Each session comes with a guaranteed minimum (20+, 25+, depending on the package), but I don’t gatekeep. If the shots are strong, they’re yours — I include every winner in your final gallery.

Turnaround is usually within 2–3 weeks. Rush delivery is available for an additional fee if you need them sooner (see Add-Ons in the Sessions & Pricing section).

A 50% retainer is required to hold your date. This secures your session and covers planning time. The remaining balance is due the day before the shoot. Retainers are non-refundable but may be transferable if you need to reschedule with proper notice.

We’ll work together to reschedule — life happens. I build in flexibility for weather or emergencies, especially for outdoor or destination shoots.

Absolutely. You don’t need a full concept to start — we’ll talk through ideas and build something together that fits your vibe, comfort level, and story.

Yes, but not directly as part of a package. All galleries are delivered digitally, but you’ll have access to a print store right from your gallery — order whatever you want, whenever you're ready with no obligation.

September and October in Salem are wild — heavy foot traffic, limited/higher priced parking, and huge demand. I plan extra time and location scouting into every session so you still get quality results, even in the chaos.
