YOU MUST BE SIGNED UP FOR THE MAILING LIST TO BOOK
You will receive an email with a link to the Request Form when books open, including travel and last minute availability.
Adriana is currently receiving a larger volume of requests than she can currently take on so she is not able to accommodate every single request. However, she does process every single one of them individually and selects the projects that inspire her the most.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER I SUBMIT A REQUEST?
It may take a while for Adriana to go through all new requests, please be patient.
If your idea is Pre-Selected, you will receive an email with all the appointment information. Please read it carefully. You'll have up to 48hrs to respond. Once you have replied to that email agreeing to all terms and conditions you will then receive the deposit information. You will be required to put down a $500 NON-REFUNDABLE Deposit to secure a spot on the official waitlist for an appointment date. Please refrain from sending a request if you are not ready to make a deposit at this time.
After you send your deposit, Adriana will reach out via email, text or phone call to discuss appointment dates that work for both parties.
Adriana's pieces generally require a minimum of 1-2+ sessions as she prefers to work in layers to achieve the best results for fine details and saturation. If your project will requiere multiple sessions, you will be expected to make an appointment at least once a month or every other month at the minimum, until your project is completed. Please make sure you are financially stable before committing. Multiple days in a row will also be available for select projects and individuals.
You may not receive a response. Please don't be discouraged! This means your project was not selected for this round. Please make sure your idea is in line with Adriana's current focus, as illustrated in her portfolio, and try again in a few months for next round of bookings or when there's a last minute cancellation to maximize your chances of getting in. Please know that your request is highly appreciated and carefully considered.
