You will also receive a custom Vivian Doan Photography USB key that you can keep and reuse. It will contain two main image folders:
- JPEGS for printing in 300 DPI. Each image will be given to you in colour, black and white, and sepia. These files are large enough for poster printing.

Rush pricing
Regular delays for proofing is 2-3 weeks depending on the season. If you require proofs faster than the regular delays, fees are $50 + tax for one business week, $100 + tax for one business day, by 5PM. This means if the session occurs on Friday, Saturday or Sunday, the proofs will be delivered on Monday by 5PM. The fees will be added to the invoice for the session fees and must be requested prior to the session.
Retouching
If any retouching is required, the client must specifically ask for it. Fees start at $50 per hour, with a minimum of 1 hour charged. Some minor simple blemishes may be included in your digital package if retouching is quick and easy. But if it more elaborate such a smoothing out wrinkles, taming fly-away or grey hairs, or fixing clothing, the hourly rate will apply.

Vivian Doan Photography is going Eco-Friendly
My packaging reflects my respect for the environment and my love for planet earth. I don’t use big bags, fancy boxes, tissue paper and/or confetti. My goal is to have the carbon footprint for your photography session remain as small as possible and to keep things simple, recyclable or reusable. For this reason, your photos will be presented on a lovely 8GB USB key so that you can both reuse it in the future and have a souvenir of our time together. You will also receive your receipts and contact sheets in PDF format.
Extras
Any location outside Montreal may be subject to an additional travel fee. The fee would be determined based on how far the location is and how long it would take to get there and back. Will be determined at the time of the booking. Any additional persons added to a photo session may incur extra fees of $25 per person. Any additional USB keys requested are $50 each. Any additional hours outside of the 2 hour portrait session may incur additional fees of $100 per hour. Events have different additional hour pricing.
All prices are subject to provincial and federal sales taxes. Method of payment accepted is by cheque, INTERAC email, or cash (exact change please). All prices are subject to change without prior notice.
