Frequently Asked Questions
DO YOU TRAVEL FOR
PHOTOSHOOTS/WEDDINGS?
I'm based in Lake Charles, LA and usually shoot around the surrounding areas, but I’m always open to travel! For sessions, travel up to 60 miles round-trip is included ($1/mile beyond).
The following applies to weddings within a 100 mile radius of my location. Please inquire for further distances, destination or out-of-state weddings.
Anything beyond is $1/mile, and depending on how far it is, I might also ask for a lodging fee—just to make sure I’m rested and ready to show up 100% for your big day!

Frequently Asked Questions
WHAT DOES THE BOOKING PROCESS LOOK LIKE?
For sessions:
When you're ready to book, I’ll send over a contract and invoice for your deposit to lock in your session date (amount depends on your session type). Once that’s in—it's offical! Then we will work together to find the right location for your session if you don't have one in mind.
For weddings:
Once you're ready to lock in your date, I’ll send over your contract and invoice. A 30% retainer secures your date on my calendar, and the rest isn’t due until one week before the big day! You'll have the option to pay in installments as you are able via venmo. About 3 months out from your wedding, I will check in with you and send my questionnaire to gather all the details. While you're always welcome to reach out, this will be your opportunity to set up a facetime/phone call with me if you'd like to go over timeline/details together!

Frequently Asked Questions
WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR TO OUR SESSION?
Always wear what feels like you, that’s the most important thing. I want you to feel comfortable, confident, and like yourself during your session.
That said, neutrals and earthy tones always photograph beautifully with my editing style. They tend to keep the focus on the connection between you two and just give everything this soft, timeless feel.

Frequently Asked Questions
I'M nervous in front of the camera, what if I don’t know what to do?
This is the most common feeling, and you’re definitely not alone.
You don’t need to come in knowing how to pose or what to do. I’ll guide you when you need it, while keeping everything feeling natural and relaxed.
Most sessions start with a little bit of nerves, and quickly shift into something that feels easy, where you’re just being yourself and not thinking about the camera at all.

"Austin-Marie is such a talented, sweet, and patient soul. Each photo she took showed her skills and I am beyond pleased with her services. At any time I could ask her to critique the most minute detail because I was in my head about it, and without skipping a beat she’d get to it as fast as she could, AND HAPPY AS SHE DID IT! I recommend her to all my family members and to any stranger online!"

On the day of she helped me with my dress, vale and everything else that I was stressing about she completely took that all away by being right there for me. She captured every moment we wanted and more! Thank you so much! It really ment the world to us that we had you."
