What To Expect
Before Your Session
Once you have decided to book your session with Raindance Photography, you can expect a fully customized experience, from the beginning to the end! Before your session happens, we have processes in place to ensure that you are receiving the experience you want and the products you expect out of your portrait session.
Upon booking, you will be asked for your package preference. You will then be sent the appropriate booking contract and styling questionnaire to get the booking ball rolling! The contract outlines all terms and conditions and is designed to help you understand exactly what your package includes before committing to the transaction. Your styling questionnaire will gather information to help your photographer get a better idea about your vision, purpose, wants, and needs for your session. Your location will be determined based on your questionnaire responses.
Once booking forms and fees have been received, you will be sent your preparation package to help your session go as smoothly as possible. You will be given a session date for your portraits.
A day or two prior to your session, you will receive a courtesy reminder email from your photographer to ensure that everyone is healthy to proceed with the session as scheduled.
During Your Session
The day of your session will be laid back and fun! You can expect your session to last anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour (for full sessions) to 2-3 hours (for newborn sessions). At the end of your session, your photographer will discuss your Ordering Gallery with you (if applicable), to ensure you are prepared.
After Your Session
After we’re finishing shooting, if you’ve given us permission to use images from your session in our portfolio, then a fun “sneak peek” will be shared on our Instagram and Facebook accounts within 1-3 days of your session.
About 2-3 weeks after your session, your photographer will contact you to arrange a convenient time for you to view your Online Ordering Gallery and make selections, if applicable. Online galleries are activated for a 24-hour time period before they expire, so you will work together with your photographer to ensure that you receive your gallery at the best possible time for you and any other decision makers. If your package was all-inclusive (meaning it comes with your entire gallery of digital files without you needing to choose), then work will begin immediately on full retouching, no need to worry about arranging an online ordering gallery.
Requests for additional online ordering galleries after the initial one expires without an order being placed will incur a fee. Payment for all additional digital files, collections, or products purchased during your ordering process is due in full before orders are processed and placed with the lab. For your convenience, we accept cash, email money transfer (EMT), PayPal, and all major credit cards via Square.
I take great pride in being a high quality, boutique photography service, and in being able to offer you an exceptional level of hands-on service that is second to none in the Callander/North Bay Area. Satisfaction is always guaranteed!
