Thank you for your inquiry. My current photography rates are below!
My session styles
Simplicity, Painterly, and Fantasy.
You can choose one style for your gallery or mix them after the initial collection images have been selected. There is a style-specific rate for adding portraits to your collection. This choice is made during your proofing gallery review.
Before booking, please confirm studio availability and discuss the best style during a consultation call. Please note that sessions are limited and flexibility in choosing your date is recommended.
Reservations require a retainer; conversations alone do not hold dates.
Holiday Bookings
Christmas portraits are regular studio sessions unless a private pop-up studio is requested or the Black Friday sale is booked.
Virtual Santa portraits available until December 8th.
Professional headshots: In-studio or at your business.
Outdoor portraits: Offered in comfortable weather.
I do not schedule sessions the weekend following Thanksgiving Day. The studio year ends on December 15th and resumes in the New Year on January 5th.
Printed Art
One Beautiful Portrait
Are you looking to create just one stunning work of art? Transform your space with a stunning wall art portrait, available in multiple sizes to perfectly complement your home. This is perfect if you prefer a single breathtaking image over a full gallery.
Two 5x7 gift prints and a shareable social media file are complimentary with this offer!
You can purchase additional prints through my private lab for guaranteed quality. Alternatively, printable digital files are available at the same price as my wall art.
To make gifting easier, pre-order gift prints (11x14 and smaller) are available—perfect for sharing your beautiful portrait with family and friends.
