What does your session fee include?

The session fee covers a number of things. You are paying for my time and talent at the session, time to edit your portraits, design your creations, upload your album, complete your order, package and perfect your order, etc. Remember all portraits meet or exceed current archival photographic standards and will be sure to last for generations to come.

Where can I have my session?

Seniors!!! I am up for just about anything!  I have several places I use on a regular basis – Or your hometown may make a fantastic backdrop! Make a suggestion and I am sure we can make it happen!  Whatever fits your personality.    2 of my favorite places are Spring Grove Cemetery and Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park!

 

Can I bring my friend, pet or boy/girl friend?

Yes, If they are a senior…check out my BFF packages. I will take some pictures of you and your friend, pet and boyfriend/girlfriend, but my main focus is on YOU!!

 

What happens if I am sick?

Let’s reschedule! I want you to be extremely happy with your portraits and  get the absolute best!

 

What if it rains?

We can reschedule your session if you have booked an outdoor session. However, I love CLOUDY days!  If it’s tornado weather let’s reschedule …My hall bathroom is not big enough for everyone to pile in.

 

How long do your sessions last?

The average session runs about 2 hours.  If you are doing a outdoor session and studio session plan on 3 and half hours with travel time.

 

Can I bring my camera or my camcorder too?

No, It gets way too confusing when more than one camera is involved. So please leave your camera at home.

 

Will I get sneak peeks on Facebook or your blog?

Yes-  Once your minimum purchase has been met.. I will be glad to put several of your favorite images on both!

 

 What is your turnaround time?

Your gallery should be online within two weeks, sometimes earlier!  Print orders are usually back within 2 weeks… However, custom session books, canvases and other products can take a little bit longer.

 

Do you accept credit cards?

Absolutely!!! Beginning this year.. My new client proofing system will accept payment through PayPal.   PayPal accepts: Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. Checks, money orders and cash are preferred!

 

Do you take payments on portrait orders?

Yes.  For orders exceeding $400, installments may be made in 2 or 3 installments.  I have no problem making special arrangements for those needing help spreading out the costs. After payments have been made in full you will receive your complete portrait order.

 

Do you do any further edits to photos? 

I am an artist and these are my creations. All images shown are the final edit, noting that crops will be different depending on image size, and that any further edits will be done at a charge of $45/hour.

 

 Do you offer Refunds?

Due to the custom nature of photography, refunds aren’t allowable on printed items or session fees.
