FAQ
How do I book a session with you?
You can book a session by filling out the contact form on my website under “Contact.” For a quicker response, feel free to message me directly on Instagram @medaly.photography. I’ll get back to you with my availability and next steps.
How long does it take to receive the final edited images?
Typically, you’ll receive the final edited images within one week after we review and select the final photos together. The timeline depends on how quickly we can choose the images for editing. If you need the images sooner, a rush fee can be applied, and I’ll have them ready within 48 hours.
What should I wear for my session?
Wear something that feels like you! Choose outfits that make you feel comfortable and confident, and avoid overly busy patterns that may distract from the main focus—you. If you need guidance, I can help with outfit suggestions based on the type of shoot!
Can you recommend any good locations?
Absolutely! I’m happy to suggest locations if you don’t have one in mind. If you already have a specific idea or place you love, feel free to share it—I’m always open to shooting somewhere meaningful to you.
WHAT IF THE WEATHER IS BAD ON THE DAY OF AN OUTDOOR SHOOT?
We’ll monitor the weather leading up to the shoot, and if conditions aren’t ideal, we’ll decide together if we want to go ahead or reschedule. If we choose to reschedule, we can pick a more convenient time for both of us.
THIS IS MY FIRST PHOTOSHOOT, WHAT SHOULD I KNOW?
Congratulations on taking the first step! The most important thing is to be yourself—authenticity will always shine through in photos. While it’s natural to feel a bit nervous, confidence is key, and I’ll help guide you through natural poses and movements to make you feel at ease. Make sure to get enough rest and hydrate beforehand so you feel your best physically and mentally. Trust the process: photography is a collaborative experience, and we’ll work together to capture something amazing. For product shoots, ensure your product is clean and prepped to showcase its best features.
WHAT IF I’M NERVOUS ABOUT BEING PHOTOGRAPHED?
It’s completely normal to feel nervous, especially if it’s your first shoot! A lot of people feel the same way before stepping in front of the camera. My job is to make you feel comfortable and confident. I’ll guide you through poses and expressions to help you feel relaxed and natural. The key is to trust the process and focus on enjoying the experience—you’ll be amazed at how great you look when you're having fun and being yourself!
Can I bring a friend or family member to my session?
You’re welcome to bring a friend or family member if it makes you more comfortable. For sessions where the focus is on you, I suggest keeping the number of extra people minimal to avoid distractions and keep the focus on your experience.
