Portrait Session Information
Design Consultation
I enjoy taking the time to get to know my clients. Our relationship begins with a first meeting and continues through the delivery of the final photo creations. The design consultation begins when the client contacts me with interest in scheduling a photo session. We then set up a place and time to meet and discuss and schedule their photo shoot. The design consultation is essential to ensuring the client has the opportunity to express their own desires, styles, subjects and ideas regarding the photo shoot. Communication is essential to ensuring a successful photo session and a pleasant photographer-client relationship.
Session Information
Each and every client is very important to me. Therefore, it is my goal to focus on one client at a time. Each session typically lasts 30 minutes to two hours but may be slightly less or slightly more, depending on the situation. The style of the session may be formal or informal, may include multiple changes in outfits, locations and props, and a variety of looks. These decisions will be made during the design consultation. During a normal session, I will take 20 - 400 images to ensure I capture my client(s) at their best. However, during the editing process, I typically narrow that down to 12 - 200 of the best photos for you to view and purchase.

Event Photography Sessions
Design Consultation
Design consultations for event photography begins in a similar manner to design consultations for portrait session photography. I enjoy taking the time to get to know my clients. Our relationship begins with a first meeting and continues through the delivery of the final photo creations. The design consultation is essential to ensuring the client has the opportunity to express their own desires, styles, subjects and ideas regarding the photo shoot. Communication is essential to ensuring a successful event and a pleasant photographer-client relationship.
Session Information
The length of an event session will be different from a portrait session. I will arrive early and stay as long as needed to capture all the amazing details of your event. This type of session is ideal for live events, theater productions, ceremonies, family reunions, product photography, business and real estate photography, school, sports, music, theater, church and community events.
Pricing
The pricing for event sessions will be determined following our consultation. Contact me to discuss how I can meet your photography needs and stay within your budget.
