Contact Form

During our first communication via this site's contact form, I will collect the details you give me in my email software in order to communicate with you.


Email

During our communication and in setting up your shoot I create a folder in my email software with your name and the date of your shoot. In setting up your session I will most likely receive your name, email address, phone number, and other details – these email correspondences are kept in your folder in my email software so I can find you and communicate with you easily.

After your shoot I may send follow-up email/s in relation to your shoot, online gallery, receiving your photos, and any further products you may purchase from me.

After your shoot, I keep your email folder & emails connected with your shoot in my archives. I clear client details (if I haven't worked with you for some time) from my email archives every 6 years.


Phone

Your contact details may also be kept on my phone so I can contact you during the time we are working together.

I don't have a formal delete date but I am mindful to delete clients that I haven't worked with for some time after a year.


PHOTOS / DIGITAL IMAGE STORAGE

Once you've booked your shoot I create a folder on an external hard drive that is named with your name and the date of your shoot. I keep all of the digital images from your shoot in this folder. The external hard drives are stored in my home office and are only accessed by me.


IMAGE GALLERY

I may upload a wide selection of your digital images to a password-protected online gallery using Pixieset for you to view and download your images. All of the images in this gallery are private (unless you choose to share your password).
