Question 1

Where will my shoot take place?

Accepted Answer

My Studio is based at The Archives in Tottenham Hale, its a short walk from Tottenham Hale tube station and also has onsite parking. Simply type nick corre photography into google maps and my full address will pop up.

Question 2

What should I wear?

Accepted Answer

My advice here is bring as many options as possible! It is always better to have too many options than too few.....though this doesnt mean 20 versions of the exact same top in different colours.
 
I go into a lot more detail on my pre shoot email but I find that earthy tones, pastels and neutral colours are always a winner, as are tops or jumpers with some texture to them.
 
Layers are also excellent too. So if you've got a jacket with a not too distracting collar make sure to pack that too! 
 
Other than making sure to avoid large prints or logos I find that nobody knows what looks good on you quite like you. 
 
Oh and make sure you don't screw them up into a backpack. There is no worse feeling than someone bringing a top that is perfect but so creased it draws the eye!

Question 3

Do I have time to shave during the shoot?

Accepted Answer

If you wish to shave during the shoot I recommend booking the Portfolio package as it's the only one which gives us enough time to shave without rushing. 
 
Trust me, your skin will thank you for the extra time to settle down. 
 
It's important to ask yourself if you really need to shave though. Consider how you would enter an audition room for a first round and that's how your face should appear!

Question 4

How quickly will I recieve my pictures?

Accepted Answer

All your photos will be uploaded to an online viewing gallery within 48 hours of your shoot finishing. 
 
This gallery allows you to preview low resolution versions of the images in order to select your favourites and discuss with me any issues you may have before retouching.
 
Once you have selected and paid for your images you will receive the high resolution images to download within 7-10 Working days.

Question 5

Can I purchase additional images?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You can purchase as many additional images as you like. These are all processed through the gallery website and are an additional £20 for each retouched photo.

Question 6

Can I edit my own pictures?

Accepted Answer

In short the answer is no.
 
I make sure to edit my images to a professional standard and anything other than this would do a disservice to both my work and more importantly you as a performer. 
 
I am always happy to discuss retouching and editing and strive to provide images which you are happy with.
 
A headshot is one of the most important tools of an actor and I thank-you for trusting me with yours. 
 
Also, I ask all clients to refrain from adding additional filters or editing when uploading images to social media.

Question 7

Can I have all the unedited photos?

Accepted Answer

Again in short the answer is no.
 
Unretouched photos are merely the starting point from which we build and again putting these out into the world would be a disservice to both me as a photographer and you as a performer.

Question 8

Do I need to pay a deposit?

Accepted Answer

On all my shoots I ask for a deposit which is taken off the full cost of the shoot.
 
At this point I block the date from my diary and is my commitment to working together. As such all deposits are non refundable.
 
The remainder of the shoot cost should be paid by bank transfer 24 hours before the shoot time or by cash on the day. 
 
If I am no longer able to make your shoot time due to any unforseen circumstances I will first try to rebook your shoot at a time which is convenient for you. If this isn't possible then you will recieve a full refund.
