    Online Gallery

    Every customer receives a complimentary online gallery that they can share with family and friends. You can select up to 20 of your favorite images from the shoot, I will process them, and then send you the link to your gallery on our Pictage service. You can then email the link to anyone you wish.

    Consultation

    I like to meet with the clients to go over the details of the shoot, and to give me an idea of the direction you want to go. If the shoot is going to be at your home, then it is a gret opportunity for me to survey the area to find the best lighting and composition. We can also discuss any questions you might have about clothing, posing, etc. If you have not quite made up your mind about using our services, the consultation is the perfect time for you to decide. I will bring a variety of portraits, and other samples for you to review.

    Cancellations

    If for any reason you need to cancel your session, I ask that you do so 48 hours prior to your scheduled date. Late cancellations will forfeit your retainer fee.
