May Dream Photography

Depending on what time of the day you want, and what date your event date is, we believe in first come first serve. Please don't be disheartened if your desired photographer is booked out, we'll try our best to sort something out for you. Joyce | Birthday parties, corporate functions and graduations etc. Available: Thursday - Sunday It depends on what date and time you want as she works another job in the weekdays so she will see how it all balances out. Accepts coverage: 1 hour to 8 hours, the VERY MAXIMUM 10 hours. Correy | Family portraits and birthday parties, Available: On the weekends or on an evening during Monday - Friday Accepts coverage: 1 hour to 6 hours

Use whatever platform that is most convenient for you. We are on Facebook, Instagram and Zoom (rarely). Typing sounds very different to someone actually speaking to you so give us a call to have a chat with us at When a phone call is made, you are able to express your ideas clearly and openly. It's a great way to see if you click with us or not. If I am busy photographing other photo sessions and cannot pick up your phone call, it is best to send your inquiry to our email: maydreamphotography@gmail.com with event information such as time duration so we can curate a quote for you.

Your booking will ONLY be deemed to be confirmed once the total amount is fully paid off BEFORE the photo session occurs. If the full amount is not paid well before the photo session your designated photographer WILL NOT show up to your event. Confirmation verbally through the phone or on Facebook messenger DOES NOT suffice for the booking to be an absolute yes.

Every event is operated differently, the guest attendance numbers can fluctuate from anywhere from 1 person to 1000 people and the number of photos given also affects the price. Overall it depends on the live circumstances on the day of the event. If the activities schedule is full-on, of course, there will be a lot of crazy photo taking, if it is only of people standing at a party drinking alcohol all day all night, literally you won't get much essence out of your photos. Also for example some clients like their LinkedIn profile pictures to be highly polished up edited, therefore they are more pricer. Some clients just like normal editing that does not deal with pimples or photoshop slimming of face and arms. It is only if you request "highly edited" photos that we charge extra. All the prices written on our website includes the actual photo-taking on the day, the culling and editing of photos afterwards in post-production, email gallery send-outs, unlimited digital downloads of the photos in HD resolution or the web-sized resolution of your choice, using the unique download pin that May Dream gave you.

The turn around rate for your beautifully edited photo gallery is usually around 2-12 days. During busy peak seasons with numerous large birthday parties on during the spring to summer period (October- April) the waiting time is approximately 1-3 weeks. Of course, we do our very best to give our clients the photos in a timely manner, cause we want to be able to post up the photos as soon as possible to share the excitement that left us buzzing from the event too. As a reasonable human being when you go to bed, we go to sleep as well, we do not pull all-nighters to finish editing your photos as it has an impact on our photographer(s) health and well-being.

Yes, you are allowed to pick out which photos you allow us to post onto social media such as our Facebook/Instagram/LinkedIn business page or be featured on our website as a part of our portfolio. There is a heart icon function on the digital online gallery that I give you, and you would just need to click the heart icon on each photo, only once, so that the Pixieset system can create a favourites list for me. Then we will know exactly what the filename of the image you clicked "heart" on was and proceed to post those up. May Dream Photography is a BIG LOVER of posting, we enjoy sharing the excitement and vibes that kept us overjoyed for days and weeks.

Great question, post processing is an important part of what makes up our service. At May Dream we don't serve raw/unedited photos much like how chefs would not serve raw meat on a platter for you at a restaurant. The amount of photos given will depend on the actual footage that we get on the day as some guests don't like their photos taken or nothing is really happening at the event, no cake, no dancing, no speeches, no kids running around, no hugs, no nothing, thennnn..... logically there isn't really anything that we can photograph, other than the staged group photos that we gather everyone up for.

We would be pleased to design and lay out a beautiful photo book for you. You can choose which kind of texture you'd like for your cover which we have available in matte, glossy or linen. Also, let us know your favourite colour(s) so we keep it in mind and incorporate it into the photo book as much as we can. Primarily we use the Milk Books platform to make the photo book for you as the paper's quality is exceptional and the colours stay so true to the actual edit we did on the photo. It is simple and elegant sporting a timeless look with its minimalist approach so that the viewer can focus solely on the gorgeousness of the images.
