FAQ

What do we need to do to book?

Reach out to me! We will talk locations and find out your preferred date and session time. We can get you scheduled right away! Your session is secured with a signed contract and a paid invoice (50% non-refundable retainer).

What forms of payment do you accept?

I accept credit/debit cards, zelle and paypal. Venmo, cash app or other third parties services will not be accepted.

What time are sessions held?

My goal is to book your session during the absolute BEST lighting which is one hour before sunset. If the time needs to be tweaked, its absolutely doable. However, I want the most magical photos for you to have for a lifetime so I strive to chase that sunset!

Where are sessions held?

I am willing to go just about anywhere (within reason) for the perfect session. However, I have several local locations that I share with my clients for them to pick the one that matches their vision best.

What do we wear?!

I always suggest that my clients wear solid colors. Burgundy, mustard, gray, blush and tan match perfectly with my style and help you and your family not clash with each other. Some of the littles can pull off a floral print or suspenders. Hats, shalls, and flowy dresses are always welcome and add movement to your photos! Please avoid green, white, plaid, and funky designs. This ensures timeless, clean and classic images. If you need style prep, lets chat! I will happily look over outfits with you.

Do you retouch photos?

Each and every image is hand edited by me. This includes skin retouching, photo cleanup (street signs, outlets on the wall, stains, bugs, grass clippings, etc) and my own personal editing style applied. Additional edits like body modifications may be accommodated but are subject to a charge.

How do we get our photos?

I will send an email to you which will include a private online link that provides your entire gallery. All images will be watermarked and you will choose your favorite 20 images included in your package to have the watermark removed and in your possession for personal use. You will also be able to purchase any additional images or the full gallery!

When can i expect to receive my photos after our session together?

My turnaround time is usually 1-2 weeks for general sessions and 6-8 weeks for weddings and events.

Do you do newborns?

I do not do posed newborns in a studio with buckets, props and wraps. However, I DO do lifestyle newborn sessions in your home with baby snuggled close at the most convenient time for you.

Is a family session limited in persons?

Your immediate nuclear family is all included in the family package. Any additional family members are subject to an additional charge.

Can we purchase the raw/unedited images?

Raw and unedited images are never sold and will be kept in the photographers possession.

Do you offer prints?

Ordering prints are not offered by Andrea Saavedra Photography at this time.

Do you shoot other events besides weddings?

I absolutely shoot other events such as baby showers, parties, and ceremonies. Fill out the contact form and inquire today!

Do you have backup gear and storage?

I take extra measures to make sure each and every session is flawless. This includes backup cameras and backup storage. The safety of your images are always top priority!
