Sessions

An hour outside, composed around you.

Seniors, couples and families on Florida's Atlantic coast. I plan each session around the people in it and the lines of the place, and keep my directions small so nobody looks posed. Booking October sessions.

Packages

Seniors

An hour, two or three looks, and pictures of who you are right now.

Couples

Time together, with the space between you as part of the picture.

Families

Everyone in the frame, including the dog, grouped loosely instead of in stiff rows.

Mini sessions

Twenty minutes, one spot, a handful of favorites, edited as carefully as a full session.

Prices on request · Book a session

Every session includes a private gallery you can view for as long as I'm in business. Your photos are private to you unless you tell me otherwise.

How a session works

  1. Tell me about you.

    Send a note through the inquiry form: who's in the picture and what you have in mind. Once we set a date, I send you the meeting spot privately.

  2. Just enough direction, then room to be yourself.

    I place you in the frame and tell you where to look when it matters. The rest is walking, talking and laughing, and that's where the best frames are.

  3. About two weeks later, a text from me with your private gallery.

    Every frame is finished by hand before it reaches you: the crop, the color, the tone, and black and white where it suits.

Booking and the retainer

A retainer holds your date and goes toward your session. If it isn't safe to shoot, we reschedule for free.

A session is confirmed once the retainer is paid. After we pick a day, I send a link to pay it, and the confirmation with the meeting spot and time comes to you privately by email. The spot is never posted anywhere public.

If the person being photographed is under 18, a parent or guardian is part of the booking, signs any release and receives the gallery too.

Delivery

About two weeks after your session, you get a text from me with your private gallery. That time goes into the edit, and I do every frame myself. You can view it for as long as I'm in business. Downloads are open for one year, and I can reopen them any time.

How to prepare, and what to wear

Tell me what you have in mind, and I'll start looking for the frame.
