What's with the weird business name?
Our name is a word-play on standard photography terminology, and our own creative purpose as a photography company. The terminology is too boring to explain here.
However . . .
"(I)n (S)earch (O)f Muse" expresses our own desire to fulfill our artistic needs through working with our clients. We look forward to booking photo shoots that will be just as memorable for us as for you!
Do you specialize in any particular kind of photography?
Portraits are our bag!
We are happy to shoot a variety of portraits that challenge our creativity. However we find single model portraits especially inspiring.

Do you charge a consultation fee?
No consultation fees! We recently changed this policy for the benefit of all our clients. So feel free to reach out to us - worry free! We can't wait to talk to you about your project!
Is there a booking fee or deposit needed?
Yes. Depending on details of your project we will require a deposit (booking fee) of up to 50% of the total contract agreement. This fee and all other payments are subject to our cancelation policy outlined in your contract.
Do we have to sign a contract?
Yes, we require all clients to sign contracts so that all invested parties know exactly what to expect on the day of shooting and how your images will be delivered. It's not personal, it's just good business.
What if our plans change, and do you offer refunds?
We understand that unexpected circumstances are a part of life. We do not offer refunds for cancelations, but we will work within reason to reschedule your shoot.
What events can I book for?
Apart from our portrait sessions, we offer photography services for your small to medium sized private or public events! Wedding and Quinceñera celebrations are booked on a limited basis. Contact us for a consult today so that we can discuss your needs!
How long does a typical photo session last?
Our standard photo session usually lasts two hours. This allows us to shoot a variety of poses, and a wardrobe change if needed. Need more/less time? No worries, we will schedule a session that meets your needs.
How/when will I receive my photos?
Once your proofs are ready we will provide you access to your own private client gallery. From there you can select your favorite poses and download your finished images.
Depending on client volume, we will deliver your finished digital images within one to two weeks.
Note: Be sure to allow a lead time of 12-14 business days when ordering professional prints from our online print store.
Do you offer print and/or framing services?
Yes we do! We partner with a number of reputable printing and framing services. Once your images are ready, you will have access to our print store where you may select from a wide variety of products which are sure to meet your needs!
