I’ve been a wedding photographer since 2013, but I’ll never forget how hiring a professional can feel confusing and new! I’m here to help, always. Here’s some most common questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out for anything that’s not answered below!

  • Booking & Availability

    How far in advance should I book my session?
    To ensure availability, I recommend booking your session at least 4–6 months in advance, particularly during busy seasons such as spring and autumn.

    How do I reserve my date?
    You can get in touch through the contact form on my website or by email. Once we’ve confirmed your session details, I’ll send over your contract and a retainer invoice to officially secure your date.

    Do you require a deposit?
    Yes. A 30% non-refundable retainer is required at the time of booking. The remaining balance is due prior to your session.

  • Your Session

    Where do sessions take place?
    Sessions can be held at your home or at an outdoor location that complements your vision. A private studio can be rented if required. I’m always happy to help you choose the perfect spot.

    How long does a session last?
    Most portrait sessions last between one to two hours. Boudoir sessions between two to four hours. Weddings and events vary depending on your chosen coverage.

    What should I wear?
    After booking, we’ll discuss outfits based on your vision and intention, but also color palettes, and inspiration to help you feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera.

  • Editing & Delivery

    When will I receive my photos?
    Portrait galleries are typically delivered within 3-6 weeks. Weddings and larger events may take up to 8–12 weeks, depending on the season.

    How will my images be delivered?
    Your final images will be sent to you via private online gallery, where you can easily view, download, and share your images and order prints.

    Do you retouch my photos?
    Yes, all final images are professionally edited for color, light, and tone. Additional retouching can be provided upon request and an extra fee depending on the extent of the editing.

  • Pricing & Payments

    Where can I find your pricing?
    My pricing guide is available on the website, or I can provide a personalized quote based on your session type and needs.

    Do you offer payment plans?
    Yes, flexible payment options are available upon request. Please don’t hesitate to ask.

    Are deposits always required?
    Yes! Your session will not be confirmed if a deposing isn’t paid.

  • Rescheduling & Cancellations

    What happens if it rains or I need to reschedule?
    If weather or unforeseen circumstances arise, you’ve got an option to reschedule your session at an additional cost.

    What if I need to cancel?
    If you need to cancel, your retainer is non-refundable but may be applied toward a future session within four months, depending on circumstances.

  • Prints & Albums

    Do you offer prints or albums?
    Yes. I offer a curated selection of fine art prints, canvases, and custom-designed albums. These can be ordered directly through your gallery or made by me at an additional cost.

    Can I print my photos myself?
    Absolutely. All packages include a print release for personal use, though I always recommend professional labs for the best quality and color accuracy.

  • Additional Questions

    Can I include family members or pets in my session?
    Of course. Loved ones (and furry friends) are always welcome! Just let me know in advance so I can plan accordingly.

    Do you travel for sessions or weddings?
    Yes, I’m available for travel both locally (Edinburgh and Friuli-Venezia Giulia) and internationally. Travel fees may apply depending on the location.

    Can I share my images on social media?
    Yes, please do! I love seeing clients share their photos. If you’d like, you can tag @RominaKeyPhoto when posting.
