A:  Session fees include shooting time and as many locations as you'd like! Session fees cover artistic ability, equipment, editing, time, and lots service perks during your session (like transportation and snacks.)  Bonus: the studio will submit your student's yearbook photo directly to the school.

Q: what do I get for my session fee?

A: I limit kids to 4 places. (unless they book a second day of shooting!) I have shot most places in the Pittsburgh Area and I am always up for a new adventure. Does your child love Phipps? How about the yellow bridges? How about more local places in Sewickley? I want to go to the places that mean the most to your student.

Q: where can they have their shoot?

A: This really depends on a couple of factors. Does your school have a yearbook deadline? If so we need to plan a session at least a month before that deadline. Pittsburgh is beautiful in the summer fall and even the winter! What is your child's favorite season?

Q: when is the best time of year to Shoot?

A: Super simple! When you fill out a contact form I will call you. I will let you know my available dates during that phone call. You can retain for $250 through a quick link, and then you're on my books! Your retainer fee is non-refundable. 

Q: how do I get onto your calendar?

A:  This is when we sit down in the studio and look at all of your students portraits on the huge TV without watermarks. I put three to four personalized collections together for every student. A collection may have large  of wall art, custom curated albums, and digital files.

Q: what is a reveal appointment?

A: You will be able to purchase them both inside of collections and À la cart for the first time at your reveal appointment. Your collections will be available for two weeks after your reveal. You will always have the option to purchase anything à la cart until the end of May your students graduating year.

Q: how do I get my finished images?

A: My best selling product is a 10" x 10" leather bound custom curated Photo album. I am a full service printing Portrait studio! I can make 40x60 framed canvas, and any size you can imagine custom framed portraits. I also offer graduation announcements loose prints and some other fun gifts!. I have an entire wall of frame choices to pick from! 

Q: what sorts of products do you sell?

A: I am pretty good at getting most kid to buy into their senior portraits during their zoom call.  I love to chat on the phone with a mom, and I find a face-to-face zoom with even the most surly teenagers generally helps bring them around. Asking them questions about what they want to see in their finished images and what they value normally wins them over!

Q: how do you get my reluctant student to participate?

A: I have traveled in the past. I have taken photos in Michigan, Florida & Hilton Head Island. I would be willing to travel as long as my travel expenses were paid. I am planning some bold adventures for the class of 2027... Stay tuned!

Q: do you travel? Let's do a beach sess!!
