Common Questions and Important Information 

How do I book a photo session?

To book a session, please text me via social networks or fill out the contact form on my website.

Tell me about your preferred date, time and location. And I will get back to you as soon as possible! It’s recommended to book at least 1-2 months in advance to ensure availability.

I require a non-refundable deposit $100 to book your day, preferably via Zelle or Venmo. The rest of the payment should be done after the photoshoot, the same day.

How long does a session last?

Session typically lasts between 1-2 hours, depending on the photoshoot package, which is usually enough to capture beautiful photos. But I’m not strict about time, so you can relax and enjoy the experience without feeling pressured. My priority is to capture the best photos, and I will take the time needed to make sure we get the shots you love. 

What is your cancellation or rescheduling policy?

I require a non-refundable deposit $100 to secure your booking and cover initial costs. This helps protect against last-minute cancellations and ensures commitment.

Rescheduling is possible only once at no extra charge, further rescheduling will require a new deposit.

Do you require a travel fee?

Yes, a travel fee is required for locations 20 miles outside of San Jose, including San Francisco and ocean locations, to cover transportation costs and time.

Can we shoot in two locations?

Yes, we can shoot in two locations! There will be additional $50 fee for the second location. The second location should be no more than 10 minutes away. This option is available only with the Gold package. Expect to get a variety of photos, as we’ll have more time and opportunities to capture different settings!

How do I prepare for my photoshoot? (locations, outfits etc.)

I’ll help you with planning the photoshoot. Right after booking, I’ll send you my “Photoshoot planning guide” that includes full guidance on outfits, makeup, hairstyle and all information you need to feel prepared and confident for the session.

I do not provide outfits, but I pay a lot of attention to them and recommend where to get them and how to choose the best options. I provide props only for seasonal shoots, where themed props are included.

I suggest my favorite locations for the shoot, but I’m also happy to travel to your preferred location.

*Consultation on outfits and locations only after making a deposit. 

Will you help with posing?

Yes, you will get full assistance in posing! With my experience as a published model, I’m skilled at guiding clients into natural and flattering poses. I’ll offer direction and support throughout the session to help you feel comfortable and look your best in every shot. 

I primarily focus on staged photography to create polished and structured images, but I also include lifestyle photos to capture natural and candid moments. This combination ensures a well-rounded and dynamic collection of images.

When will I receive my photos?

You can expect to receive your photos within 2-3 weeks after the photoshoot depending on your chosen package. I’ll deliver them through an online gallery where you can view and select specific photos for editing. You can also download the whole gallery or if it’s not included in your package you can purchase it for $50. If you want additional edited photos, you can add them for $5 per image.

I’ll keep you updated on the progress and notify you as soon as everything is ready. 

*I do not send RAW files. 

See the difference between edited and unedited photos here.

Will you post the photos we took?

Yes, sometimes I do post a few photos from our sessions. Sharing the images on my portfolio and social media helps showcase my work and allows potential clients to see the quality and style of my photography. 

If you prefer not to have your photos shared, I can accommodate that, but it will increase the price of the shoot by $50.

By booking a photoshoot, you agree with my editing style, which you can see in my portfolio. I edit each photo considering the location, time of day, and lighting to deliver a final result that feels natural and balanced.

It was an amazing experience with Liliya to create our most memorable pre-wedding photoshoot. From coordinating about the date and time for the shoot, she was super flexible. Adding to that was suggestions that she provided for the outfit, makeup and location. Her VIP package is a good option to get more photos, locations and outfit. One word to our experience — “Magical”.
