My happy place is anywhere on an adventure, whether it be hiking, traveling or encountering new experiences, I’m open to anything that’ll make your photography journey one to remember! I love the earth and everything mother nature gifts us with— the ocean, the mountains, the forests. Nature is my studio and I use it to the fullest.
Photography is the art of visual storytelling, and I’m here to do just that! I believe that there’s beauty in everyday life and the little things matter. That’s why preserving these memories are important. As you may have seen, I’m a sucker for candids - from the genuine laughs to actual tears— I’m here to capture every natural moment. My aim as your photographer friend is to capture the real and irreplaceable moments in time, in a way that tells a timeless story— one that you can experience over and over again by just looking at a photo.
I don’t offer fixed package rates as each may not be suited for everyone. Instead, I have set rates (that I do not wish to disclose here) that I use to curate a quote based on your, the client’s, preferences. These may include, but are not limited to, the number of images you expect, how many persons will be photographed and your budget.
Request a QuoteFill out the booking form provided or email me directly at bookblustreetstudio@gmail.com. From there we can discuss availability and pricing. When we have come to an agreement, I will then send my contract for you to sign and you secure your session date with a non-refundable 50% deposit, and the balance due on or before the session date. A date and time will not be considered booked without a signed contract and a 50% deposit.
Book Blu Street StudioI am based in Trinidad, one of the twin islands of Trinidad and Tobago, and yes I’ll travel to any country that my passport can take me. Every session has a travel fee embedded, however for regional and international travels, I customize packages depending on where you would like me to be. I don’t care where you are, if you want me to be the one capturing your precious memories, I’ll be there!
No, I do not have a studio or props. I conduct all my sessions on location outdoors or, if necessary, at the client's residence. I also provide a list of possible (and mostly free) places we can use.
Please try to book at least 2 weeks in advance as this gives us plenty of time to properly plan and prepare everything for your session. Plus you are more likely to secure your preferred date this way.
If a session was to be canceled for any possible reason, the deposit used to secure your session date is non-refundable, however the session can be rescheduled or the deposit can be used towards another session.
Depending on my availability, the answer for both questions is yes. However, this can only happen at an additional cost of $200 per half hour.
I aim to have all session galleries delivered within 2-3 weeks after the session date, sometimes less if you’re lucky. If you need them earlier, the delivery can be expedited but at an additional cost.
$100 for 48 hours
$200 for 24 hours
No, you will receive edited, high resolution JPEG images.
Each session includes receiving a link to an online gallery in which your final photographs will be delivered to you in. This is where you’ll be able to view your photographs, download them, and purchase prints from. But remember that these galleries expire after 6 months, so make sure to download all your photographs and store them before, however they can be kept longer at an additional cost.
I only use it for environmental fixes and natural blemishes, otherwise, no, I do not use Photoshop, especially to alter bodies and faces, simply because as a lifestyle photographer, I believe that you are perfect just the way you are!
I do offer prints, however, a print release is included with all sessions so you can source your own prints.
I select photographs I really like to share on my website and social media pages to market myself as a photographer, but I always ask permission first, and if you don’t want me to, then I don’t.
Pets are always welcome at my sessions. I also offer sessions specifically for pets. Upon booking, you’ll be asked if your pet would be apart of your session, therefore allowing me to make the necessary arrangements.
30% of session fees go towards donations for various animal shelters around Trinidad.
I currently use a Sony A7iii with a Sony 50mm 1.8 lens.
