FAQ
Why is there a limit on the number of photos included in my package?
I believe in quality over quantity. Each image you receive is carefully selected and edited to ensure it meets my standards. By limiting the number of photos, I can focus on delivering a curated selection that captures the essence of your event or session beautifully. Extra edits can always be ordered and I will make sure to make a good package deal.
What should I wear for my photoshoot?
Choosing outfits can enhance your photos significantly. I recommend wearing clothing that makes you feel comfortable and confident. Solid colors and subtle patterns usually work best, while avoiding busy prints or logos. If you’d like, I can provide more specific styling tips based on the shoot type. I usually offer a color wheel and detailed consultation before the shoot where we look into your skin type and photo style. That's why I also love to work on Pinterest boards together before the shoot.
How can I prepare for my photoshoot?
Preparation is key! I recommend planning your outfits, discussing locations, and practicing any poses you might want to try. A pre-shoot consultation can help us align on your vision and ensure a smooth and fun session.
Can I bring props or additional people to my session?
Yes, I encourage you to bring props that reflect your personality or theme! If you want to include additional people, please let me know in advance so we can plan accordingly.
Why don’t you provide RAW files?
RAW files contain unprocessed data from the camera, which requires specific software to open and edit. By providing only edited images, I ensure that you receive the best quality and consistency in the final product. The editing process is a crucial part of my artistic vision, and sharing RAW files may lead to misunderstandings about the intended outcome.
Can I request specific edits or styles?
Absolutely! I encourage clients to share their preferences and inspirations. While I may not replicate a specific style exactly, I will do my best to accommodate your vision within my artistic approach.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule my session?
Life happens, and I understand that plans can change. If you need to cancel or reschedule, please let me know as soon as possible. Depending on the circumstances, your deposit may be transferable to a new date.
What if I want to order additional prints or products after my session?
I’d be happy to help with additional prints or products after your session. Just reach out, and we can discuss your options and pricing.
Do you travel for shoots?
Yes, I love to travel! While I am based in Amsterdam & Munich, I am open to travel for shoots. Additional travel fees may apply, depending on the distance and specifics of the project. If you book a big session (or find others that need photos at the location) I will not charge travel fees.
What types of photography packages do you offer?
I offer a variety of photography packages tailored to different needs, including [list types such as weddings, portraits, events, corporate shoots, etc.]. Each package includes a specific number of hours, edited images, and additional services. Please check my website or contact me for detailed information on each package.
How do I secure my booking?
To secure your date, a non-refundable deposit is required at the time of booking. Detailed payment instructions will be provided during the booking process.
Why do you prefer to exchange Pinterest boards before the shoot?
I find that exchanging Pinterest boards is a fantastic way to visualize your ideas and preferences. It allows us to align our creative visions and ensures that I capture the specific styles, poses, and moods you have in mind. By sharing boards, we can identify key inspirations, making our time together more productive and tailored to your vision.
Where can I find help with my PicDrop gallery?
PicDrop is a simple tool for accessing your photos, but if you need assistance, you can visit the PicDrop Help Center: https://www.picdrop.com/web/faq for common questions. If you have any issues with downloading or accessing your gallery, feel free to contact me, and I’ll assist you directly.
How can I use the photos on social media / website / print?
When posting photos from our session on social media, I kindly ask that you tag my Instagram account (@just_mycameraandeye) as a way to credit my work. This helps others discover my photography and supports my business! For print or website usage, please include my full name, “Photographer: Anna-Luisa Ballauf,” in a visible and appropriate spot. This ensures proper attribution and helps maintain consistency in how my work is represented.
Can I use the photos for commercial purposes?
If you intend to use the photos for commercial purposes such as advertising, branding, or marketing, we can discuss a commercial license. This is separate from the standard package, and pricing will depend on the scope of use. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about this.
