Costs might include variables like equipment rental, hired assistants, graphics work, etc. Simple fee + prints (ordered via this site). Getting Your Pictures Your Gallery After processing, your images will be made available in your own gallery, here on the site. It can be password-protected if you wish. You’ll be notified when your photos are ready, usually within 2-4 days. Larger numbers of images, such as for weddings, will take longer to prepare. Ordering Prints and Photo ProductsYou can place photo orders right from your online gallery, at your convenience, and have them sent directly to you. So can your friends and family, if you wish. The site uses a standard secure shopping cart, and accepts credit cards. You may order any time, as many times as you want; your gallery will not expire. Prints are available in wide variety of sizes and styles at very reasonable prices. Many other products, like mugs, tee shirts, greeting cards, calendars, and more are also available. You’ll be impressed with the list! Digital DownloadsFor assignments and some events or portraits in which electronic images are desired, downloads can be made right from the gallery. Pricing for these is dependent on the size and type of use (commercial vs. private license), and will be quoted when the photo shoot is booked. More Info Satisfaction (rather, delight) GuaranteedAll prints and other photo products are fully guaranteed by the pro lab I use; their work is top-quality and the service is fast. I also fully guarantee your satisfaction with my work, from the shots we take to the image processing. Portrait SessionsThe standard session fee covers up to two hours, any local location, and has no limit on the number of poses or outfit changes. I also don't charge extra for more people, pets, or other additions. Please note that I don't provide makeup/stylist services. What if the session turns out to be really short? No problem. If you want just a pose or two, a headshot, or other simple image, it's pretty likely that we won't need much time. For sessions that are less than one hour the fee is reduced to $45. LocationsI shoot entirely on location for the most natural look, and don’t use a studio; however, I have studio equipment that can be set up anywhere for indoor shooting. Name your place; a park, ball field, city setting, home, or just about anywhere you like! I'm always scouting locations and have many to suggest, as well. Wedding NotesThe fee includes up to a full day and evening of shooting an unlimited number of photos for the ceremony, portraits, and reception. For short evening weddings the fee is discounted 25%. Prints can be ordered directly from this site and are priced much lower than most studios. Anyone the couple chooses can directly order prints. Photo books can be built, and there are many photo gifts available, as well. There is no extra charge for pre- and post-wedding consultations or assistance with print orders. There is also no time limit; your gallery will never expire! Please note: I do not discourage your friends and family from taking pictures; the more the merrier! Extra fees apply only for the following: an extra photographer or assistant, or heavy photo editing/stylizing. In most cases neither of these are necessary; the extra photographer is helpful for very large weddings or complicated wedding programs, but not needed for smaller weddings. Heavy photo editing or stylizing would include hand-painted or other artistic work. Otherwise, normal editing (cropping, lighting adjustments, etc.) are included in the fee. For non-local weddings, I can travel if my schedule allows; see Travel below. Travel and IncidentalsThere is no charge to have me travel anywhere within 15 miles of Port Columbus Airport. For points further than that it's $0.50/mile. If you want me to travel really far, you'll need to cover the travel costs, but I'll do my best to keep it cheap. At this time I'm not available for international travel, but may be someday. On the Scene and Walk-Ups As I attend various events I’m almost always shooting pics. It could be my son's soccer game, a parade, or just about anything. From time to time I’ll post galleries of these so others can order prints, too. Check the News/Blog page for announcements about these. Also, if I'm shooting where you are, such as at the zoo or an event, and you'd like pictures taken, I do accept "walk ups" and don't charge a session fee since I'm already there. I'll just need contact info to let you know when the images are posted and ready for purchase. Feel free to contact me any time with questions about these or other services!
