PORTRAITS

Portraits come in many shapes and sizes and it’s always an honor and a privilege to capture them.

From family photos of loved ones to senior portraits, prom portraits, or graduations, a portrait session is all about celebrating who you are. I work with you to create images that feel natural and showcase your personality, capturing moments you'll treasure for years.

Pricing:

Portrait packages start at $500 with flexible options to fit your vision and budget.

If this pricing sounds like a good starting point, the next step is getting on the phone.

Let’s talk to see what you’re looking for and which package is just right for you

LET'S TALK

Why a call?

I want to understand what matters most to you. I’d love to hear about your family’s story, your favorite traditions, and what you want your photos to reflect. The more I know, the more meaningful your images will be.

A phone call (or a face-to-face chat, if you prefer) helps make sure we’re a good fit and that everything’s clear from the start.

My goal is to help you find the right photographer, I hope that will be me.

The Experience: When you feel good, your photos turn out great.

My top priority is to make sure you feel comfortable, happy, and relaxed, even in a short amount of time. Definitely don’t stress about being in front of the camera. I can guide you into poses and angles that make you look your best and I don’t deliver any photos that aren’t flattering. If you want, I also encourage you to add your own personality to the session, whether that’s your own poses, ideas, or little quirks that make you feel like you. And of course, I’ll be capturing those candid, in-between moments that happen naturally.

Music often helps and usually brings out natural smiles. I’ve also had clients request a favorite comedian, which adds a dose of fun and genuine laughter to the experience.

This blend of posed, candid, and personal shots is what makes for a winning collection of photos that you will love for years to come.

2. A Conversation
We’ll have a call to answer your questions and, most importantly, to understand your vision for the photos. We’ll go over general ideas—no need to worry about small details yet, as we’ll cover those later on. And don’t forget—it’s normal for plans to evolve as we get closer to your portrait or event date.

3. Finding The Right Package, Deposit & Contract
Based on our conversation, we’ll select a package that best fits your needs and secure your session date with a deposit. Once you’re on the schedule, I’ll prepare a contract with all the details for you to review, ask questions, and sign.

4. More Details
We’ll schedule a follow-up chat to dive into the specific details of your session. It’s normal for plans to shift from our initial conversation, so we’ll make sure everything aligns as your session day approaches.

A quick check-in a few days before your session to answer any questions and confirm final details.

HiRes (high resolution) and LowRes (low resolution) refer to the quality of a photo. Hi-Res images are large files with lots of detail, perfect for printing. Low-Res images are smaller files with less detail, which makes them ideal for sharing online, on social media or sending by email because they load quickly. Both types are included so you can use your photos however you like.
II’m happy to travel to capture your beautiful family! Travel within 30 miles is included in all my sessions. For distances beyond this, I charge $100 for each additional 30-mile increment.
Zone 1: 0-30 miles (included)
Zone 2: 31-60 miles ($100 fee)
Zone 3: 61-90 miles ($200 fee)
I provide sneak peeks within 24 hours of your event. While these aren’t final edits, you’re welcome to download and share them on social media.
Next, I’ll deliver a complete low-resolution gallery within 2-4 weeks. You’ll have two weeks to review and request any specific edits.
The final delivery will include both high-resolution and low-resolution galleries. You can download photos individually or all at once.
- Delivery 1: Sneak Peeks (within 24 hours)

Every photo delivered will be flattering and beautifully edited. I focus on enhancing the overall image, not altering individual features. I might make small adjustments, like removing a spot or fixing something that stands out, but I generally avoid changes like whitening teeth or changing lip color. My goal is for you to look great, natural and authentic.

When you receive your gallery to review, you will have the opportunity to request specific edits or if you would like anything removed from the gallery. I’m happy to make tweaks to a few photos for you, but more extensive retouching will incur additional fees.
I’m happy to provide up to 10 additional requested edits as part of every package. If the edits require skills beyond my expertise, I can refer you to a trusted professional who specializes in advanced editing. If you’d like more than 10 additional edits, I charge $25 per photo for each additional request.
