Pricing

Providing an excellent client experience is very important to me, and so is clear communication.  My heart is to be able to accommodate various preferences, needs, and budgets.  The best way to do this is to separate the session experience from the Image Collections so that you can have more flexibility!  

Always remember, you do not have to make decisions alone!  

That is why you hire a professional!  I am here to offer advice whenever you need it.  I am here to help achieve your vision.  If you want to be hands-off, that is fine too!  You pick your level of involvement.  I have full confidence to step in and be your "creative director" to achieve beautiful results whenever you want me to.  All you have to do is tell me your primary goals for your images and the session, whatever opinions you have, and I will create a custom experience you will be excited to participate in.  My ultimate goal is for you to walk away with beautiful images to remember this season and enjoy doing it!

I offer three (3) consultations that are free!  They include session planning, outfit consultation, and image selection.  During the session planning, we will discuss many things and I can help you decide which session length is best for your goals.  I am happy to discuss outfits, accessories, and recommendations. If you find it difficult to pick your final images, I can help you there too!  Find out more information on the Your Experience page.

You can prepay for your Image Collection or select it after your session.  It is all up to you!
Overview

This is to help you see the big picture of general portrait sessions.  Some session types (seniors, newborns, branding, events, etc.) have more specific packages that accommodate those genres better.  Please read the details below this section to understand what comes with your Session Fee, Image Collection, and what other options are available to you.    

Most of my sessions are micro or mini sessions...

but I do offer longer for those who would like more time.  You will be surprised by how much variety I can capture in a short amount of time.  

I do not charge per person or penalize large families or extended families by charging more.  

Family should be celebrated, not a money-making opportunity.  We will talk about what you are looking to accomplish and I will advise you how much time I will need to complete it!  During the planning consultation, we will discuss all of this and more to decide what is best for you!  I am always available if you have any questions!

Session Consultations will happen before you book.  To give you the experience and results you want, I need to know what you are looking for.  Even if you are unsure yourself, this will have a significant impact! 

I recommend Outfit Consultations at least 24 hours before your session, up to a week before, unless you plan to purchase or rent outfits.  I can make recommendations about fit, colors, theme, and more.  We will talk generalities about outfit color schemes during your original consultation, but the final touches and specific recommendations will happen here.

*You can prepay for an Image Collection before your session or you are welcome to wait to pay for one after you have seen your Preview Gallery.  If you purchase it before your session, you can break your payment up with a payment plan and it can help with budgeting.  If you wait, which is fine, I will not begin editing until your balance has been paid in full. This can delay your final gallery.  I have clients who have chosen both ways!  Whatever works for you!!!

More Image Collection Details:

Every image is hand-edited with care. You can select up to three (3) images for a quick return to be received within seventy-two (72) hours.  Image Collections of up to twenty-five (25) images will be received within two (2) weeks.  Image Collections above twenty-five (25) will be received within thirty (30) days. All timelines begin when I acknowledge that I have received your selection.  I am very responsive!  If you have not heard from me within twelve (12) hours, please send your selection again.  

All images are professionally edited and receive a basic retouch based on your preferences.  You can downgrade to documentary editing or choose to upgrade to advanced or creative edits for an additional fee depending on your request.

You have seven (7) days to request editing adjustments from the day your Quick Return Image or Final Gallery is sent to you.

*Print credits have no cash value.  You cannot use your print credit toward cards or album purchases.  Print credits can be used for fourteen (14) days from when your Final Gallery is emailed to you.  You will be sent a reminder email so you don't forget!

I offer print releases because I care about you and your choices, but I cannot guarantee the print quality if you do not print through me.  My two big concerns for your prints are color matching and cropping.  My computer is calibrated to the professional print lab I use to ensure accurate printing.

I am happy to schedule a consultation to help you pick your final images if it is difficult to narrow your choices.  If you tell me what you want, I will help get you there!
