It is so important to print images in this digital world. Too many times, I have seen digital files corrupted. This is why I have created Collections that include digital files and printed pieces to enjoy. I believe it is essential to have both.
Images aren't an expense; they're an investment. These images are a moment frozen in time forever that you may relive and share. The art we create together will live on for many generations to enjoy.
Be sure to print your digital copies from a professional print lab.
It takes a team of passionate, experienced professionals to craft photo products of the quality my clients have come to expect. The image must be meticulously edited, color-corrected, retouched, and perfected on the photographer's end, and the printing lab must also take great care in its craftsmanship. Many print labs cater directly to consumers, but my clients prefer to order their prints through my labs. All my print products are sourced from professional photo labs and made with museum-grade materials.

Every session begins with an initial consultation to learn more about your photographic needs. This is done either over the phone or through digital communications. I like to get to know my clients a little, know their expectations, and ensure we are a good fit for working together with the same goals in mind. I have a questionnaire that covers everything I need to know, including the names and ages of those to be photographed, interests, professions, and any information I need to start planning your session. It includes what colors, styles, and imagery you are drawn to and what products interest you. And if you are interested, we can set a time for you to visit the studio to get a better idea and feel for the products I offer and what the outcomes of your session will look like.
A non-refundable session fee of $200 is required to book your session. Sessions can be held in my Bonsall Studio or outdoors. Here in Southern California, we have so many options to create beautiful backdrops for our imagery. Session times will vary slightly depending on location. If an outdoor location is desired, I will scout out the best hour of lighting for the session beforehand and adjust as needed.
The fun part! You're all dressed up and looking sharp! I suggest bringing 1-2 additional outfits; it will give you a variety of images. Sessions are approximately 45-one hour long. I love getting a variety of looks in each session. The traditional poses as well as candid shots having fun and relaxing. I encourage bringing along any props that will enhance the photo experience. This can be anything from clothing accessories, such as hats or jackets, to musical instruments.
The photos have been taken, individually and carefully looked at, lightly edited, and are ready to be shown. My client's favorite part of the entire experience is getting to see their beautiful images for the first time. Your Viewing/Ordering appointment will be scheduled 1-2 weeks after the session. This is where you’ll have the opportunity to choose the photographs to be fully edited and choose what you would like to have as prints, albums, canvas, or a variety of other handcrafted photo products I offer. This is your time to ask questions, place orders, and get excited about your images.
Anytime you would like to update your Portraits. As soon as you know you're ready to book, do so! Session times will vary slightly depending on location and time of year. If an outdoor location is desired, I will scout out the best hour of lighting for the session beforehand and adjust as needed. Studio sessions are great because I perfectly control the light for each pose. The time of day does not matter.
Your outfits, I suggest 1-2 additional outfits and accessories to add a little variation. Be sure to pick your clothing to complement your location. There are so many beautiful locations here in Southern California, and we have so many options to create beautiful backdrops for our imagery.
Prices range depending on your photographic needs. Most clients invest between $600 and $1000 for their portrait collection. We offer both full-resolution digital collections and heirloom-quality printed art pieces.
We are a full-service studio which means your portraits can be printed and framed, wrapped in canvas, or arranged in a beautiful heirloom album.
