FAQ

Location

Pick a place that you love. A place where you have created sweet memories. Where did you and your fiance first meet? Do you have a favorite family park? Do you enjoy the outdoors and greenery, or do you prefer alleyways with fun doors and city life? I truly believe we live in one of the best locations in the United States. There are so many gorgeous places to choose from! Tree Tops Park, Robbin’s Lodge, Long Key Nature Center, Dania Beach (or any beach for that matter), Downtown Fort Lauderdale, Wynwood, and Coral Gables are all great places to start. 

Attire

I have props I use on shoots if that’s your thing. You can even bring your own props if you desire. For example, balloons, your child's favorite toy or book, a fun sign from your home, or even a smash cake. There are so many options. You can also coordinate simple, or more creative outfits for your family members to wear. The sky is the limit and there are no rules. Doesn’t that sound fun? This is your opportunity to make it you!

Pictures

In the editing process, I omit any and all images, test shots, and duplicates that are unflattering and not focused properly. As a firm rule, I don’t give out anything that doesn’t meet my creative standard. After that cut, you get the rest – edited and ready to print.

Weddings

I do have experience shooting weddings, and would love to capture your best day ever! For more information, head over to the contact page and send me an email. I will get back to you at my earliest convenience. Happy Planning!

Deposit

For every photo session, there is a non-refundable $50 deposit required to secure the date. The remainder of the session fee is due at the time of the shoot. The dates available are on a first come, first served basis. If there is a desired date between two families, the first deposit received gets the date. 

In the event of a wedding, a non-refundable deposit is required. The amount will be around 1/3 of the total package price we agree on in our contract.

Rescheduling

There may be times where the weather on the day of the shoot does not permit us to take photos. When that occurs, we will reschedule for a different time in the near future. 

Photo Sharing

Please feel free to share your images on all social media platforms! All I ask is that you refrain from further editing of the photos (filters, additional photoshop tweaks, etc.). Please share them as is. A “tag” or “mention” is not required, but definitely appreciated! I get 80% of my business through word of mouth and your support means the world! My Instagram handle is @gabriellasophiaphotos, and my website is www.gabriella-sophia.com. Thank you so much!
