"What do you charge?" is almost always one of the first questions a client asks when researching for a photographer. However, "What kind of quality can I expect for my investment?" should be one of the first. Having a portrait created of your children, capturing the precious moments of a wedding, graduation, or special event is a worthwhile investment. We all place value on our purchases, but, very few purchases are ones that will bring joy and sweet memories to us for a lifetime. Most investments last only a very short time. Understandably, you want the best price for the best quality. My philosophy is, "you get what you pay for." I strive to provide my clients with the very best experience they can have before, during, and after their photographic session. This is a very competitive business and I can assure you that my years of experience (more than 21 years), the education, and the passion I possess for photography will not be the same as any other individual. My work is unique to me as is that of other artists in the field. With that said you can expect the following average investment:

Weddings - expect to pay a minimum of $2,000 for a six hour obligation. All images are provided to my clients in high resolution jpeg format on disc.

Events/Parties - expect to pay a minimum of $475.00 for two hours of coverage.

Studio Sessions start at $175.00. Ask about special rates, however, for newborns. Repeat clients and referrals receive discounts as well.

Formal Portraiture (studio and location) - average investment is around $700.00

Keepsake purchases, such as memory books, musical CDs, etc., - expect to pay an average of $350.00

Corporate Head Shots/Commercial Photography - it is difficult to average this item as the size of the organization, time needed, number of individuals, and more all require specific pricing. Expect to pay a minimum, however, of $475.00
