundable deposit to secure your booking. The rest of the balance can be paid 1 week before the photoshoot. For more details on payments, reschedules and cancellations visit my terms and conditions page.

Which locations will we visit?

Depending on the duration of your photoshoot we can visit some of the most charming Christmas markets like the one by Rathaus and the one at Karlsplatz, and iconic Christmas locations like the Christmas bow, the Opera area and the twinkling lights of the city.

WHAT’S THE BEST TIME FOR A PHOTOSHOOT?

I personally love the early afternoon for the Christmas market day mood, or the sunset and blue hour for more twinkling lights and magical atmosphere. Mornings are less crowded, but the Christmas lights are not on and most Christmas markets haven’t opened yet.

How do you edit the photos?

I edit the photos in my own style (like you see on my website and social media). I usually edit only the colors, lighting, and cropping if needed. I do not alter people’s appearance, body shape, etc. I like to keep the images natural and true to the moment. I can remove however small, bothering objects or distracting blemishes and pimples. Skin smoothing on closeup portraits is also something I would usually do (unless requested not to).

DO YOU SEND ALL THE RAW, UNEDITED PHOTOS FROM THE PHOTOSHOOT?

I do not give the RAW files. Each photoshoot includes a selection (I delete any closed eyes, out-of-focus, or duplicate photos) of the best unedited photos in standard jpeg  Because I shoot on FujiFilm the unedited photos in jpeg already have a film simulation filter compared to other cameras, so they are not completely untouched, some people do love the Fujifilm effect.
Your edited photos however will be completely edited by me (no FujiFilm filter) in my editing style.

What if it rains on the day of the photoshoot?

I would usually monitor the forecast a few days before our scheduled date and keep you updated if it looks like we might need to reschedule.

The forecast in Vienna is not usually accurate and changes often, so if there is no strong indication the weather will be bad we can keep it as planned.

In the case that it rains we can reschedule if both our schedules allow. I recommend choosing a date for your photoshoot at the beginning of your trip so we will have some flexibility if the weather is not great.

Sometimes it is enough just to start later or earlier than planned to avoid rain. I am usually flexible if we need to do so due to the weather conditions.

What gear do you use?

I am a FUJIFILM lover. I currently shoot on a FUJIFILM X-T5 with prime lenses xf 35mm f1.4 and xf 56mm f1.2. Mostly I’d use the 35mm lens but for special portraits or fashion shoots I’d go with the 56mm. I absolutely love the retro feel and mood of Fuji.
