My goal is to make you feel relaxed enough in front of the camera so I can tell your story. Being outside, interacting, and catching those right moments is what lifestyle photography is about.
All my sessions include the ability to download a certain number of edited high resolution files. For the number of digital downloads included in your session, please see the portrait pricing guide.
The original copyright on all photographs stays with me, but clients receive a personal printing release. Print products are also available through your online ordering gallery.
I spend a lot of time with the post-production of the images and therefore what you receive are final pictures- there are no proofs. I personally go over each photograph for exposure, color balance, contrast, and quality before it is given to you. Your digital files will be ready for you approximately two to three weeks after your session.
Your photos will be delivered to you by direct download. I will email you with a link to your gallery. Choose your digital files from your gallery and they will download to your computer. You also have the ability to upgrade and purchase your entire gallery.
A non-refundable retainer and signed contract is due to schedule your session. Please contact me to obtain your customized contract. Your final payment is due on the date of your session.
Please note that I require a final time, date, session location, signed contract and retainer prior to reserving your session. When you reserve your session, you are agreeing to a specific date and time.
Travel is included up to 25 miles from 08088. I do not book sessions beyond 50 miles or beyond 1 hour from my home. There is an additional cost for city sessions.
Weekend availability is limited.
Prices may change without notice. My current pricing at the time of booking will be honored.
portrait questions
How do we reserve a date for a session? Email me! We’ll finalize a date, time, and location. I will send you a contract and ask that you send it back with a deposit. The remaining payment is due in full on the date of the session. I typically book 4-6 weeks in advance.
How long does it take to receive our images? It takes me approximately two to three weeks to finalize your photos.
Do we get the pictures? Yes, you will receive high resolution files of the images to download to your computer. They are unwatermarked files. Please read your contract or my pricing guide for the number of included digital files you receive with each package.
Can I order prints through you? Yes, you can order prints through your online gallery. The gallery is password protected but you can also share with family & friends. You can order with a credit card or paypal and have your prints shipped directly to your house.
What does “direct download” mean? I will email you once your gallery is posted and your images are ready. The email will contain directions on how to download your image files to your computer.
Where do we have the session? We can arrange for the session to be held outdoors at a location of your choice. Going to your favorite park or town can produce some of the best images! If you’re having trouble deciding on where to go- I can help out! There are no travel fees for within 25 miles of 08088. Above 25 miles there is a small travel fee. I do not travel beyond 50 miles / 1 hour for portrait sessions.
What do I wear? I would suggest wearing comfortable clothing that is true to your style. I would suggest avoid wearing all solid white. If you are dressing an entire family, it is best to wear the same color scheme, not necessarily the same exact color or pattern. Ask me for a a copy of my “family guide” with tips before your session!
