All that being said, I am here to make your plan, idea, or vision come to life. Whether it be shooting one of the most memorable days of your life or a simple LinkedIn headshot, I’m here, camera and editing software at the ready! So what are you waiting for? Let’s do this!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My standard rate is $400/hr for most shoots. If you are low-income and looking for photography, please specify in your outreach.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I require a 50% deposit in order to book the time and date of the shoot. This is non-refundable but will be used as a credit towards your total invoice. Before the shoot, we will have a 15-30 minute call to chat about your vision. This can be extended as necessary for engagement or wedding shoots.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been taking photos since I was a teenager and have taken photography courses in both Digital and Film Photography during High School and Middle School.
