Prices & Info

Portrait sessions don't have to be a hassle. I take a very simple approach; I'll be shooting your session with a hand-held camera, using available light. That means I don't spend any of our time lugging big equipment around, so our set goes smoothly, and you get beautiful, affordable photos!

Your custom session may be held on-location, at your home, or in my cozy studio at 19 Second Street NE, downtown Mason City. Special travel pricing is available for those outside of the Mason City area.

There's never a "per person" fee, you'll never pay extra for retouching of your photos, and there is NO minimum print purchase required. You choose the session that best suits your needs, and order only the prints that you want. Easy. Peasy. Lemon squeezy.

Hours of Availability: Mon - Thur Evenings: By Appointment | Sat - Sun: 2:00p - 5:00p

The last Saturday of every month is Studio Saturday. Join me in the studio for specials on artwork, gift certificates, and walk-in Mini-Mini sessions. Relax, have a treat from local bakery, Fat Kid Cakes, and enjoy an informal sampling of Iowa wines.

**A FEW THINGS TO NOTE:**

* Your session is not sold to you as an hourly service. The time estimations given are for planning purposes, only. Oftentimes, we're able to complete the number of shots needed to yield the respective number of proofs your session provides before the time limit expires on your session. I'm not obligated to provide you with a particular length of time on our shoot- only a particular amount of edited proofs.

* I complete all sessions in order of when they were booked. I'm unable to guarantee a specific gallery delivery date unless a rush order is placed. You may request a rush on your portraits for an additional fee of $25, paid in advance.

* I do not offer digital copies of your photos (CD, memory card, jump drive, etc.) I make no exceptions, so please consider this when booking a session with me.

* All current or honorably discharged service members and/or members of law enforcement, fire departments, or first responders: Please enjoy a 15% discount on all services and prints in appreciation of your dedication to our country and communities. Proper credentials will be requested.

* Be sure to click the FAQs link, above, for important details about my services, and contact me with any questions I can answer for you. There is no such thing as a dumb question. If there's something you aren't sure of, just ask. You're not just spending your money with me, you're also spending your time; so it's very important to me that you are making an educated decision when booking. Seriously, you're not going to bother me. Just ask!

Description of Services

Families & Children
I want your sessions to be as personalized as possible, so I never use generic studio props. You're encouraged to bring anything you'd like to your session. Toys, books, blankies, or even small furniture will comfort your child while also personalizing your shoot. Choose from any of the sessions above, or if your child is age 3 or younger, you may opt to "split" the Deluxe Session. This divides your appointment into (3) smaller sessions, so you can follow the advancement of your child throughout the year. The full session fee of $125 is due at the beginning of your first split-session appointment, and still includes a print credit and everything listed in the description above. Please visit the FAQs tab at the top of the page for important info about my photo sessions.

Individuals & Senior Pictures

Choose from any of the above sessions, and bring anything with you that you'd like in the photos. Yearbook submission for seniors is included in the price, but the client is responsible for providing the school's contact info. Please visit the FAQs tab at the top of the page for important info about my photo sessions.

- OR -

You may choose to book the Yearbook Basic Session for your student - $40 Includes (4) studio headshots in a private online gallery, and yearbook submission. This session includes the same quality editing and retouching of proofs as the other sessions, and you'll still have the ability to order prints and packages, however no print credits are included in this session.

I celebrate my community's diversity, and welcome all individuals, couples, and families!

Corporate

Headshots and staff group photos are available at a very affordable rate. I shoot both in-studio or at your location. Pricing includes (2) HD digital poses, both in black & white and in color, along with the full photo release. Perfect for business card photos, advertisements, websites, or for your business Facebook page. Call or click CONTACT ME for a quote!

(I offer FREE local artist, comedian, and musician promo sessions; certain conditions apply.)

Keepsake & Custom Artwork

Custom artwork and Keepsake pieces can be commissioned at no cost. You only pay for the prints or wall art that you want.

Keepsake Art is a great way to memorialize someone, or to commemorate a milestone. Whether it's Grandma's favorite rose bush, your childhood home, or your son's newly issued dog tags, an heirloom-quality artistic rendering will keep those good memories close by. Your Keepsake photos are never made available for sale to anyone else.

Custom Art is perfect if you have a design plan in mind for your home or office, or if you'd like to give artwork as a gift. If you like my artistic style, but don't see something that quite fits what you're looking for, a custom art piece is the way to go!

Of course, I will retain the copyright to any commissioned piece, but anything you purchase

can be removed from my catalog so no one else is able to order it, for a $100 archiving fee, leaving you with a one-of-a-kind piece.
