FAQ

Do you shoot destination weddings?

(01)

I live and work in the beautiful island country of Samoa, but am currently on hold for all WORK related travel beyond these shores. Once this opens back up, you'll be the first to know!

How long do I need to wait before I receive my edited photos?

(02)

As of Feb 2024, all photoshoots will be delivered within a 6-8 week timeframe and if a wedding, a 8-12 week timeframe.

How will I receive my edited photos?

(03)

Your photos will be professionally edited and sent to you in a private online gallery through PIXIE SET. You will receive your gallery in both HIGH RES and a lower res suitable for SOCIAL MEDIA posts.

How long have you worked in this industry?

(04)

I've worked in the photography business for over 10 years.
Everyday just gets better!

How do we decide on photoshoot location?

(05)

I make a few recommendations for location, but ultimately the choice is yours.
Any location outside Apia will hold an additional travel fee.

Will there be a second shooter?

(06)

I usually shoot solo but will likely have a photographer shoot alongside me for weddings.

Can I extend the session on the day?

(07)

If my time permits, you certainly can. An additional fee will be charged for all time extensions.

What wardrobe colour would you recommend for clients?

(08)

Honestly, this will sound very plain, but WHITE is my go-to. The images always turn out so crisp and fresh. You can't go wrong with a white wardrobe against our beautiful Samoan landscapes.
If I had to choose any other colour, I'd recommend sticking with solid, block colours. Patterns on clothing can sometimes appear messy in photographs.

What kind of gear do you use?

(09)

I work with a CANON 5D Mark IV and a CANON 6D Mark II. My lenses are constantly been upgraded and changed to suit my preferences, however, a popular lens in my hand is a SIGMA 50mm ART LENS. Absolutely perfect for dreamy portraits!

Can I order prints through MEMOIRS?

(10)

I currently do not offer any prints, however, all your images will be edited by me and set to a high resolution so you can download and print them with ease from anywhere in the world!
