FAQ - THE URBAN SPARROW

Questions and answers

01

What is your shooting style?

I'm a lifestyle/documentary photographer. I capture candid moments & details that all come together to create a photo story. The photos from the day will be natural and not posey. It's my aim to make you feel relaxed in front of the camera and I've been told I do this very well! At times, you will receive direction or cues from me for group/portrait shots. But it will feel more like we are all just hanging out, laughing, sharing funny stories and I'll be there capturing whatever naturally happens.

02

Where are you based?

I live in the beautiful Macedon Ranges, just North of Melbourne. I do love to travel and explore different parts of our amazing planet! So please let me know, where you plan to have some snaps taken and I can let you know if about costs etc.

03

How long until we receive our images?

For weddings, you will receive your photos within 8 weeks. For 1-2 hour portrait/family shoots, I allow 3 weeks. All other shoots will depend on shooting time and requirements.

04

Do we receive the high-resolution printable files?

YES! With all private shoots, I give you all the finished high-resolution jpeg files*.

At an additional cost, you can order printed products via my online shop that will be available in your private gallery.

*If it is Pre-School photography that I'm doing at your child's centre, you'll be notified beforehand as to how the images will be available for purchase.

05

Is it the same price if there are less photos?

The price is the same if you receive 200 photos or 300 photos. It's all about quality, not quantity baby!

What should we wear?

06

It's really important that you feel comfortable and at ease. If that means turning up in your pyjamas, then I'd take my hat off to you! Remember, these photos are for you to look back on remember times as they were! The photos are about YOU. And yes, there are colours & patterns that can sometimes clash, so if anything, try to avoid heavy patterns or any bold logos.

Working with Bec to capture our little family was an absolute pleasure. She was flexible and accomodating to what we wanted while guiding us to get the best shots we could in beautiful Gisborne. In particular she captured our little girl Addison beautifully and exactly as she is, little quirks and all. We’ll cherish these photos forever.
