FAQ | Tammy Nicole

Yes, I do! You are welcome to wear your own outfits, but I can also give you a few things. I have dresses, tops, skirts, and pieces of fabric. Please bring your own underwear in black, white and neutral. Visit the maternity gallery!

It depends on what type of session it is and where it takes place. Here are the average session lengths based on my experience:

Family outdoor sessions: 1,5 to 2 hours.
Maternity outdoor sessions: under 1 hour.
Maternity studio sessions: 1,5 hours.
Newborn & Babies outdoor sessions: 1,5 to 2 hours.
Newborn & Babies studio session: 3 to 4 hours.
Newborn & Babies at-your-home session: 2 hours.
Breastfeeding and baby wearing sessions: 30 minutes.

Yes, I do. I have a lot of hats, pants, diaper covers, wraps, blankets, etc. and we can use them all in studio sessions. For outdoors and at-your-home sessions, I will make a selection based on your baby’s gender and age and will bring them along. Baskets, buckets, prams, and boxes are also available in the studio. Visit the newborn & baby gallery!

This question is very common, as many families are unsure of what would suit them better.

Outdoors sessions are a lot about connecting with nature and using the natural surroundings as backgrounds. If you like being outdoors, you like nature and you would like beautiful light and colors, then this is for you. If you have young children, this is definitely the best option as they can run around and play and I can capture them in a natural way. These sessions are natural, mostly non-posed, and it’s a lot about capturing your connections and emotions in a relaxed way.

At your home sessions are very relaxed as you will always feel comfortable with where you are, it is what you know and are used to. This is a great option if you have a shy partner, for example! The great thing about this type of sessions is that I will also make photos of your home, the details, the decoration. So the memory created in the images will help you remember in the future, not only your family in itself, but also where you grew up as a family.

Studio sessions are about creating fine art images. We will create a few settings that fit our styles and you will be guided through different poses.

Tammy Nicole Photography owns the copyright of all the photos. Copyright is a legal right that grants the creator of an original work exclusive rights to its use and distribution. As such, you are not allowed to claim the photos as created by you, nor profit from them.

Yes, I do. I have a contract in English that was written by a lawyer. I will send it to you at the moment you would like to proceed with the booking, and you must have it signed to save your date and spot.

No, I do not. I will not write your names, ages, where you are from or what you do, etc. When I blog about your session, all I will write is ‘’The A. family’’ as a title.

There are different things I use the photos for:
(1) I will add the photos of your session to my website’s portfolio
(2) I will write a blog post about your session and include photos.
(3) If a photo is a favorite of mine, I will use it for marketing material, such as flyers.
(4) If a photo’s characteristics apply for a specific photography competition, I will submit it in the contest.
(5) I will share them on my social media accounts.

Yes, I do. I am a member of a lab that works exclusively with professional photographers and designers, and I can therefore offer you top quality products. Prints are made on a professional matte paper and in a variety of sizes. Wall decoration products include canvases, prints on aluminum paper and acrylic glass, with a hanging system and options of different color frames. To place an order of products, a minimum of €100 is required.

Yes, I do. I design custom-made albums with the photos you choose. This is a wonderful way to preserve photos as a memory, instead of having them on a CD in a drawer of your desk, which could end up being forgotten as the years go by. Albums are easy to go back to, look at together as a family, and you can even make more than one and have them as presents for your relatives. The matte paper and colors are of professional quality, the albums open flat, and you can choose to have a landscape or a square format. The number of pages depends on the amount of photos you choose, but there are usually an average of 30 pages. The design of the album as a whole is left to my choice and expertise, although you may choose the photo and text you want on the cover.

Yes, I do. I work together with a wonderful hair stylist and make up artist. Please contact me for further information.

No, I do not.

Yes, I do. You will receive all the chosen photos in both color and B&W.

No, collecting in cash does not exempt you or me from paying taxes.

No, they do not. A 19% tax will be added to the prices on the list I provide.

Yes. I will send you the current packages and prices list, which includes the fees for weekday sessions. Weekend sessions incur an additional €25.

After you view your gallery and decide which package you would like to choose.

Yes, as long as you notify me 48 hours in advance, otherwise you would have to make a payment for a new deposit. We may then re-schedule and choose a date depending on my availability at that moment. You may only re-schedule once.

Unfortunately, no. The deposit is non-refundable.

First of all, enquire for a session and I will reply with my suggestions. After our pre-consultation, I will send you an invoice for the retainer and a contract. Your date will be reserved once I receive the signed contract and the payment of the deposit.

For information about my prices, click here. You may also contact me and I will send you the current packages and prices list.

Advanced editing is what I mentioned on the previous answer. Custom editing is anything that requires extensive and personalized work in Photoshop such as changing the size and shape of body parts or other objects in the scene, adding or removing objects to a scene and other custom work. I charge hourly for the custom post-production as all images are different and the amount of work depends on the complexity of each image. Please contact me for more information.

Yes, I do. All the images I deliver are a result of an advanced post-production with my unique style. This involves corrections such as exposure, color, clarity, balance, etc. It also includes removal of temporary blemishes, bruises, dirt, etc.

Yes, I make videos using your photos and custom music. I also include your little one’s data like name, date of birth, weight and length, and anything else you would like to include. This is a great way to announce the birth of your baby and share it with friends and family. To see examples of my video services, click here.

Yes, I make videos using your photos and custom music so you can have this unique memory for everyone in the family to watch. To see examples of my video services, click here.

Yes, I offer video services for the ‘A day in our life’ family project. To see examples of my video services, click here.

You have the right to reprint images whenever you want. I strongly recommend avoiding cheap shops and drugstores, since their equipment cannot handle the image quality and will alter colors and tones, resulting in a completely different image than the original. I own the copyright and you may not sell your images for your personal profit.

A €50 fee will apply for delivering your photos again after the session has been archived 1 month after I deliver the photos to you. I strongly recommend you make at least one copy of them when you receive it from me.

I will send your photos via Dropbox after I receive the final payment, and I will also mail a CD or a USB stick to your home as soon as possible.

All my packages come with full-resolution images. However, I do not provide RAW (unprocessed) files from our shoots because I believe in delivering a finished product.

Yes, though there are some rules to do so in order to protect my intellectual property. I will provide low-resolution files so that the photos still have a good quality and are not compressed by media sites. These photos will have my watermark on the bottom, which will not bother or distract. Moreover, you must credit the photo by writing ‘’Copyright by Tammy Nicole Photography’’ and tag when possible. For more information please check the ‘Privacy & Legal’ FAQ.

Yes, you will receive the best quality and high-resolution files. If you choose to use the photos on social media, I will also provide low-resolution files, so that the photos still have a good quality and are not compressed by those sites.

For outdoors and at-home full sessions, you will receive a gallery of approximately 50 photos. It it could be more, or it could be a bit less… It depends on the amount of people in your family: the more people, the more variety of images to show. For smaller outdoor sessions and studio sessions, the galleries are usually between 15 and 30 photos.

From the moment I send you the link to your gallery, you will have 14 days to choose your photos. After these 2 weeks your gallery will be erased and a €25 fee will apply to upload it again.

About 10 days after your photo session you will receive the gallery to choose your photos from. If you need to receive your gallery earlier, a rush-delivery fee of €50 will apply to receive it within 3 business days. Exceptions apply when the photo shoot is close to dates in which I will be on holidays or while I am working abroad, and therefore it will take longer for me to deliver the gallery to you. To view my current holiday plans, click here.

I will create a password-protected online gallery for you. The web-resolution photos will have my watermark and a number. You will also find a form to fill in and write the numbers of photos that you choose. By submitting the form I will receive your order.

No, I do not. I choose the best by eliminating duplicates, test shots, out of focus shots, some shots with unflattering expressions, etc. You can trust my expertise and know that I am dedicating time to find the best shots.

No, though they do apply for locations outside the Munich area. Travel costs are calculated at €0,40/km return from my home studio in Haidhausen, minus 5km.

I am based in Munich, Germany, but I offer my services around the world. Traveling will incur adding the cost of travel and accommodation. I am often in Norway in the areas of Akershus and Telemark, so special and lower rates apply depending on the specific circumstances.

I have a unique style of photography, which is a combination of natural, dreamy, ethereal, soft, raw and emotive imagery. The photos I create tell a story and evoke feelings. Some times a photo can be perfect in its composition, sharpness, and all other technicalities. However, I do see beauty in photos that are out of focus and grainy, or that have a creative cropping, or create a special feeling with an extraordinary light.

Sunset is my favorite time to photograph since I simply love the golden light. The warmth this light creates on the images is simply breath taking!

As much as I love the golden light for its warm tones, I am also a fan of grainy and textured black and white images!

I am also a fan of all things vintage and I often incorporate props.

As for the editing, I tend to choose a natural and raw feeling to it, as well as giving the outcome an old look as if it was film.

I will guide you through what to wear, but my style is very simple and -above everything- I want you to be comfortable. I insist on you not wearing matching outfits as this does not look natural and therefore does not fit my style. I can make posed and traditional photos for the first few minutes of the session, but after that I want you to loosen up, have fun, enjoy the moment and show me who you are as a family. I will focus on connections and feelings, since capturing emotions is part of my personal style.

I believe that by hiring me, my clients deserve my professional creative vision and technological expertise to create art for them. In order to achieve this, I use a professional camera, I have the latest updates of the editing software, and I often participate in workshops to deepen my knowledge. As an artist, I will create by having a deep understanding of artistic theory, but I will also create by being moved and touched by feelings, watching and appreciating the connection between your family members.

My philosophy on client service relies on creating beautiful friendships with all of my customers that go beyond the day of our session. I am focused on providing the best possible service to my clients. Once you first contact me, I will make sure to have you as a priority and I will contact you as soon as possible. I will assist you in planning your photo session by giving you ideas and suggestions based on my experience. On the day of the shoot I will capture every moment with my artistic vision. Your photos will be an artistic product worthy of the Tammy Nicole Photography brand.
