I agree to terms & conditions provided by the company. By providing my phone number, I agree to receive text messages from the business.
A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to hold your date and time! I'm happy to discuss photoshoot ideas, but without the deposit, your spot can be taken.Payment must be paid in full 24 hours before the service date if booked for off-site events.
We offer several convenient payment options for our clients. You can pay via Zelle, Apple Pay, or we can provide you with a custom invoice for other payment methods. We aim to make the process as seamless as possible for you.
Yes, I offer printing services! Email us at [email protected] for your quote.
Yes, all RAW images will be sent in order to select your professional edits. Raw images are unedited or retouched, and will be sent with a watermark. Think of it as an unfinished masterpiece. I do offer images without watermarks for an additional fee.
It's definitely an outfit you feel comfortable and confident in! I would avoid wearing strong patterns and logos, as they will be distracting in the photos. Also, avoid wearing a generic outfit (like a basic shirt and jeans). Wear what flatters you, and what makes you feel your best! Get creative! Experiment with complementary colors, fabrics, and textures. If it's a clothing item you need to constantly adjust, I would steer away from wearing it. If you need guidance with a specific look, I recommend Pinterest for some beautiful unique outfit ideas, or you can shoot me a message and I'll be glad to help.
No worries! It is my job as your photographer to direct you during your shoot. I will help you find your best angle and demonstrate the pose myself so you can get a visual understanding. If you need any additional reassurance, Pinterest will definitely be your best friend
I strongly recommend booking at least 2 weeks in advance. This way, we have many days to plan and make sure your shoot goes perfectly!
Unless the reason for rescheduling is due to EXTREMELY bad weather on the day of your photoshoot, an additional fee of $40 will be charged for rescheduling within 14 days of the service. If you reschedule because of the EXTREMELY weather exemption and reschedule a second time, the fee will then apply. You can only reschedule within 36 hours from the original date to avoid losing your deposit. Any time after 36 hour period, another deposit will be required. If you choose to cancel, please be aware that your deposit is non-refundable.
Yes, I charge travel fees for event photography, and outdoor photoshoots if the distance exceeds the boundaries of Fort Lauderdale such as Miami, West Palm Beach, Boca, etc.
If there are any fees associated with the location, the client is responsible to cover them.
The studio fee will cover the studio rental cost and is usually already included in the package you select. Sometimes I change locations depending on the theme, and props that are needed, which you will always be informed of before hand during the consultation process.
Yes, the client is responsible for any props, such as balloons, cakes, champagne, wine, and any clothing wear that goes on the client. Typically, props already in the studio, such as throne chairs, bikes, bags, purses, couches, backdrops, tubs, etc., are already included in your space rental.
Downgrading or upgrading to a different package is ONLY acceptable 48 hours before your shoot.
Once you select the appropriate package or session, I will reach out to you within a few hours. I will send you a fun questionnaire to fill out your information and the best time to schedule your consultation call. During the call, we will confirm the time, location, what you’re wearing, and all the other fun details!
Your photos will be uploaded to a beautiful online gallery on Dropbox! You will be able to access and download the gallery to your computer or phone. You can also easily share it with your family and friends!
It can take up to 14 days, but I like to aim for 7-10 days after unedited/raw photos are sent! You’re more than welcome to ask for updates after the 7th day.
I offer express delivery services. Please contact me if you are interested in the choice of expressed images sent within 24-48 hours. You can reach me at (786) 321-3921
I do both color grade and professional high-end skin retouching on images. Event photography only includes soft/basic skin retouching.
Extra edits aside from what comes included in the package is $20 per image.
Of course! Once the shoot is complete, I will upload the proofs through an online proofing gallery where you will be able to choose your favorites. This does not include Events and Surprise Engagement sessions. I will be carefully selecting the best images for these precious documented moments.
While you will have access to your images via private link, Shamar B. Photography retains the copyright for your photos. We update our portfolio often and may use your photographs for advertising purposes. However, if you’re uncomfortable with your images being used in our marketing efforts, we can discuss other options.
Absolutely. I do understand that things happen; however, time is extremely valuable to both of us. I offer a 15-minute grace period. If you are late more than 15 minutes, there is a $50 late fee. If you are more than 30 minutes late, your shoot may be canceled by the photographer, and you will need to reschedule. Please be on time.
