What should I wear?
When preparing for your photo session, choose outfits that make you feel comfortable and confident, as this always translates well on camera. Neutral color palettes are a great choice for outdoor and nature-based photography sessions, as they complement natural surroundings without distracting from you. If you’re unsure what to wear, feel free to reach out! I’m happy to provide outfit recommendations based on your session type, location, and photography style.
How and when will I get my photos?
All final images are delivered through a private online photo gallery, allowing you to easily view, download, and share your high-resolution photos. Photo delivery timelines vary by package, but most galleries are delivered within 2–3 weeks, depending on the type of session and coverage selected.
How do I book?
To officially book your photography session, a signed photography contract and a 40% deposit are required to secure your preferred date and time. The remaining balance is due on the day of the session, ensuring a smooth and confirmed booking process.
Do you give out the unedited photos?
RAW files and unedited JPEG images are not included in any photography packages. Professional photo editing and retouching are an essential part of my creative process, and all delivered images are carefully edited to reflect my signature style. I believe in providing clients with a fully finished, high-quality product rather than unfinished files.
What photos will I receive?
Your final photo gallery will feature a curated selection of the best images from your photography session. The number of photos delivered varies by package, and each gallery is thoughtfully edited to include only unique, high-quality images, avoiding duplicate shots.
Should I tag you on social media?
Tagging creators on social media helps support their work and allows it to reach a wider audience. If you share any images from our photography session on social media, I always appreciate a direct tag to my Instagram, Facebook, or website so others can easily view my photography portfolio and get in touch. You can find me across all platforms at @kelseynevellphoto.
Why do you have a different company for weddings?
I’ve photographed countless weddings, and my vision for wedding photography has evolved into something bigger, bolder, and way more fun. I teamed up with two like-minded creatives to build Tangerine Weddings, a photo + video team focused on authentic storytelling, great energy, and an elevated wedding experience. You’ll still get my signature editing style, just backed by a full creative crew.
