CHRISTMAS SESSION FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Where does the session take place?
At the AK Media Photography Studio located at:
1532 Village Harbor Drive
Lake Wylie, SC 29710
What is included in a Christmas Session?
Each session includes a 30 minute studio time slot, access to our beautifully styled Christmas set, and professional lighting. One professionally edited image is included, and any other images you'd like to purchase can be selected at the time of the shoot.
What should I wear?
You can go casual and cozy — matching family pajamas, aprons, or sweaters — or dress it up with festive dresses, button-downs, or business casual looks.
Try to coordinate your colors around warm holiday tones (cream, red, green, gold, or plaid). Avoid loud patterns or large logos that distract from the cozy scene.
Can I bring someone with me?
These sessions are designed for children, couples, and familes to be photographed, but of course you can bring someone with you to help with hair, makeup, wardrobe, moral support, and to help you select your image.
What is included with my session?
Your headshot mini session consists of a 30 minute time slot in which we will take your photos and then review and select your final image.
What if I want to get more than what’s included?
We're flattered that you love our images so much that you'd like to order more! We offer extra images at only $15 per image, but we also have special rates for 10 or more.
How do I pick my images?
Your photos will be displayed on our large preview screen. We will look over all the images with you and help you make your final selection(s) before you leave our studio.
How long does it take to get my final images?
You will have your final hand-retouched images back within 3-5 business days.
Can I have the RAW files?
Unfortunately we do not offer any RAW images to our clients.
What about hair and makeup?
It is best to arrive ready to shoot, but we have a hair and makeup station at the studio to touch up once you arrive. We do not have a hair and makeup artist on site for Christmas sessions.
What are my background options?
These session are designed to feature one Christmas backdrop. We offer other options on different days, so make sure to ask your photographer about other dates, or feel free to reach out to our office at (980) 428-9229 to learn more.
What else do I need to know to be ready?
The most important thing is to relax and enjoy your session! We always have a great time with our clients and can't wait to work with you to produce images we know you will love.
