Photography Services

Have you ever spontaneously wanted some really good pictures? Or perhaps you want to brave the camera once in a while. Did you ever wonder to yourself, “What is it like to have a casual photoshoot?”

Well wait no longer, we here at Jujube Leaflet have a camera and we’re not afraid to use it! It all started off as a fun little activity between my friends and I, going around the Bay Area, taking pictures wherever we can. Now that I know my way around the camera, I want to share the joy and fun we have to you as well.

We offer three packages for now, casual portrait, graduation portrait, and event photography. The casual package is intended for those who want some seriously good-looking pictures of themselves, perhaps those in need of a new profile picture for their social media, or even for those who simply want to have some fun. Graduation photoshoots are as they sound, we’re going to cosplay you in graduation gear and parade you around your campus, or anywhere you want! For event photoshoots, I am confident in photographing up to semi-formal events such as dinner parties, high school ceremonies, or any situation that requires a guy in a suit to document what’s going around him with pictures. Trust me at your own peril for your weddings, proposals, and special moments. :))

FAQs

What can I expect out of a photoshoot?
Usually what happens is we walk around the location of your choosing and if there’s anywhere we feel could be a good picture opportunity, we spend a few minutes there, get the shots we envisioned, crack a few jokes, then move on. After the photoshoot, we’ll edit the photos and send them to you in a Google Photos album. The photos will be available for a week for you to download, after which they will be removed. If for some reason you didn’t save the photos in time, I save all my work, so please feel free to ask for a re-upload.

What happens after I click the submit button on the interest form?
I’ll reach out and ask for your availability, and if applicable, ask you if there’s anything in particular you’re looking for from the photoshoot if you haven’t already mentioned it in the form.

Should I know anything about posing before the photoshoot?
You need not. Though it would be nice if you could look for inspiration online or in our photo gallery before a photoshoot so you can experiment on your own time with what you believe will make you look the best, we can also help pose you if need be.

What is project boarding?
Before a photoshoot, you can browse and collect certain poses or photos you may want to recreate. For more casual photoshoots, there is no need for this. However, if you want something specific out a photoshoot, project boarding allows you to share your expectations with the photographer and help the photographer plan for a photoshoot beforehand.

Can I change into multiple outfits during the photoshoot?
Yes, but please understand the session timer will continue. Please make sure your outfit changes will be punctual to avoid loosing too much time for the photoshoot itself, and please understand that the minimum guaranteed quota will not be upheld if the subject is available for less than 75% of the session.

What if I don’t know where to go for the photoshoot?
Not to worry, I can help you decide and plan out the shoot! If you provide me with what you expect out of our pictures, we can browse for locations that may suit your preferences and you can make the final decision.

How many locations can I choose for the photoshoot?
As many as you like, but please keep your locations within walking distance as the session timer will continue as we move from place to place. If there are multiple unique locations you want pictures at, please consider scheduling multiple sessions.

Can I have a longer photoshoot?
You may sign up for multiple sessions if you wish to have more time and photos from your photoshoots.

Can I bring my friends along?
Yes, as many as you’d like. However, please keep in mind that I specialize in individual shots, and the more people you bring, the more time a specific shot will require. Therefore, the minimum shots quota will not be upheld. I have some experience in photographing groups but I don’t see myself as “professional” enough to upcharge my clients for them, the base rate will remain the same regardless of how many people you want in your group photos.

Can I have the RAW or unedited files?
As an amateur photographer looking to share my passion for photography, I see no reason not to let you have your unedited photos if you wish to edit them yourself. There is a $50 charge, in exchange for an SD card that can be delivered to you or picked up. If you would prefer a JPG export of all the unedited images, those can be provided for $10 and will be delivered to you via Google Drive. Jujube Leaflet takes no responsibility for the photos we don’t edit and we would appreciate it if you simply kept the RAW files or unedited JPG files and edits you make for personal use only.
