WEDDING/EVENTS

Average rates $350 - $450 /hr. Detailed pricing guide available for serious inquiries only - no surprises with me, and I respond fairly quickly. All rates/packages include tax. Contract signature and deposit required to secure your date. Event minimums, travel and/or privacy fees may apply. Special pricing may apply for multiple day coverage.

SCHEDULING

All sessions are scheduled via email or DMs once you reach out. Availability is limited, and I recommend booking at least two weeks in advance. Short-notice sessions are rarely available.

LOCATIONS

I photograph at a variety of locations throughout the DFW area, including outdoor, lifestyle, and studio spaces. I also have several go-to locations I love and am happy to help you choose the perfect spot that fits your vision.

TRAVEL FEES

I’m based in Plano, TX. Due to unpredictable DFW traffic, any travel fees are calculated based on time rather than distance. If applicable, I’m always transparent and fair when discussing travel costs.

PAYMENTS

A retainer is required for weddings to secure your date. 100% of Payment for all other sessions is due prior to or on the day of the session. Accepted payment methods include Zelle and cash.

PHOTOGRAPHY IS AN INVESTMENT

With Meaningful Returns

I know budgets are important — especially with how quickly costs add up these days. That’s why I’m upfront about pricing from the start. Many photographers avoid sharing their rates, pushing you to inquire first, only to realize later it’s not the right fit or outside your budget. That’s not how I operate.

My base pricing is clearly listed so you can make an informed decision without pressure or sales tactics. My work stands on its own, and most of my clients find me through referrals and repeat sessions.

I don’t just take photos — I create intentional, timeless portraits designed to be enjoyed, displayed, and passed down. If that’s what you’re looking for, I’d be honored to work with you.
