About 2-3 months ahead of when you'd like to have your images. So, if you'd like your images for a website launch, a particular celebration, etc., start thinking about the photos early! I'm typically booked 1-2 months in advance; plus, it takes me 2-4 weeks to deliver your
photos via your online gallery.
If you are in need of a
last-minute booking, please reach out to me. We may still be able to work something out, but the dates may be limited.
01. HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK?
My contract says 6-8 weeks, but I always try to beat that time frame! Usually, my clients can expect their initial gallery in 2-3 weeks and their final gallery in 4 weeks. If you have a specific timeline required to expedite the turnaround times, feel free to send me an email to discuss our options.
02. HOW LONG AFTER THE SESSION CAN I EXPECT MY IMAGE DELIVERY?
I highly recommend my clients get professional hair and makeup done. This takes the stress of "getting ready" off of your plate. Plus, these are the photos you'll be showing on all platforms, so looking &
feeling your best is important.
If you need help with clothing, I have a wonderful stylist I can book you with. She will interview you, pull clothes she thinks will fit your brand, and help you in making these decisions. As for HMU, if you have someone you trust, please feel free to book them. However, I have two wonderful & well-trusted artists I work with. Just send me an email, and I can book either of these extra offers for you at an additional charge.
03. WILL YOU TELL ME HOW TO DO MY MAKEUP AND WHAT TO WEAR?
I suggest every 3 to 4 months, depending on your business and how much content you require. Some businesses may need images simply for a launch or to update their website. However, others may need constant updates because they have new products releasing regularly or they want to keep up with the seasonal changes. If you're looking for consistent content, we can discuss doing regular sessions together after our first session.
04. HOW OFTEN SHOULD I DO BRANDING SESSIONS?
If you're a personal service or product-based brand and we haven't done a shoot together yet, I suggest we incorporate product photography into your branding session. That way you'll have unique headshots, images of you working, and product images. From there, we can arrange product imagery as your products change and grow.
If you need just product imagery right now, we can do that. Prices are based on quantity, size, details, and props/backdrops needed. Reach out for a custom quote.
05. DO YOU DO JUST PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY?
Do airplanes fly?
Yes! Even more so than photography, traveling is my number one passion. By the time I was 25, I had spent significant time on all 7 continents. By 30, I've explored all 50 states.
One of the reasons I love brand photography is being able to work with brands all over the world! So, if you want to do a photoshoot in a different location, my bags are packed!
06. What if i don't live in alaska, do you travel Lena?

The branding photography session I had with Lena Lee Photography has completely transformed my business! Through the process of preparing for the shoot, Lena helped me really hone in on my ideal client and refocus my brand values accordingly. The result was a renewed clarity in my business and a stunning visual representation of my brand that I am now confident and excited to share with clients and collaborators! Thank you so much Lena!

Lena is a fantastic photographer and she is amazing to work with! All of my expectations were either met or exceeded. We had an incredibly special and fun experience during our photo shoot. We love all of the photos from our day, and I really don't have any complaints about a single thing. I would do it all over again and do nothing differently. It was excellent!

Lena is an absolute gem! There are so many people out there who take photos which can make choosing the right one hard. But Lena is so much more than just someone who takes photos - she’s creative, skilled, ready for anything, willing to go above and beyond, professional yet approachable, able to identify the important details, and really just amazing. For us, what set Lena apart was the way she clearly cares about her clients — she put all of her focus and energy into our goals and wishes and exceeded expectations every step of the way — from booking to planning to the actual day itself. Most importantly, when we got the final images they were more perfect than we could have imagined! Thank you Lena!
