The FAQ

Do you Travel?

I will drive anywhere within 45 minutes from me free of charge. I will travel up to an hour and a half from me with a $50 fee. For events such as weddings or engagements that require more travel time, contact me directly.

How many photos do we get?

I guarantee 35 pictures with every experience except family shoots and the standard individual package, but I often include more. I have sent up to 65 photos free of extra charge.

How do we get our photos?

When your gallery is ready, I will send an email and a text with the link to your photos. I send the photos as they are being edited, so only a few will be included in the initial gallery, but I will continuously add photos until they have all been included.

Whats your turn around time?

I typically send out a full gallery within 2 weeks, but I can get busy with school, travel, etc., so I guarantee within 3 weeks.

How do we book you?

You can fill out the contact form on my website and inquire there, or you can DM me on Instagram @sophieshanleyphotography

Can you help us with planning?

Of course! I love having a flow of communication with my clients prior to the shoot to determine just what you are looking for in your photos, so don't be afraid to reach out!

What should we do for an engagement session?

For an engagement, message me and explain your plan for the actual engagement, and I will work with you to figure out details to make sure I can capture your special moment. You can choose to do a mini shoot after the engagement for 10-15 minutes or book a full couples session for 90 minutes.

What should we wear?

First and foremost, wear what makes you happy! I recommend colorful fabrics and interesting textures. For senior sessions, many clients bring a white dress, a colorful dress, and one additional outfit. It is completely up to you! I will also work with you to determine the best outfit for each spot at the chosen location.

Are flower bouquets included with individual sessions?

I offer the option to include a hand made bouquet to the shoot for an additional $30, or you can bring your own!
