The practical part.
Here’s what it costs.
Family and maternity sessions come in two lengths. Newborn, senior, couples and wedding sessions are further down. Every price includes the full gallery, and there’s no sales appointment afterward.
Family & Maternity
Two lengths. Same care.
Pick the length that fits your people. Either way, I plan it with you, give plenty of direction, and make the classic portraits along with everything that happens in between.
Built around your people.
The Picture Book
$650
About an hour. Weekdays and weekends.
- Where
- One location, at home or outdoors
- People
- Up to six, then $30 for each additional person

- Gallery

More time to settle in, play, and explore. We make the classic portraits, then follow whatever the kids do next, with room to change the plan on the day.
The short version.
The Snapshot

30 minutes. Tuesday through Thursday.

Maternity clients can come alone or bring a partner and the kids.
Newborn, at home.
The Picture Book - Newborn Session
$650
Around two hours at your place, at the baby’s pace, with time to feed, change and settle. Full curated gallery, typically 75+ edited photos. Same terms as above.
Expecting?
Maternity + Newborn
$1,050
Two Picture Books, a few months apart. Save $250.
Maternity around 28 to 34 weeks, at home or outside, then the newborn session at home in the first couple of weeks. We pencil in a window around your due date and set the day once the baby arrives. Same photographer for both, and I come to you.
A full curated gallery from each session, typically 75+ edited photos.
50% is due when you book. The balance is due one week before your maternity session and covers both.
Seniors
Just them.
Senior photos that look like your actual kid. I find out who they are first; the places, the outfits and how much posing all come after. Every session includes planning, wardrobe guidance and the full curated gallery. No choosing favorites or paying per image.
Signature senior session
A really good version of who they are right now.
The Main Character
$650
- Time
- About an hour, weekdays and weekends
- Places
- One location
- Outfits
- Two outfits
- Gallery
- Full curated gallery, 75+ edited photographs
Time to settle in and make it theirs. We explore the corners of one location, work in two outfits, and come away with a real mix: classic portraits, relaxed movement and the more creative frames. I handle the direction and leave room for the parts nobody planned.
For the senior who’d rather be doing something else.
The Short Story
$450
- Time
- 30 minutes, Tuesday through Thursday
- Places
- One location, chosen together
- Outfits
- One outfit
- Gallery
- Full curated gallery, 40+ edited photographs
The quick version. One outfit, one spot they pick, and thirty minutes of easy direction. Enough to go on, never a production, and the photographs still look like them.
One story, told in a few places.
The Origin Story
$850
- Time
- About two hours
- Places
- Multiple locations, planned together as one route
- Outfits
- Multiple outfits
- Gallery
- Full curated gallery, 100+ edited photographs
The fuller story. About two hours across a few places, planned as one route with the outfit changes built in. The baseball field, then downtown. The skatepark, then the boardwalk at sunset.
Couples + Weddings
The two of you.
Engagements, anniversaries, or no reason at all.
The Double Feature
$650
- About an hour
- One location
- Full curated gallery
Nobody has to act romantic on command. We walk through somewhere you actually like being, and the direction follows how the two of you are: constant jokes, quiet and close, food people, beach people.
Weddings
from$1,500
Courthouse, elopement, or the whole thing. Three coverage options, on the wedding page.
Extras
Bonus features.
One more chapter for your Picture Book, and two things to hold onto.
Wait, what if we also…
Add Another Chapter
+$200
One more hour on any Picture Book, planned together.
If one place tells the whole story, you’re done. If the people or the idea need more room, we add the hour: beach portraits, then ice cream. The park, then the backyard sprinklers.
Add it when you book so we can plan the day around it.
The Print Edition
+$100
8 x 10, soft cover, forty pages, about 55 photos.
A little magazine of your session, laid out in the order the day actually went. Your digital gallery stays the same either way.
Order it with your session, or decide once you’ve seen your photos.
The Polaroid Pack
+$50
Eight real instant photos and a case to carry them home.
Taken during your session, so you leave with eight photographs in your pocket before I’ve edited a single frame. Somebody under ten usually ends up holding the camera.
Add it when you book and I’ll bring the film.
The weekend one.
The Weekend Matinee
Twenty-minute mini sessions on fall weekends, for up to six people. Full curated gallery, typically 35+ edited photos, and you keep all of them. The remaining dates are on the booking page.
