How do I book a photography session with Water Bear?
Booking a session with Water Bear Photography begins with a simple step: filling out the contact form on our website with a few details about your vision and ideal timeline. We personally reply within a couple of business days, usually sooner, to schedule a complimentary consultation where we discuss your ideas, answer all your questions, and get a sense of the experience you are hoping for. Once we have a clear picture of your vision, we will propose available dates, send you a custom proposal outlining the package and investment, and provide a digital agreement for your review.
Your session is officially reserved once the retainer payment has been received and the agreement has been electronically signed. From that moment on, we are in close communication leading up to your shoot, helping with wardrobe selection, location planning, and any special requests you may have. Our calendar typically books out two to four months in advance for studio sessions, and six months or more for destination work, so the earlier you reach out the better.
We send a detailed pre-shoot guide approximately two weeks before your session covering hydration, what to bring, how to prepare your skin and hair, and what to expect minute by minute. Payment plans are available for most packages to make budgeting easier, and we accept all major credit cards, ACH transfers, and certified checks. Throughout the entire process, you have direct access to Kimber and our client experience team so no question ever goes unanswered.
