FAQ

Q: WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?
We are located in Corpus Christi, Texas but we travel all over Texas, all over the USA, and even International



Q: HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?
Our style has a moody vibe mixed with deep-rich color tones. Dark vibes are my tribe and what I love most.
Alongside that, I long for raw emotion and unscripted moments that come from being yourself. While I might get you to pose from time to time, I like to direct you into movements that just feel natural   




Q: HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD WE BOOK YOU FOR WEDDINGS?
My clients usually tend to book me 1-2 years prior to their wedding date. For elopements, my clients usually tend to book me weeks in advanced. That doesn't mean you can't contact us anytime, we might just have a spot for ya!



Q: WILL OUR PHOTOS BE EDITED?
Absolutely! Here at Portraits by Priscilla, we feel our editing style is a huge part of our brand so sending you un-edited raw images would not reflect our creativity

*
NO RAW FILES WILL BE GIVEN TO CLIENT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, NO EXCEPTIONS!



Q: HOW MANY IMAGES WILL I BE GETTING?
Every Wedding/Elopement varies which is why we don't believe in limiting the number of images we deliver. Not to say you won't be getting a good amount but we believe in "Quality over Quantity".
When you book, we will provide an estimate as to how many images you may be receiving. No specific amount is guaranteed.



Q: WHAT IS THE TURNAROUND TIME FOR MY IMAGES?
For weddings, elopements, and special events, turnaround time is typically 6-8 weeks for editing then 4- 6 weeks after that for delivery of order.
For sessions, turnaround time is typically up to 4 weeks

*TURNAROUND TIME IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE AT ANY TIME ESPECIALLY DURING HOLIDAYS & BUSY SEASON!*




Q: HOW WILL MY IMAGES BE DELIVERED?
For weddings/elopements, your images will be delivered via downloadable online gallery unless you have ordered tangible products from me which then I would discuss an estimated delivery window

*ALL SALES ARE FINAL. NO EXCHANGES OR REFUNDS. ANY REQUEST FOR RE-ORDER WILL RESULT IN CHARGES*



Q: DO YOU OFFER HOURLY RATES FOR WEDDINGS?
YES, WE DO OFFER HOURLY RATES!
HOURLY RATES INCLUDE COVERAGE STRICTLY FOR THAT HOUR AND ONLY INCLUDE HI-RES IMAGES PROVIDED ON A DOWNLOADABLE ONLINE GALLERY.
Clients may choose hour many hours they would like to book.
However, here at Portraits by Priscilla, we feel the only way to capture the essence of your day is to be there with you ALL DAY or until your wedding ends;
which is why we 
recommend booking one of our packages where you will receive ALL DAY COVERAGE plus a variety of other services and product.


FOR PACKAGES:
-WEDDINGS 5 HOURS OR MORE: 10AM START TIME

-WEDDINGS 4 HOURS OR LESS
: 2PM START TIME (DEPENDING ON YOUR CEREMONY TIME)

-12AM CUTOFF TIME FOR RECEPTIONS-



Q: DO YOU OFFER PAYMENT PLANS?
Absolutely!!! Our payment plan is very simple! There are no specific dates each month to where a payment is due. You may pay on your balance whenever you would like.
Final Balance for Weddings/Elopements is due two weeks prior to your scheduled date or on the date we have scheduled for you and that due date will be given to you in our first meeting after you have booked with us.

Full Balance of session fee for Boudoir/Sessions is due two days prior to session date and that date will be given to you when you book.

*PAYMENT PLANS ARE ALSO ACCEPTED AND AVAILABLE ON ALL PRODUCT ORDERS*

Q: DO YOU PHOTOGRAPH OTHER EVENTS/SESSIONS OTHER THAN WEDDINGS, ELOPEMENTS & BOUDOIR
ABSOULUTELY! We have photographed tons of other events/sessions such as Quinceaneras, Sweet 16's, Events, Baby Showers, Bridal Showers, Birthdays, Headshots, Maternity .. you name it!

For special event packages & rates, message us for info




Q: SHOULD I GIVE YOU A SHOT LIST?
Fortunately, I have been photographing weddings/elopements for years now and have developed a very thorough system for how I photograph them.
Not only do I pay close attention to capturing unscripted moments but I also put that attention to details and such.
There is no need to submit a shot list to me but the only list I will require from you is a list of names for family and friends portraits during your wedding.




Q: HAVE YOU SHOT AT MY VENUE BEFORE? 
Chances are if you having a local wedding then I more than likely have shot at your venue, however, if I have not.. no need to worry.
Whether I have or haven't shot at your venue before or you are having a destination wedding, I like to prepare myself way ahead of time, scout the location and do my research.
For Destination Weddings, I require to arrive at least two days prior to your wedding date so I can familiarize myself with the area and scout the location.




Q: DO YOU OFFER VIDEOGRAPHY TOO?
Unfortunately, we do not offer videography but we are happy to direct you to other vendors in that category to help with your decisions
