Life happens fast. Maybe it feels that way because I've always been a tad sentimental and wanted to hold on to the fleeting moments when all is well and life is just – good. My pictures have always been my most treasured possession. They are tangible reminders of the people and places that I love and the memories we share. They also tell the story of my life, the experiences that have shaped who I am. You can't put a price on that. My passion is to capture a slice of life for you - the details of your wedding day, the relationships that mean the most to you, your child's innocent eyes. These are all times when a picture is worth way more than a thousand words, speaking to the deep places of your soul. So, I'm your photographer if you are bored with the "say cheese" portrait, you like a picture that tells a story, or you just plain love pictures. I look forward to working with you soon!
$225 weekday, $275 weekend A relaxed time tailored to capture your personality and relationships rather than a forced smile. Sessions last from 45 to 90 minutes and can be at your home or another favorite DC-metro location. I'm happy to suggest locations if you don't have one in mind. The Session Fee includes my time to shoot and process your images. Your images will be posted in a password protected gallery for you and your friends and family to view and order. Because the session appointments times are so limited, an additional $50 non-refundable retainer is due at the time the session is scheduled, to reserve your date. If the session is rescheduled by Jan (most likely due to weather) the retainer will apply to the new date. If you cancel the session, for any reason, the retainer will not be returned.
