deets

  • Questionnaire - be sure to fill it out as it really helps in preparing for our time together (didn't receive it? Check your spam or let us know so we can resend). Full disclosure, itโ€™s a bit long. It includes a thorough brand analysis, a way to fully comprehend you, your brand(s), services, products and goals. It also includes a section for the photographer to style and prepare the best photo session possible and align your brand aesthetics.

    In-Person Consultation - or video call โ€ฆ to discuss, organize, refine and prepare all the details for our photography session, and that of any other service we will be providing.

  • In most cases, youโ€™re responsible for preparing for your photography session, including exfoliation, makeup, hair, and nails. Weโ€™ll plan everything out in advance, but this prep work is essential to creating polished images and minimizing retouches in post-production. Iโ€™ll handle your beauty touchups during these branding session, however, depending on availability and desired results, a PRO make-up and hair artist / assistant photographer can join us for an additional fee of $200.

  • During our pre-session consultation, weโ€™ll discuss and curate the aesthetics for your images. Weโ€™ll decide on the colour palette and I can also refer you to a stylist who can help design or update your look in advance. On photography day, Iโ€™ll guide and assist you in selecting the perfect outfit and accessories for each pose and setting.

  • Our sessions, from scenes, styling, posing, compositions, and messaging, are planned mostly in advance. I demonstrate each pose and guide you through sequences to create a variety of results. I direct and structure our time together, while also allowing space for more organic, spontaneous moments to bring out something unique.

  • In-person or with a video call and an online gallery, I assist and guide you in the selection process. I find that live touch points are best in establishing the best collaborations for photography and design projects. These galeries have minimal post-production edits for this presentation, only selected images are retouched.

    Packages include high-resolution images.
    If you don't need the high resolution files, no problem, all packages have OPTIONS ! Take what you need in high resolution, and double the rest of the images in low resolution web format.

  • Portraits : Each image selected is ever so slightly retouched and edited to provide a polished final photograph. Please be aware that I do not remove permanent marks, or wrinkles, or cellulite, or anything that makes you you ! Personally, I find all the real bits the most beautiful ! My philosophy and policy in this regard is that authenticity, inclusion and diversity serve us best in all aspects of life.

    Product Shots are retouched to provide clean, dust-free and sharp images.

  • Inspired from our branding analysis and made-to-measure photography sessions, the studio has a multidisciplinary approach to harmonizing your brand :

    โซธ Design Services : Custom graphics, illustrations, videos and promotional materials
    โซธ Communication : Copy, editing and translation - French & English
    โซธ Print liaison
    โซธ Consultations and services in establishing branding guidelines
    โซธ Tailor-made experiences and digital assets

    These ร€ La Carte Services and Time Banks (5hr minimum) can be negotiated and included in the contract. These services are charged at an hourly rate of 105$.

  • A 500$ downpayment to reserve your shoot date and launch the questionnaire to start the process is required.  We accept check, Interac, credit and also offer in-house custom payment plans up to 6 months.  Minimum monthly payment is 500$, images and products are delivered once paid in full. 

    Due to the digital and custom nature of our work, all sales are final.

  • I offer 3 types of contracts: one for one-off sessions, another for recurring sessions, and a third that includes agency services ! All services will be listed and the terms of our collaboration will be detailed to make sure we are aligned in our mutual expectations.

    The details of the contract will be discussed and sent through a link for your e-signature.  Our contract serves to protect both artist and client. This document also provides the commercial licences for your images.

    Yes, I use AI to optimize certain parts of my processes and tasks. I also use it to add certain creative elements to some images and videos, but I refuse to use it to replace my creative processes or the personalized approach I desire to have with my clients.

โ€œI had the pleasure of working 2+ years with Karyn on the sales and marketing team at EXKA. Through her dedicated work as branding and image consultant, she was able to bring a special identity to the company by touching on our brands, our products, how we interact with our customers and she did it by negotiating sometimes tight deadlines with all our teams. It was nice to work closely with someone so passionate and it's an honor to be able to recognize all that she brought to this project over a 5-year span.โ€ Dominic Lafalmme, EXKA Inc.

โ€œI loved all my photo sessions with Karyn! She always made me feel very comfortable in a few seconds and the stress from taking pictures of myself becomes a playful game and a nourishing experience! Although she is very attentive to my needs and listen to what I want, she is also very creative and can bring fun and innovating ideas that I havenโ€™t thought about which makes the experience very professional and more complete! I recommend her services as she is very qualified as a photographer, but also to meet the wonderful human she is! โ€ Marie,Certified Coach

"I worked with Karyn on the launch of my new alignment yoga mat, Gurugrid.

We had an enjoyable, easy shoot and a great dayโ€ฆ the photos turned out exactly as I had envisioned, if not better!" Heather McLoed, Creator of the Gurugrid

โ€œI strongly recommend Karyn's artistic / photography & branding services. Fully bilingual (English and French) she is a seasoned professional with experience in regulated environments (pharma, Cannabidiol, etc.).

I learned to fully appreciate the true value proposition of a professional photographer trough her work. Karyn offers a photography experience / process that goes beyond the price !โ€ Sรฉbastien Dรฉsormeau, EXKA Inc.

โ€œKaryn welcomes us to her home in a natural environment, with a friendly dog to greet us, putting us at ease from the moment we arrived! Karyn took us to a field of tall grass, which produced a magnificent result... Thank you Karyn for your simplicity and your complicity in our adventure! I found the experience very pleasant, I would even say therapeutic.โ€ Sylvie Charbonneau, Centre EauVie (orig. writ. in Fr.)

โ€œKaryn came to Domaine de la Riviรจre perdue to take photos in order to optimise the rental of our chalet. What can I say, the work was very well done, she knew how to enhance our property from all angles. What's more, she's a very pleasant person, with a lot of talent." Simon Laflรชche, Owner of the Domaine de la Rivรจre Perdue B&B
