Lifestyle (family)

A time to never forget

A lifestyle session is a session for an individual or a family (up to 4 people) to do outdoors anywhere in your home or in the Montreal area. Shoots outside of Montreal are also possible for a small traveling fee. These sessions are loads of fun as they allow you to get photographed as you are. I don’t pose. I capture. Don’t worry though. I do help you by coaching you along the way and making sure that you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Kids absolutely love these sessions too as they get to play, run around and get to be kids. That way, you remember them as they truly were.

F.A.Q

How long is a session typically?

A session usually lasts an hour although it does happen that it will be longer. Depends of how much fun we are having! hehe

How many images do we get back?

That’s an impossible question to answer as everyone’s shoot is different. However, you get them “all the best ones”. That could mean anywhere from 75 to 250. There’s no real number.

Can we be more than four (4) people?

Yes! Each extra person is 25$. Once the shoot has been retouched, the photos will be placed in an online gallery so that every family member will be able to have access to the photos!

How can I reserve?

Once you are interested in reserving a date with me (yay!), I can send over a contract for you to sign and 100$ is required to save the date in my calendar. After that, you can rest assured that that date will be yours… and only yours.

Can we shoot on a weekend?

Unfortunately, because of my weddings, weekends are very hard to come by in the summer time. To be able to get one, be sure to book early in April, May or October to guarantee a date.

Can we shoot indoors?

Of course! But only if you are interested in getting photos that a more lifestyle. Although it’s clear from my work that I do not shoot traditional portraits, indoor locations make those utterly impossible even if we tried. That’s because light is usually pretty limited in people’s homes and I prefer not to bring artificial lighting on family sessions. You need to be ready to move around the house to whenever light is available. Sometimes, that means the living room, sometimes the kitchen, sometimes the bedroom. For this reason, home/location sessions have to be more “free” or “documentary” than outdoor ones.

See below for some exemples.

What happens if it rains on our booked date?

We have two options. We reschedule or WE SHOOT IN THE RAIN. That’s the beauty of lifestyle sessions. Since we don;’t have a real “timeline”, we can pretty much do whatever we want 🙂 Note however that no refunds of the retainer fee are possible. I do not charge for reschedules due to last-minute rain storms however.
