FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Thinking about booking a photo session with Jenn Lewis Photography? Let me give you an idea of how it all works, and what to do to best prepare for your session! I'll answer the most frequently asked questions too!
What to expect for...
Teens/Seniors:
PARENTS: I love working with high school seniors to create what they envision for their senior session! This is such a fun time… and likely the last time they'll have professional photos done before their wedding! So we definitely want to capture these moments for them… their personality, individuality, and their dreams for their future. We'll have a pre-shoot consultation to chat about what you and your senior want from their session. We'll discuss location ideas, what they can wear and bring along… I love personalizing these sessions for them, so I want to get to know your kid!
SENIORS: I'd love it if you'd text me photos of the outfits you're bringing a day or two before the shoot! On the day of your session, we'll start by pampering you with professional hair and makeup! Tell me ahead of time how you'd like your makeup and what you'd love to have done with your hair. After you're photo ready, we'll head out for the shoot. We typically begin at the studio, then hit up 2 locations for a senior experience session. Plan to shoot in 4-5 outfits. Bring more and we'll figure out what works best for your locations. Bring accessories… hats, jewelry, sunglasses, scarves, jackets… whatever you love! I have a changing tent for on-location changing. If you follow me on insta, you've probably seen photos of it. :) I usually have an assistant with me for these shoots, and I'll bring some lighting along too. I can't wait to give you your "model for a day" experience!
GUYS: Sometimes you guys aren't as excited as the girls for these shoots, but you always end up having fun! Tell me what you're into and we'll shoot it… sports? Your car? Let's make it happen!
After the session:
In the days after your session, while you're waiting for me to prepare your images for your ordering session, I'd love for you to look around your home to get an idea of the spaces you'd like to fill on your walls. Taking measurements is a bonus, and you're also welcome (and encouraged!) to email or text me photos of the spaces you'd like to fill with your custom art from your photo session. About 2 weeks after your photo session when I have your images ready to view, I'll contact you to schedule your ordering session (if we didn't do that at booking!). You'll come to my studio at the Broyhill building in Clemmons. I'll guide you through the ordering process and help you decide what products and sizes will work best to fill the space on your walls. I have samples here of various products that I offer through my professional lab, and if there's something particular you're looking for, don't hesitate to ask, as my lab most likely offers it. Bring a list of friends and family you'd like to gift some prints to also… having all these things done ahead of time helps your ordering session to go smoothly and more quickly! Plan for approximately 1 1/2 hours for your ordering session.
What's in your gear bag (& what kind of bag is it?):
I *love* my ThinkTank camera bag! It carries all of my everyday gear. So... what's in my bag? I shoot with a Canon R5 and a Canon R6. I have narrowed my lens collection down to 4... Canon RF70-200mm f/2.8, Canon RF 50mm f/1.8, Canon RF 100mm 2.8L, and Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 (my current favorite!). Lighting, all from gomolight.com: a couple of Godox AD600Bs, a Godox AD400, a Godox AD300, a couple of Godox AD200s, a couple of Godox AD100s, and 2 Godox LC500 LED Light Sticks, Golden Eagle LED 2000, Golden Eagle S80 LED, Golden Eagle V100 panel, and lots and lots of light modifiers and accessories that I use in studio and on location. No one ever said photography was an inexpensive business!
