Pricing

The way I price my photography sessions are as follows:

  • Weddings / Special Events – Since your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event, I am fully committed to capturing your story as a couple. Every wedding and client are different with certain requirements, so I do not offer set pricing packages. Instead, I treat each client differently by authoring a free pricing estimate for each wedding photography inquiry I receive. I encourage you to contact me for a free custom pricing quote today.
  • Engagement Sessions – Engagement sessions are a great way to get to know each other as a photographer and couple before the wedding date. It helps you learn about me, my photography style and how I will interact with you to make things a bit more comfortable on your wedding day. Plus it helps me get to know you better as a couple so I can take photos that best represent who you are and your relationship with one-another. These sessions usually last 1-1.5 hours and can be at any location of your choice (park, scenic location, favorite hangout spot, etc). Think of it as more of a date at a place with special meaning for you. Couples often include these photographs as part of their wedding invitations. If you are interested, please mention this when requesting a quote.
  • Portrait Sessions – Capture your special family moments with a customized portrait session. These sessions are held at a location of your choice (most often the family’s home residence) and can include photographs with or without a backdrop. The price depends on your photography needs and location. I encourage you to contact me for a free custom pricing quote.

Each photography session price includes:

  • FREE Post-Production: Post-production work will be done to select photographs such as cropping, color-correction and digital enhancement.
  • FREE Online Photo Gallery: After the photo session, a password-protected online gallery will be provided to share Web-ready images with family and friends (active for 60 days after the photography session).
  • INCLUDED High-Resolution Photographs: All photographs taken during the event will be provided as high-resolution JPEG files named according to the event and numbered sequentially. All photographs will be provided via DVD in a customized, personally designed case within two weeks of the photo session.

Optional deliverables (priced separately if requested – please ask to see my print pricing list):

  • Canvas Wraps: Large-format prints perfect for hanging in your living room.
  • DVD Slide Show: A DVD featuring a slide-show of all photographs obtained during the event, playable in any DVD player.
  • Photo Book: A hard-cover photo book featuring all photographs obtained during the event.
  • Prints: Prints in various shapes, sizes and on different paper stock selections.
