Frequently Asked Questions
"What is your philosophy regarding photography?"
At the heart of it, my approach to photography is all about capturing you, your real emotions, your personality, and the moments that actually feel like you. I’m all about natural interactions over stiff, forced poses because the best photos happen when you’re relaxed and just being yourself. Candid moments, polished portraits, and everything in between, my goal is to create images that feel genuine and true to who you are.

"Do you provide guidance for posing during the session?"
Yes! My style is all about capturing your authentic selves. You won’t need to say “cheese” (although I might tell you to say it to bring on a chuckle or two), because we’ll focus on interaction and genuine moments. My style is geared toward capturing your reactions.
~
"How long will it take to get my photos?"
For most sessions, your gallery should be ready within two weeks unless indicated otherwise.

"How many photos will I get?"
Each package includes different image options. Take a look at my pricing for more info!

"Do I get the copyright to my photos?"
Diana Marie Photo Studio holds the copyright to all images; however, each gallery comes with a print release for you to be able to print your images at any printer you choose.
~
"What if I need to reschedule?"
If unforeseen circumstances should arise, we can typically reschedule. The main exception is with mini sessions. They are scheduled on select days with multiple clients, so the session cannot be rescheduled; however, you may apply your payment from the mini session to a different session.
