This is a collaborative art form where we work together to bring your vision to life through carefully crafted compositions. Each shot is meticulously planned and executed, with live tethered viewing so you can see the magic unfold in real-time, while we fine-tune styling, lighting, and every detail to perfection. This hands-on, creative process takes time to ensure each image is uniquely yours and exceeds your expectations.
Rather than rushing to meet an arbitrary number, I focus on capturing the quality and artistry that each moment deserves—giving you a collection of images that truly reflect the magic of your session. Every shoot is unique, and so is the creative process behind each image. When the light is just right and the moment feels perfect, some images come together quickly and effortlessly. Other shots require time to carefully compose, build, and shape the light until everything aligns beautifully.
A 30% cost sharing fee is added for each additional party — this is a licensing fee for their use of the photos. Need help determining what each party will pay? The calculator tool below splits the total cost for each party. With cost sharing, everyone pays a fair share and has access to professional photography. Go ahead and give it a try!
Each package comes with a broad usage license that allows you to use the images for any purpose, without any restrictions on how or where you use them. The only condition is that you do not distribute or share the photos with others who have not obtained a license directly from me.
All packages include standard retouching to enhance the appearance of your photos! This will include compositing multiple frames for more dynamic and visually appealing images with greater depth and detail, colour correction for accurate and natural-looking colours, and cleanup for removing minor distractions, such as light switches, motion detectors, power outlets, cords, clutter, dust, stains, and other blemishes on walls, floors, and furniture.
For removing large objects or intricate cleanup, I offer advanced retouching for an additional rate of $75 per hour on top of my included standard retouching. If you require this type of retouching, please contact me for a custom quote and estimated turnaround time.
I'm based in Minneapolis, MN. For assignments outside of a 30 mile radius, a travel fee of 75¢ / mi will be added to the total cost. For assignments outside of Minnesota, travel expenses will be calculated based on the location, duration, and logistics. Please contact me for a personalized quote regarding travel requirements — expenses such as airfare, accommodation, and meals will be invoiced separately.
