Session Fees

Our Family Portrait Session Fees include photography time (usually about an hour) and basic proofing - which includes image culling, color and contrast adjustment, cropping and general enhancement for proof presentation.

If you have more questions about our Family Portrait Sessions, we suggest reading this page - it is a list of the most common questions regarding our Family Portraits.

The following session fees apply when we are photographing more than one Family in the same session - these must be in the same location at the same time in order to qualify for the discounted session rates.

*Travel Fees & Accomodations - these are charged only in the case of needing a flight, rental car and/or hotel while traveling for portraits. No markup is added to these fees - we will bill only what we pay for them.

Family Portrait Products

We offer a range of custom products.

All of our enlargements are custom prints - every single image is adjusted for best printing through exposure and contrast adjustment, custom cropping, color balancing, custom dodging and burning, retouching, etc. Our goal is to produce the absolute best prints possible.

PRINT MOUNTING
All of our prints 8x10 or larger are mounted on an acid free, artists mount board for ease of handling and framing, unless otherwise requested. Prices for packages and prints are the same, regardless of whether they come mounted or not.

Single Image Packages

Our Single Image packages are multiple prints of a single image. These packages are useful when you know you want multiple prints of the same image.

If you would like more prints of that image, we do offer a larger single image package.

Multiple Image Packages

Create your own package combination with up to the number of different images listed below.

The idea behind our multiple image packages is a simple one, though we get a lot of questions about how they work. The simplicity is this: choose three images, then select which sizes/quantities you would like for those images. They should add up to the following:

The simplest example is that you could choose to have (8) Wallets, (2) 5x7s and (2) 8x10s of each image, as well as a single 11x14 wall portrait of one of the three images.

However, you can split those quantities up any way you like - you could choose to have all 24 wallets of one of the images, and then split up the 5x7s and 8x10s of the other two images, etc.

We also offer a larger package of six images which can be customized in the same fashion:

Ala Carte Enlargements

If you want to customize your order beyond our packages, you can order individual prints on an ala carte basis.

Remember - all enlargements are printed by a professional lab on professional grade photographic paper. Prints 8x10 and larger are mounted on artists archival board for easier handling, presentation and framing.

Custom Print Quotes

If you are looking for a custom quote on a number of copies of the same print (for announcement, engagement or greeting card purposes), be sure to get in touch with us so that we can give you a quote for the size and quantity of prints needed!

Canvas Prints.

Like our standard enlargements, our canvas prints are printed by a professional lab on professional grade photographic paper. However, rather than mounting on archival mount board, these prints are specially printed on artist's canvas stretched over a wooden frame. The result is a wonderful print that has a timeless presenation.

'Digital Oil' Paintings

Our Digital Oil paintings are a very special item. Before printing, the images is digitally repainted by hand to re-create a classic painted appearance.

A few samples of our digital paintings can be seen here:

At web resolution, the fine detail of the painting can be hard to see, so here are a few pieces of the same images at full size:

These images are first digitally hand painted and then printed onto stretched canvas for a beautifully classic presentation.
