FAQ
where are you based and do you travel?
I am based in Cincinnati, Ohio, but regularly shoot elsewhere in Ohio, as well as Kentucky and Indiana. Locations longer than an hour away from me will incur an extra charge to fund my road trip snack stash.
what is your pricing?
Please email me for my pricing for regular sessions, events, and weddings.
where do you shoot your sessions?
Everywhere! I am an on-site photographer, so I shoot in people's homes, local parks, city streets, residential farms; basically anywhere me and my camera are allowed. If you would like your session to be in a studio, there are local studios that rent by the hour that we can check out.
do you give us rights to the photos?
Printing rights, yes. Copyrights, no. Printing rights allow you to print the photos as many times as your heart desires, but keeping the copyright allows me to maintain ownership of the images I create.
(not as) FAQ
do you have a favorite session to shoot?
This is a trick question, like, "do you have a favorite kid?" I love all the sessions I do for different reasons, but I will say that any session that includes more of you doing something, whether that's playing with your dog or finger painting with your kids or proposing to the love of your life, those will always be at the top of my list. The tiny, often overlooked details that shine through during those sessions are a big part of why I love doing photography so much.
how long have you been taking photos?
If the boxes full of disposable camera prints shelved in my parents basement is any indication, a long time. But taking photos of things aside from my impressive stuffed animal collection, about 2012 is when the first person asked me to come take photos of her daughter (this is all your fault Melissa)
is this book always better than the movie?
Hands down, and that's coming from someone who loves movies. But I will say that I can usually appreciate them independently, unless I read the book right before I see the movie.
