MINI SESSION INVESTMENT: Mini sessions are $299 and include your choice of six photos. Additional photos may be purchased for $40 each or $199 for the entire gallery. Mini sessions are only offered on select dates and times and are booked back-to-back with other sessions. A $100 retainer is due upon booking and will be applied toward your session balance.
GOLDEN HOUR SESSION INVESTMENT: Golden hours sessions are $595 and include your choice of 12 photos. Additional photos may be purchased for $40 each or $299 for the entire gallery. Golden hour sessions are guaranteed the the golden hour lighting that's at sunset or sunrise. You also get to pick your date and location. A $200 retainer is due upon booking and will be applied toward your session balance.
RETAINER: Your session will not be officially reserved until your retainer is paid. Your retainer is not refundable unless...
- Rain or lightning prevent the session from taking place and a suitable reschedule date cannot be found
- COVID-19 State or City regulations prevent the session from taking place
- The unlikely chance that the photographer is unable to fulfill contract due to illness or injury and a reschedule date cannot be found
- The photographer pre-approves the cancellation
PAYMENTS: The remaining balance for your session, less your retainer, is due before your session. If you purchase upgrades after you receive your proof gallery, upgrades must be paid in full before the digital product will be delivered. Studio rental fees must be paid in full at least one week before your session.
UPGRADES: Your session includes printing rights to a select number of digital photos. You will have the option to purchase additional photos at the agreed upon price.
TIMELINESS: Please plan to arrive early to allow time for restroom stops and outfit changes. If you arrive late to your session, it is unlikely all the missed time can be recovered due to the sun setting or schedule constraints. Refunds will not be issued for time lost due to late arrival.
COVID-19: I am fully vaccinated. I wear masks for indoor sessions but I do not typically wear a mask for outdoor sessions. If you'd be more comfortable with me wearing a mask, just ask and I am more than happy to wear one. I also sometimes need to touch you and/or your family to help with posing and outfit malfunctions. If you'd prefer a touch-free session, please let me know before your sessions begins.
ILLNESS & INJURY: If you or a member of your family becomes ill or becomes injured and you need an alternate date, I will do my very best to reschedule your session. If anyone in your family has been directly exposed to a COVID-19 positive person or has ANY COVID-19 symptoms the week of your session, please ask to reschedule.
WEATHER: The call on weather related cancellations will be made by the photographer. For sunset sessions, the weather assessment is usually made by noon on the day of your session. For sunrise sessions, the assessment is usually done the evening before your session.
GALLERIES: Selection galleries will be sent to you 2-3 weeks after your session in most instances, but may take up to four weeks during peak season. If you need your photos back by a specific date, please let me know in writing before your session and I will do my best to help. Rush editing is available but fees may apply.
COPYRIGHT: Your session includes printing rights to purchased photos. Photo will be delivered in high resolution JPEG format. The photos delivered are not to be edited by the client or other person. RAW files are not provided. The photographer retains copyrights to all photos and the photographer reserves the right to post photos to digital platforms (social media, website, etc.) unless client specifies otherwise in writing within 7 days of gallery delivery.
PRINTS & PRODUCTS: Any photos you purchase include printing rights so you may print photos or order photo products at the photo lab of your choice. Your gallery will also include print and product offerings, should you want help ordering prints through a professional lab.
PHOTO STORAGE: Please download and back up your photos (more information on this is provided in the photo management guide you'll receive with your gallery). Once purchased photos are delivered, the photographer does not guarantee copies of your photos will be retained beyond 90 days. Online galleries are also not meant for long term storage and are only guaranteed for 90 days. If you gallery is decommissioned and you request for it to be rebuilt, a $75 gallery build fee will likely apply to cover the time required to rebuild your gallery.
