Frequently Asked Questions

Bruja translates to "witch" in Spanish, so Photo Bruja means Photo Witch. Because, ya know, I work my magic behind the camera  💁🏽‍♀️📸🔮

I specialize in boudoir and concerts, but I am very versatile and can shoot a variety of subjects! Events, senior photos, maternity, brand shoots, you name it! If you're unsure if I can shoot your project, please inquire through my contact form here.

Sometimes! I am open to smaller, more intimate backyard-esque weddings and elopements. Contact me to see if we would be a good fit :)

Send me a detailed message about your photoshoot vision via my contact form here, or email me at photobruja@gmail.com. 

Yes, all shoots require a $100 deposit to get on my calendar. Due to high interest, I cannot hold a spot for you until I receive a deposit even if we confirmed a date and time. First deposit in, first serve. Deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE. 

You can pay me through venmo, cashapp,  paypal, zelle, or cash.

I will email you a link to a private online gallery where you can download your digital files. The album expires after one month of being received so be sure to download everything before the expiry date!

Location depends on the style of shoot you are interested in! Many of my clients like to shoot in their home, while others like to shoot outdoors, at a friend's home, or rent an airbnb or studio! 

I do not own a studio, however this does not stop us from being able to create beautiful studio shots at one of Portland's many photography studios! I am happy to offer recommendations on where to book.

All photos I take are subject to be used in my online portfolios, including my website and social media accounts. This is a clause that's included in my contract, however if you would like me to keep our photos private or keep you anonymous, please disclose that to me and I will gladly accommodate!

Approximately 3 weeks for portraits, and 4-6 weeks for events/ weddings. 

Only yourself and your outfits are needed! Feel free to bring any props you might want to play with during our session, and some water to stay hydrated. 

I want you to feel safe and supported during our session, so please feel free to bring a friend if you need extra support! However, please try to limit the amount of people accompanying you to one person as to not distract from our session. 

NO. WORRIES. AT ALL! I frequently work with "newbies" and have shot with plentyyy of first timers who always leave our sessions feeling confident and empowered. My job as your photographer is to help you feel comfortable and guide you through our session in a personalized and fun manner. I am happy to be as hands-on or as hands-off with directing your posing as you'd like me to be!

Yes! Travel accommodations are required, please inquire for more information.
