FAQs

What’s the difference between the Sitting and the Afternoon?

The Sitting is one look, one backdrop and five portraits. The Afternoon starts at two looks and adds as many looks and backdrops as you’d like, with time between each to change and be touched up.

Do I need to arrive with my hair and makeup done?

No, arrive as you are. Hair and makeup happen at the studio, and in the Afternoon you’re touched up between looks.

Can I wear my own gown?

Of course. Bring your wedding gown, or anything you love, and wear it for one look or all of them. You're welcome to mix your own with pieces from our collection.

What if the gowns in your collection don’t fit me?

Our gowns are vintage and modern designer pieces, so sizes vary. Tell us your usual size when you book, and we’ll suggest gowns that fit.

Do I receive every photograph from the session?

You receive the finished portraits you choose based on the package you select, with additional ones available for purchase.

Do you only shoot bridal?

While our primary focus is currently bridal, we'd love to hear about other ideas that interest you. Please write to us at hello@swanfields.com.
