Photography Rates

2010 marks ten years of professional photography for me.  During this time I have avoided paid work, intending to focus on my art.  Starting in January 2010 I have started accepting paid jobs.  My goal is to focus on fun, artistic portraitures but I am open to discussing your needs (commerical, events, weddings etc).

Expectations

  • The shoot will start at the predetermined time.  You should be prepared to shoot at that time.   This means that wardrobe, hair and makeup should be done.
  • Photoshoots are not opportunities to get "friendly" with the photographer.  I don't mind shooting couples doing whatever it is that couples do but a shoot is a professional arrangement and it will be kept that way.
  • 50% payment is due in advance to book the shoot.  Refunds will not be provided for cancellations within 24 hours of the shoot and no-shows.
  • Payment of the balance is due at the start of the shoot.  It is my duty to take awesome pictures.  It is not my duty to chase people for payment.
