Your Photo Packages
Galleries for all sessions will include color-perfected ready-to-use digital images. Each package includes a specified number of customized images that include optimizing on Photoshop. Requests for additional retouching will incur additional costs.
For non-wedding photos, your edited photos will typically be available two weeks after your shoot. These are not proofs, but fully finished photos. Many people find that these images are great as they are, and no further retouching is needed. For those that do want additional retouching, you will choose the number of photos according to your package, and then you can expect an additional two weeks for your photos to be ready, depending on the amount and scope of edits.
For wedding photos, expect at least six weeks for galleries and another six weeks for any retouched photos. These times are not a guarantee; each session is unique and may take more or less time. If you have a deadline, please share that information at the time of booking to ensure we can meet your needs. Additional charges may apply for faster turnaround.

The day of the shoot, we will do hair and makeup for 1 person. (Additional people can be added for additional fee). Then we will capture stunning headshots, lifestyle and action shots of you in your business or workspace, plus detail shots of your products or tools. The goal is for you to build the ‘know-like-trust’ factor, before they even communicate with you directly. Picture the Instagram account of your dreams!

Add-Ons
Makeup
I definitely feel strongly about wearing makeup in your photo shoot. Of course, it's your decision, but balancing skin tone, highlighting features, and adding definition can really help your photos have that extra bit of polish. And don't worry if you are very natural and never wear makeup! I can create a natural look for you.
Often people think we can just create a smooth skin finish by photoshopping after the fact. The truth is, while often possible, this can add a lot of time to the workflow, and slow down your gallery delivery.
And men, I'm talking to you, too! A bit of concealer or powder can really make your features stand out!
Unless you feel proficient with makeup, I suggest having a professional do it, because makeup for the camera is different than makeup for day wear. See a few images in our makeup gallery.
See why I suggest a makeup session.
Makeup, Basic/Natural, $60
Makeup, The works, $85
Rush Fee
If you need your edited photos returned faster than the stipulated timeframe, there will be a rush fee applied.
Rush Fee - 25% of package fee
Re-Upload Fee
Online storage is a huge expense for photographers. I do my best to keep your gallery accessible for a few months. Once it has been removed, there is time and cost associated with re-loading it.
Re-Upload Fee - $40 per gallery
