Frequently Asked Questions

 

Where are you located?

I’m currently in Bayside, Queens but service all of the NYC area. 

How can we get in touch with you?

The best way to reach me is by email (joannerdguez@gmail.com) or submitting a contact form. Please expect a response within 48 hours.

Where will the photo session take place?

The session can take place in your home, at a local park, playground, garden, museum… If there’s a place you and your family love or reflects in some way your interests and lifestyle, just let me know. I can also suggest locations that will work with the kind of images we are going for.

In the case of newborns, it is best to photograph them in their home. I am also available for in-hospital sessions during baby’s first 48 hours.

What should I (we) wear?

Wear whatever you feel comfortable and happy in. I can share a few ideas or inspiraton with you from Pinterest but, in general, it's best is to avoid bold patterns, large logos and characters. Less is more; we want the focus to be on you, your family, child or partner.

What is lifestyle photography?

Lifestyle photography is just that: photographs that represent what your life is like without the stiff posing, perfect smiles and coordinated outfits.  Think a cozy Sunday afternoon plus a new friend who happens to have a camera attached to her hand, someone who wants to tell a visual story of your family and your home.

Do you photograph events?

I am available for most small, intimate events. Be it a child's birthday, a couple's anniversary, baby shower or any other celebration, please contact me to discuss details. Samples of recent events can be viewed here.

When can I expect my images?

Photos will be uploaded to an online gallery 1-2 weeks after the session. 

Do you offer prints and albums?

Yes, I do! You will receive a temporary online gallery with your images from which you can order professional prints.
