FAQ - PROFESSIONAL photoGRAPHY

$370 to the $1000 + range, depending what type of session: elopement, couples, family photography, big family, surprise proposal, plus how long a photo session, how many edited photos, touchup or not, location on the island, etc.  

I'm flexible on swapping dates, times, when I can, so if you cancel because you no longer can make it or you think you won't like the weather, I'll only refund the deposit if I'm able to rebook the time. If it starts to rain during the shoot, I'll continue to shoot unless it pours and we both agree to call it a day. To reschedule you'll need to cover the cost of a new ROE permit ($20). If we cannot reschedule, your deposit can be used up to 1 year later on a future shoot with me, not transferrable, not redeemable for cash. 

Unless it's pouring I usually shoot. An umbrella is a great looking prop in a photo shoot so having one with you is an awesome idea. Bear in mind, rain is commonplace in Kauai. That's why it's so verdant. While it's not common to have persistent rain, five minute showers are typical.   See cancellation policy question in this Q and A.

You will download your Kauai photography full resolution digital images from a private gallery I will make for you, linked to your email. So it's very important once you book to give me your email address and your mobile phone number.    

Shared ownership. You and me. You have the right to print, sell, publish, etc. When you post on social media I would appreciate being tagged.  I have the right to use your photos and or video for SunsetsAtThe Beach publicity including print, social media, and websites.   

From the shoot date it is typically 2 to 5 days, a few days longer for weddings with guests and   multiple hour events.

There isn't an additional fee for single families up to 5 people. For the 6th person onward the fee is slightly higher because every person in the photo is edited for, at minimum, light and shadow.  So more people equates to longer editing times.  

 Yes if you purchase a $200 proofs add-on to your package.  If you don't choose the proofs option you still have an option to buy extra photos as I always edit more photos than included in your package. You will always have some selection leeway.  

30-mins before actual sunset if conditions prevail I'll have more control with lighting.  Kauai mornings can be amazing, too. But whatever time, it's really all up to atmospheric conditions, which determine red lightwave or blue lightwave prominence, a blazingly colorful sky or a white sky. Needless, I produce wow-factor photographs at all times of the day. 

YES. I typically don't make editing mistakes but if you find errors or artifacts introduced by the editing of course I'll fix free of charge. I'll also do minor adjustments on photo touchup packages for up to 3 photos without charging. Thereafter, my fee is $15-$50 per photo based on what you'd like me to attempt, bearing in mind that not all changes are possible.      

No. Sorry.  All my photo packages include editing. You can, however, purchase RAW copies for $300 or Jpg copies of all the photos for $200 as an add-on fee to your package. 

My favorite photo locations are all along our north shore. But I do shoot all over our island.

Not without a second shooter, a licensed drone flyer. Add-on fees start at $500 

 This FAQ answers how I work, what you’ll receive, etc so this is my agreement with you. If you agree with this, and you want to book me, just let me know. That’s it. Mahalo.
