FAQs
 
What if I’m not a great surfer?
All good!
You don’t need to be ripping. As a guide, consistently catching a wave every 10 minutes gives us the best chance of a decent selection of surf pics.
Where are sessions held?
When in Vic - mostly around the Surf Coast, Phillip Island and Mornington Peninsula. If you have a spot in mind, let me know.
While travelling - wherever I am!
How do I receive my photos?
You’ll get access to a private gallery where you can download your selected images with professional edits.
How long does it take to get my photos?
Up to 14 days for private shoots. If you need them faster let me know.
Can I choose my photos?
Yes! You'll get access to lo-fi unedited photos to view for the selection process.
Your chosen photos will be professionally edited by me and delivered in a final gallery to you. Photos delivered are high resolution.
What should I wear / bring?
Whatever you’d normally surf in.
If we’re shooting in a very busy line up an identifying item like a distinct hat, board or wetsuit can help me locate you better = more photos to choose from.
What if the surf isn’t good?
If conditions aren’t great, we will have a chat to discuss options. Often it will mean rescheduling but if you’re limited for time and conditions are safe we can still shoot.
Do you shoot in the water or from land?
Both — pricing for each is detailed in the packages option. In water is priced higher due to the additional prep time and complexity to safety prepare - both gear, and myself.
Do you do drone shoots/videos?
Yes! If you're interested, get in touch.
A quote will be provided according to the deliverables required.
We can have a chat to find a suitable date and location to comply with drone regulations.
