FAQ
What is your booking process?
It all begins with a conversation. Please fill out the form below, so I can get to know you and your brand. We’ll chat to learn more details about your specific needs. Once you’re ready to book, I’ll send over a contract and invoice for a deposit in order to hold your date. Brand sessions require pre-production, so please allow a few weeks. In terms of availability, my calendar typically books a few months out.
Do you have a studio?
No, I do not, by design. The location of your shoot is part of your story. Your clients are curious and want to know what it is like to work with you and that includes where you work. If you work remotely and are not eager to showcase your space, we will discuss other options, scout and secure permission.
What if I’m uncomfortable in front of a camera?
Did I mention that I’ve been directing models and professionals on set for almost 40 years? I understand body language and will direct you so you look authentic and approachable yet confident and professional. Your personality, your brand, will shine through.
Do you provide retouching?
Absolutely. Retouching, not just a simple cull and edit, is done on all final images provided. Retouching such as removing flyaways, blemishes, smoothing skin tones, brightening teeth are done with a light touch to look natural and go unnoticed leaving the best you.
Do you provide stylists?
Hair and makeup stylists are provided a la carte. I have a team of professional friends that I rely on. Regarding wardrobe styling, you can trust my assistant and me to always keep an eye on all the details.
Do you provide wardrobe guidance?
Yes, a wardrobe and prop guide will be provided. We will also discuss this in detail when we chat about your specific brand needs. In addition, I can connect you to my wardrobe consultant friends for personal assistance.
What if my brand needs models?
Over the years, I’ve hired and directed hundreds of models. I know the local talent agencies well and will cast and schedule your project with organized professionalism.
Do you travel?
Yes, I have traveled numerous times for photoshoots. I love adventure and enjoy any opportunity to see the world! In addition, though I am located in O’Fallon, Missouri, my kiddos live in the areas of Atlanta, Fayetteville, Dallas and Rolla. This Mimi would jump on a plane in a heartbeat to be closer to more grandbaby snuggles.

"Sandy Ferkel, photographer, friend (and long-ago college classmate) just has a knack—and an eye—for capturing those intangibles that make a portrait really sing.
Not sure exactly how it's done, but let's just say there's a lot more to the craft than just
great hair, forgiving makeup, a fashionable wardrobe and an expensive camera."
