Frequently Asked Questions
- What are your hours?
-
Natural light is best in the morning and in the evening. Studio shots offer a lot more flexibility. Time is always changing with the timing of sunrise and sunset. I also offer night shoots that can start after the sunset. Basically we have a lot of hours available any day of the week.
- Where are you located?
-
I drive all over for shoots. When you schedule we will discuss the look that you are envisioning and come up with a location to make that happen. I also have an in home studio space in the Millard area.
- Do you accept reservations?
-
The earlier we schedule the better for you to get your choice of time. So reach out as soon as you want to think about portraiture and I will get you on the calendar.
- What payment options do you accept?
-
I accept cash, check or Venmo.
- Do you have a cancellation policy?
-
Flexibility is a must because of weather and life. Please give as much notice as you can and I will accommodate rescheduling as much as I am able. My calendar is filling up some both of us may have to be flexible on rescheduling date. Since I do not require a deposit at this time to hold your space there are no refund issues. This may change in the future as my schedule becomes more full.
- What type of portraiture do you do?
-
I love family shots, seniors, grandparents, couples and holiday shoots. I do not offer weddings at this time. I can also do event photography, basically invite me to your party. I am working on a nighttime project with couples who like to kiss. Ask for details on that. I basically think everyone should have their portrait taken at every age and occasion.
- What are the costs?
-
These are the prices and are subject to tax.
Most portraiture: session fee, editing and digital files with print release: $250
Senior sessions: multiple locations and outfits: $500
Nighttime cityscape kiss photos: free
Holiday minis: $150 (session will last 30 minutes, be in studio)
Grandparent session: $150 (session will last 30 minutes, be in studio)
Optional Cost: If we have to use a service to edit something I cannot edit, then there is an additional fee. Never had to use this, but just want you to be aware.
Optional Cost: If you would like a USB drive with photos, additional cost of $20 for the drive and mailing.
All prices are subject to change. We will confirm price prior to the session.
- How many digital files do I get?
-
You will receive digital files that meet my artistic standard. Most portraiture sessions will result in 40 digital files. Minis and grandparent sessions will result in 20. Senior photos will result in 75. Kiss photos will result in 3. This is a guideline. Frequently you will receive more files than this but it is not guarantee.
