MY STYLE
My style is fun, quirky and full of laughter. I truly believe that photography is a way of capturing a moment and time that might easily be forgotten. During your session I ask that you be prepared to relax and have fun. I do my best to capture the shot and at times you might, actually, will see me climbing a tree or laying in the sand. My aim is to provide you with images that capture the essence of you and result in portraits that make you smile each time you look at them.
BUSINESS HOURS
Our regular business hours are 9am to Sunset Mondays to Fridays and 10am to Sunset on Sundays. However, if you are unable to schedule during that time we can schedule outside these hours.
YOUR SESSION
Be prepared to spend up to 2 hours at your session. This allows us to relax and not feel rushed. If you are running late please give us a call. If you are more than 15 minutes late without notifying us, we will assume you are not coming and your deposit will be forfeited. Please only bring those people being photographed as too many people can be distracting. We understand if you wish to bring someone along to help care for little ones while they are not being photographed.
We offer on location sessions that can be held inside or outside, in your home or at an alternative location. Please discuss your choice of location with us as the time of day will effect where you can go. If you are unsure we can suggest several locations.
EXCLUSIVE PHOTOGRAPHER
Please do not bring your own camera, camcorder or any other recording devices to your session, or allow any family members to do so. If this situation occurs, the photographer reserves the right to terminate the session. If your session is terminated in this way, there will be no refund given.
CANCELLATION/RESCHEDULLING
If the need arises to cancel your appointment please do so over the telephone at least 48 hours prior to your session. Your deposit is transferrable only if you reschedule your appointment immediately. Sessions should be rescheduled within a 3 month period, dependent on photographer’s availability.
If you, or anyone being photographed, are feeling sick we do suggest rescheduling. Sick people generally do not enjoy being photographed and this will show in your portraits.
RE-SHOOTS
Reshoots are offered at the discretion of the photographer only and will not incur an additional session fee. We do not offer to reshoot for unfortunate personal choices such as hair, clothing, etc.
DISCOUNTS & PROMOTIONS
From time to time we will run special promotions. These sessions are run for a limited time only and session spots fill up fast. If all session slots are full the photographer is under no obligation to extend the promotion or match the offer past the expiration date.
RETOUCHING
All images receive basic retouching. We only retouch temporary things such as stray hairs, spots, acne, etc. If it is permanent, such as a birthmark or scar we will not retouch or remove it unless specifically asked. This is advanced retouching and may incur an additional fee of $50/hour.
GRAPHIC DESIGN SERVICES
We design all additional items ourselves. When ordering greeting cards, etc you will be shown a selection of designs. You may make up to 3 small changes at no charge. Extra changes will be designed at $50/hour.
For session albums you will be required to indicate whether you would like color or black and white images. For coffee table books, the photographer will make the choice based on artistic selection. The client will have a chance to view the coffee table book design before the photographer sends it off to their printing lab.

The selection process is entirely the right of the photographer and part of the custom portrait process.
