Pricing
Every number on this page is a placeholder. Replace before publishing.
No tiered packages you need a spreadsheet to compare. One session fee per type, everything included, and I'll tell you straight if a different session type suits you better.
Sessions
Family - $XXX
About ninety minutes, one or two locations, any size group. Including the big, loud, multigenerational ones.
Senior Portraits - $XXX
About two hours, two locations, three outfit changes, no rush.
Couples & Engagements - $XXX
About an hour. Anniversaries, proposals, or just because it's been too long.
Maternity & Motherhood - $XXX
About an hour. Bump sessions and the after.
Newborn - $XXX
In your home, in the first few weeks, on your baby's schedule rather than mine.
What's included in every session
- Roughly XX edited images, delivered in a private online gallery
- Full personal download and print rights - the files are yours
- A pre-session call to sort out location, timing and what to wear
- Scheduling around golden hour, which is the whole point
- Travel anywhere in San Pedro, Palos Verdes and the South Bay
Seniors get closer to XX images, because two locations and three outfits produce more.
Prints and albums
Optional, never pushed. If you want prints I'll help you pick and order them properly - the in-between frames are usually what families end up printing large. Print pricing starts at $XX.
How booking works
- You send me an inquiry and tell me about your people
- I reply within a day with dates that work
- A $XXX retainer holds your date, deducted from the total
- The balance is due the week of the session
- Your gallery arrives within X weeks
A few honest notes
September through November books out first. Senior season and fall family photos land in the same eight weeks every year. If you want fall, ask in spring or summer.
Summer is underrated. Long days, later light, and my calendar actually has room in it.
Weekday evenings are quieter at every location on this coast, and I have more availability. If your schedule allows it, take one.
Rain reschedules free. Coastal fog doesn't - overcast is beautiful light for skin, and I'll shoot right through it.
Not sure which session fits? Just ask. I answer every inquiry personally, usually within a day - and I'd rather point you at the right thing than sell you the expensive one.
