Do you shoot film or digital?
I mostly shoot digital, but can also shoot film upon special request.

No worries! Just send me a message through the contact form, reach out for email consultation or coffeechat. I'll offer available options tailored to your needs. During the session, I'll also guide you every step of the way.
