Prices

It is my personal belief that when you hire a photographer you are paying for their skill, their knowledge,
and their experience. As someone once explained to me, it’s kind of like when you get surgery. Anyone can cut
you open, heck, I can cut you open, but you are paying for someone who knows what they are doing. It is for
this reason that I charge more for sitting fees and less for prints. I believe you should be paying me for
my time, and not for paper. I also believe in keeping things simple, so my prices are the same
no matter what the occasion.

Sitting Fees

$225. (with a $50 print credit)

This is the price for single portraits, couples, engagements, family, trash the dress, whatever floats your boat. The sitting usually lasts about an hour or two. I take an unlimited amount of photographs and narrow
them down to about the best 100-200 images posted online for you to choose from, along with a disc of all the final images. You can change your outfit, we can change backgrounds, it’s all included.

You pick the location. Distances over 30 miles will have the aditional fee of my travel expenses.

If you desire a full day with multiple locations, or just something crazy. You can have whatever you want. Just contact me with the details and I’ll give you a price.

Portrait Books

Did you ever have trouble selecting just a few photographs to frame? Get 20-40 images in a 8 x 8 photo hard cover portrait book for $260. Additional copies at $90.

Weddings

Full day coverage with two photographers starting two hours before the ceremony, through your reception is $1,750. This also includes a free engagement sitting. This fee does not include paper proofs, but rather your entire wedding posted online for all your family and friends to see.

I always shoot weddings with a second photographer, my husband Ray, to ensure you get the best variety and the most special candid moments captured. Full day coverage means there’s no time clock. There’s no additional costs for extra locations for formal portraits. Tell me what’s important to you, and I’ll do my best to make sure you get it.

From there everything is custom made to fit your needs. Whether you just want a simple modern press printed book, or an elegant album with additional parent albums, is entirely up to you. Here are some examples of what things add up to, they are not set packages, and you don’t have to make any decisions about albums until after your wedding.

Sample Package 1- Engagement sitting, full day wedding photography coverage, 20 Page 8 x 8 Book, and a Disc of all images = $2,010.

Sample Package 2 – Engagement sitting, full day wedding photography coverage, 30 Page 8×10 Album, and a Disc of all images = $2,410.

Sample Package 3 – Engagement sitting, full day wedding photography coverage, 40 Page 10×10 Album, Two 20 Page 5×5 Parents Books, and a Disc of all images = $3,080.

If you are having a smaller ceremony and are not looking for a full day’s coverage, I’m more than happy to accommodate your needs. Just contact me with the details and we’ll work something out.
