Note: I've wound down my photography business. I may be taking a limited amount of seniors in 2024, but I'm still working out the details and pricing of that. I should have more figured out in the spring. Thank you!
Congratulations on reaching your senior year! This marks one of the most important stages of your life. Let's celebrate with images as unique and beautiful as you are. Below you'll find my portfolio and packages/pricing.
Following your session, I'll carefully edit and upload your images to a gallery. If you chose Package 1 or 2, you'll then be able to select a number of images for me to lightly retouch (unless you don't want me to) and for you to download, share, and print as you see fit. If you find yourself falling in love with more images, additional digital files and professional-quality prints can be purchased directly through your online gallery.
If instead you chose Package 3, you'll receive all of the files in your gallery. You'll also be able to select a number of images to be retouched, if you'd like.
All included/purchased files come with full print rights, and prints are also available for purchase through me. Any online orders for prints will be shipped directly to you, and files will be available to download via your online gallery.
I love to tailor every session to what makes you unique, so if you'd like we can either discuss things via email or set up a meeting (Zoom, phone, or in-person) to go over any specifics you may want.

FAQ
What is light retouching?
Light retouching deals with the few biggest problem spots on the image. That could be a blemish or two, a couple of really annoying stray hairs, teeth whitening, etc.
Note that this isn't full retouching, which you can purchase later on select images if you choose. That's a full 20-30 minutes of time per image, which wouldn't exactly be economical to provide by default! That said, light retouching will absolutely be enough for most photos and I usually only recommend full retouching for photos that are going to be printed very large.
While my goal for any retouching is to look like nothing was done at all, if you'd actually prefer that nothing is actually done just let me know and I can skip it.
Can we have a meeting prior to my session?
Absolutely! We can go over details, locations, and any ideas you may have. Just let me know if you'd like to get it set up. We can do a Zoom meeting, phone call, or even meet in person if you'd prefer. Otherwise if you just want to go over things via DM/email that's perfectly fine as well.
Do you have limits on the number of outfit changes/locations?
Absolutely not. You can do however many outfit changes or locations that you'd like to fit into your session time. For a 2 hour session, most seniors do ~4 outfit changes and 2-3 locations.
What locations can we use?
We're lucky to have some pretty great spots in the area that I use regularly, and I may have differing suggestions depending on the time of day and what season it is. All that said, the best locations are ones that are important to you, and I can make pretty much anywhere work.
PS: I alone have access to the prettiest spot on Green Lake!
Can you incorporate my pet/other interests?
I'd love to! Pets, sports, instruments, hunting, cars etc. are all things I regularly do. Whatever your interests are I'd love to incorporate it, though if you think it's going to be something complex we should definitely chat about it before your session.
If you're all about swimming/lakes, portraits in the water are practically my specialty.
Can I upgrade my package after the shoot?
You can upgrade from Package 2 to 3 only immediately after (or sometime before) your session. There are no upgrades after image delivery, sorry.
