Can you help me decide which location is best for me?

Otherwise, let me know about your background and what you're hoping will come through in your photos.

What do these locations mean?

By selecting one of these options as your location package, it means that we will plan to visit the general vicinity of these areas. Clients may decide to spend more or less time within any one of the specified locations. We may decide to move around within a small radius of this area depending on lighting conditions, scene availability (during peak graduation season, iconic locations are particularly busy and we may have limited access to certain locations). We also might stop briefly for photos while moving between locations.

Any last-minute changes to the schedule – either before or during the session – may be possible, but cannot be guaranteed. If your location preferences change, please reach out as soon as possible. 

Where precisely will I meet you on the day of our shoot?

Unless otherwise arranged, I will be standing just in front of Botany Pond at the start of the session. If you need assistance you can contact me directly at hello@markosheastudio.com or 703.973.3661.

What custom locations are available?

Generally, shoots will be held on the UChicago main campus. A wide variety of locations are possible – I'm a UChicago student with access to most places. Some locations may not be possible depending on timing or access, but let me know first.
