Frequently Asked Questions

What types of photography do you offer?

I specialize in pet photography, real estate photography, event and concert photography, and UGC content creation. Based in Cleveland, Ohio, I also take on creative projects throughout Cuyahoga County, Northeast Ohio, and select regional locations on a by-request basis. If you have an idea, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to discuss it! Learn more about my services here: Photography Services.

Where are you located and do you travel for shoots?

I’m a Cleveland photographer working across neighborhoods like Tremont, Ohio City, Lakewood, Downtown Cleveland, Edgewater, and University Circle. I also occasionally shoot in Memphis, Tennessee and other Midwest cities for select projects. Travel for special projects can also be arranged.

How do I book a session?

You can contact me directly through the Contact page. Once we discuss your vision and location, I’ll send a short agreement and deposit link to confirm your session date.

How much do you charge?

Pricing varies based on project type, duration, and location. For example, Pet Portraits start at $75, Real Estate Photography typically ranges from $140–$225, and UGC packages are custom-quoted. You’ll always receive a transparent quote before booking.

How long does it take to receive my photos?

Edited photos are usually delivered within 3–5 business days via high-resolution digital download. I use WeTransfer for easy sharing and storage.

Do you edit or retouch the images?

Yes, all final images are professionally edited for lighting, color, and tone while keeping a natural, realistic look. Additional retouching requests (like skin smoothing or background adjustments) can be discussed before delivery.

Do you provide prints or just digital images?

Every session includes high-resolution JPEG digital files, but I also offer prints, framed artwork, and professional-grade photo products on request.

Can I share my photos on social media?

Yes! You’re welcome to post your photos online for personal or brand use. Please tag or credit @ruttahs when you post, I love seeing my work out in the wild.

How far in advance should I book?

It’s best to book as early as possible, especially for Cleveland pet shoots, real estate listings, and events, since weekends fill quickly. However, I occasionally have last-minute openings available. Book here: Let’s Work Together

What’s your cancellation or rescheduling policy?

If you need to reschedule, please let me know at least 48 hours in advance. Deposits are non-refundable, but can be applied toward a future session. I understand life happens. Communication is key.
