My Services

Welcome to the Services page! Here, you’ll find a step-by-step breakdown of what to expect during your photography session. You can explore the available packages, customize your experience with add-ons, and choose the option that best fits your vision. Take your time looking around, and if you have any questions, be sure to check out the FAQ or disclaimers section. If you still need assistance, feel free to reach out I’m happy to help.

Consultation

When you book a consultation, we’ll take the time to understand your vision and creative goals. We’ll discuss your ideas in detail, including location options, wardrobe styling, available add-ons, and which package best fits your needs. This collaborative conversation ensures your session is thoughtfully planned and tailored to bring your vision to life.

Session

Before and during your session, we’ll make sure you’re fully prepared and comfortable so we can make the most of our time together. The focus is on maximizing efficiency while maintaining a relaxed atmosphere—guiding posing, coordinating wardrobe and location changes, and keeping the workflow seamless. This approach allows us to capture a variety of looks, giving you plenty of options to choose from during the photo selection process after your session.

Culling and Editing

After your session, all images are carefully reviewed and culled to remove duplicates, out-of-focus shots, motion blur, and any images that don’t meet quality standards. Once culling is complete, you’ll receive a private online gallery where you can select your favorite images for editing. After you’ve made your selections and notified me, please allow 7–14 days for the final edits to be completed. If you’re on a tighter timeline, expedited editing is available as an add-on when selecting your package.

Delivery

Once your images are fully edited, you’ll receive a private gallery link where your final photos will be available for download. You’re welcome to share and tag your images on social media @mediabydawud. I’d love to see how you use them. As a thank-you for referrals, if someone you refer books a session, you’ll receive 25% off your next photoshoot.
