Booking

Let's find
a date

Pick the kind of session you have in mind, tell me roughly when, and I will come back within a day or two with a time and a price. Everything here is negotiable.

Enquiry

Tell me
what you need

The more you put here, the more useful my reply will be. If you are not sure what you need yet, say that. Half of these conversations start with "I don't really know how this works."

What happens next

  1. I reply within a day or two with availability and a firm quote.
  2. We agree a time and a place. No deposit for small sessions.
  3. We shoot. I edit. Your gallery goes up within a week.

Prefer email?

No deposit, no obligation. I will write back before anything is booked.

Questions

Asked often

How far will you travel?
Chicago is covered by the listed price. Beyond the city I charge travel at cost and tell you the number before you commit.

When do I get the photos?
A preview set within 48 hours, the full edited gallery within a week. Faster if you have a deadline, say so.

What if it rains?
We reschedule, no charge. Overcast light is usually better anyway; genuine downpours are not.

Can I print the photos myself?
Yes. Personal-use print release comes with every session. If you would rather I handled printing, the print shop does that too.

Do you do student rates?
Yes. Mention it when you write. I am a student too.

I hate being photographed.
Most people say this. It is mostly a matter of not being rushed, and of me not making you stare down a lens for an hour.
