Helpful Information
Here at Shutter Babes, we’re an open book. If you have a question for us, you’re likely to find a quick answer in the FAQ section below. If there’s something that’s not addressed, get in touch. No question is too obscure!
Can I create a custom package?
We're definitely open to a conversation about customizing a special package for you.
Fill out our Contact Form and we will reach out and see what's possible!
Do you provide props or accessories?
Depends on the package or theme. Normally, yes, we do supplement a shoot with goodies from our treasure chest. We have various lingerie options, floral arrangements, blankets, etc which a client can use. For in-home shoots, we normally arrive about 30min early to help the client set up their space. However, with off-site shoots we are sometimes limited by the props and accessories the space can accommodate (ever tried to set up a large mirror at the Waterwall Park...?)
How should I prepare my home for a photoshoot?
If possible, we will do a walk-thru of your home at least a week before the photoshoot to help you determine which areas/rooms will be utilized during the shoot. Do NOT stress yourself out with cleaning for the walk-thru - we don't judge!
However, for the day of the photoshoot, we DO ask that you have those selected spaces as cleaned as possible. We aren't inspectors - if that means dirty laundry gets thrown into a closet - awesome blossom. Focus on clean windows/mirrors and the removal of pet hair. Especially pet hair. It's easy to move an errant shoe, but it's a lot harder to have to lint roller your lingerie every time you lay on the bed/couch/floor.
Do you have referrals for hair and makeup?
Yes! We have people we can recommend in different parts of Houston.
Can we pick our photographer?
You can request a particular photographer, but we operate as a partnership meaning that we each have a hand in your photoshoot whether that's the camera work, lighting, and/or editing. Chances are if you've liked the photos on our social media or website, then you'll like what either of us produces ;)
Our turnaround time is approximately 3 weeks, but we will let you know ahead of time if we expect it to be longer.
