After discussing the date and time with us for your photoshoot, you can select the package you wish to order and make the down payment directly at https://www.focusphotography.ru/packages/ You are not required to have a PayPal account for making the payment. An advance session fee is required to hold the date for photoshoot.
It is always advised to wear the clothes which make you feel good and comfortable. Usually, contrasting outfits, being eye-catching, are preferred over all matching clothes, but all white, or white + jeans still make classy combination. To get a better idea for your outfit.
We recommend people who sweat a lot to wear an undershirt and materials like cotton which are comfortable and allow easier exchange of air with skin. Color shirts such as black, or navy blue can also be worn as sweat is less visible on darker cloths.
Depending on your hotel of stay, we can recommend some really good places for you on the island. However, it is often better to discuss it together to find the best place for you.
For best results, afternoon is a good time for photo session if we’re doing it in the north or western part of the island. For the east and south, morning time is advised. However, photoshoots in places such as parks, which have a lot of shade can be done in either morning, or the afternoon. We avoid photoshoots in the midday for best results.
A week after the photo session, we will send you an email with link which will take you to a private online gallery. This gallery can only be opened by you. Using the link, you will be able to viewed your photos and as optional you van make your own selection if you wish so.
To produce the best results, we process your photos to optimize the brightness, contrast, and color balance. After some basic and advanced retouching (e.g., skin smoothening), we deliver your photos within a maximum duration of two months.
The core equipment we use for photography are a Nikon Z6, Z6II, Z5 Nikon D750 and Nikon D850, with Nikkor 50mm f/1.4, 50mm f/1.8 lens, Nikkor 24-70mm f2.8, Nikkor 20mm 1.8, Nikkor 24-50mm, Simga 14mm – 35mm f/1.4, Tokina 17mm f/4.0 lens, and Nikkor 85mm f/1.8 lens. Reflectors and strobe lights along with other enhancements are also used.
Unfortunately not. Not even if you ask really, really nicely… We know that it can take dozens of snaps to get exactly that perfect version of a shot, and since our photographers shoot in RAW format this would mean editing hundreds of extra not-perfect shots rather than focusing on delivering you the best of the bunch. This leads into our other, even more important, reason: we have our online gallery its for viewing and you can make your own selection of the best photos.
All this being said… if you thought there were shots you remember being taken that didn’t make it into your set, let us know and we can reach out to your photographer and find out what’s possible. (Please note: under no circumstance are we able to provide images in raw format.)
If you need to cancel for any reason, please email or call us and we will refund 50% of your booking fee as long as you provide us no less than 30 days’ notice prior to your scheduled shoot date.
