How do you handle editing and retouching?

I offer basic photo editing services including cropping, color correction, and lighting adjustments to enhance the overall quality of the images. In addition, all photos will receive edits to make your images match stylistically with the photos that you see in my portfolio.

How many photos will we receive?

The number of photos you will receive can vary depending on the length and nature of the event. However, a good estimate to use as a guideline is approximately 100 photos per hour of the event. Please note that this is an estimate and the actual number of photos may vary.

When will we receive the edited photos?

You will receive the edited photos within 2 weeks of your event. I understand that sometimes you may need your photos sooner, so I do offer rush options for an additional fee. Please let me know if you have any special time requirements and I will do my best to accommodate them.

Do you offer posed photos?

Yes, I am able to take posed photographs, but it's not my main focus. My specialty is capturing candid and natural moments that showcase the energy, emotion, and dynamics of the performance. While I can definitely take posed photographs, I recommend that you take a look at my portfolio to get a sense of my style and approach to concert photography.

Are there any additional expenses beyond the cost of the photoshoot?

When you book your photoshoot with me, there are no hidden costs or fees. The cost that is quoted to you during the booking process is the final amount you will be responsible for paying. You will not be required to pay any additional costs beyond what is quoted.

What are we able to do with the images?

You are free to use the photos for any personal or commercial use. However, as the photographer, I retain the copyright to the images.

How far in advance should I book?

I typically am booked around 6 months out, but I put no limit on that and I have repeat clients that regularly book me a year in advance in order to ensure their dates. The sooner you let me know the date you’re looking for, the better the chance I’ll be available.

Should we get photos of the actual performance or of a dress rehearsal?

It depends on what you're looking for. I have clients that opt for both, which is the best option since you get the best of both worlds, but if you're only choosing one, consider this: For the performance, I may not be able to move around as much, so the photos may not be as varied as in a rehearsal. However, I can get photos with the audience, which is important to many clients. For a rehearsal, you get more varied photos but no audience shots.

As a photographer, there's something truly magical about capturing the essence of musical performance during its rehearsal. Last weekend, I had the incredible opportunity to photograph the Alaria Chamber Ensemble at Weill Recital Hall as they prepared for their upcoming concert. Comprised of an immensely talented group of musicians - Yuri Vodovoz (Violin), Tzu-En Lee (Viola), Suren Bagratuni (Cello), Shani Schecter (Violin), and David Oei (Piano) - the ensemble masterfully executed a captivating program.

The ensemble performed Shostakovich’s Piano Trio No. 1, Op. 8, Glière’s Selections from Eight Pieces, Op. 39, and Brahms’ Piano Quintet. The intimate setting of Weill Recital Hall provided a stunning backdrop for the photographs, emphasizing the passion and dedication of the musicians. The rehearsal allowed me to capture candid moments of concentration, camaraderie, and even laughter, offering a glimpse into the dynamic between these accomplished artists as they fine-tuned their craft.

The Alaria Chamber Ensemble's commitment to excellence and their profound love for music was evident throughout the rehearsal. As a photographer, it was a privilege to document these fleeting, yet powerful moments of artistic collaboration.
