Mini-FAQs
Are Mini-Sessions the same as regular sessions?
Not exactly. Mini-sessions are only about 30 minutes long and you'll receive up to 15 images from your session, whereas a regular session can last up to 2 hours and your images you receive can be as high as 75+ images!
What do I get with a Mini-Session?
You'll receive up to 15 beautifully polished high-resolution images from your mini-session ready to be downloaded in a private online gallery.
What if I decide to get more photos?
For my Holiday Mini-Sessions, the limit is 15 images. However, if you want in on that full session awesomeness, you can always schedule a regular Individual Session for $300, a Family Session or Engagement Session for $350. You can read more in-depth of what you get by clicking here.
Is the quality of my images good for holiday cards?
Absolutely! All your images that will be available to you will be set for 300 DPI resolution, which basically means that you can make them just about any size you'd like (except a wall mural...you're going to need a bigger photo. Haha.) For holiday cards, this would work just beautifully!
Do you also offer prints? If so, where do you get them printed?
1000% YES! I offer prints to all my clients. You can order just about any size ranging from a 4" x 6" matte print to a 20" x 30" matte print. Prices vary between sizes, and sold at additional cost. I have a professional photo lab in La Cañada Flintridge, Ca where I get my photo prints done. If it's not there, I usually get my photos prints done through an professional online photo lab that does wonders for my clients' prints.
Could you do holiday cards for me?
Unfortunately, no. I'm great with a camera, but creating holiday cards isn't quite my realm of genius. But if you shoot me an email at katie.chavarin@gmail.com, I can give you a few of my favorite places (online and in-store locations) that you can get your holiday cards ordered.
What forms of payment do you accept?
I use a company called Square for all my business transactions.
Do I have to pay you in person? Or can I pay online?
Online! The way it works is when you're ready to book, a non-refundable 50% retainer fee is required to lock in your Holiday Mini-Session date. You'll receive a Portrait Session Agreement to read and sign (this is basically a contract that allows me to do my job as you expect). Then, the remaining balance is due on or before the date of your session.
How long will it take to see and receive my photos after my session?
Typically, because the mini-holiday sessions are short there isn't a ton of editing needed. This is great news for you! You should be able to view and download your images straight from a beautifully curated private online gallery in 5-7 business days! Phew, that's fast!
Can I share my photos online and with my friends and family?
Of course you can! I always encourage you to share with your loved ones. The cool thing about the private online gallery, is that you'll be provided with a guest password that anyone who you give that password to can access your gallery even if they're across the world from you. Cool, right??
If I share my photos on social media (such as Facebook and Instagram), do I have to tag you?
You don't have to, but if you want to you can tag me on Instagram or Facebook, I'm @KatieChavarinPhotography. Like I said, you don't have to, but it would be so awesome and sweet of you! Let's just say I'll be doing my two-step happy dance if you did!
