Portrait Photography Information


Pricing - For family portraits I charge a sitting fee plus the cost of proofs. The results of the sitting will be delivered in a keepsake proof book, and a typical sitting will generate between 50 and 100 images. Payment is not required the day of the sitting. You will be billed with the proofs, and subsequent enlargements will be sent upon receipt of initial payment.

Proofs and Enlargements - Your proofs will be delivered to you in a convenient proof book. Enlargements come in the usual variety of sizes, and can be either standard or custom. Should you have any preference for a particular type, size or print style, please do not hesitate to discuss it with me. I shoot with a digital camera, which allows for enlargements to be printed in either black and white or color.

Additional Options - Proofing options are numerous, and include an online web gallery, proof albums and enlarged proofs. A large variety of album and card options are available, as is a pricing discount when ordering many copies of the same image. Please call if you have any questions, need any further information or would like to see a portfolio.

Some More Information - Sittings usually last about one hour, depending on light, weather and the cooperation of young children. As far as clothing during the shoot is concerned, please wear whatever makes you most comfortable. If you do not have a preferred shooting location of your own, I know many great spots, am always on the lookout for more, and will gladly discuss the options with you. I usually shoot in the late afternoons and evenings, to take advantage of the nice light.
