I know it sounds like a non-answer, but it depends on a variety of factors ranging from the scope of the project, what sort of deliverables you require, usage rights, and more.
I charge on a per-project basis rather than than hourly. This provides you with a flat, "no surprises" fee.
In general, you will find that I charge neither the most nor the least. When you hire me, you can expect superior value delivered through beautiful images and a no-hassle, professional experience.

YES! I have done product photography, photographed life-sized dinosaur sculptures, works of art, surgical instruments, and real estate. I have photographed dentists’ and doctors’ practices and manufacturing plants.
I’ve documented post-tornado clean-up efforts for utility services. I have shot rap concerts and classical recitals. Marathons, local 5Ks, NCAA and pro sports. I have experience with private parties, grade school graduations, galas, conferences, and more.
Have an idea and need some photos? Get in touch and let’s talk about how I can help.

In order to lock in the date for your shoot, I require a deposit. The balance is due once your images are posted to your secure gallery.
Your deposit guarantees my availability for your shoot and protects my business from last-minute cancellations and no-shows.
I also understand however that things happen. Should you need to reschedule, I will work with you to find a mutually agreeable date.

As a small business, every client's satisfaction is of paramount importance to me. Simply put, I can't afford to have you dissatisfied with your images and will do everything possible to make sure that isn't the case.
Due to the custom nature of each project, all sales are final and once images are downloaded, I cannot offer any additional editing or changes to the images.
For headshots, I am confident you’ll love your new headshot. If you don't, I'll redo it for free. Yes, you read that correctly.
Happiness can be fleeting however, so there are a few guidelines:
I cannot offer retakes for wishing you’d made different choices for clothes, hair, etc.
Cannot be redeemed once an image has been downloaded.
No refunds will be given; this guarantee will be honored with a reshoot only.
Any reshoots will be scheduled on a mutually agreeable date as close to the original shoot date as possible.

No problem! Feeling uncomfortable in front of the camera is common. A big part of my job is to help you overcome that. My goal is to create a relaxed, fun environment as I coach you through the process.

Absolutely. Prior to becoming a full-time professional photographer, I had a long career in sales and marketing. This background helps me as a photographer deliver the sort of content you need and that will resonate with your audience.

I am based in St. Louis, MO (Let’s go Blues! and Vamos CITY!), but available to work anywhere. One of the wonderful things about St. Louis is we’re centrally located. I’ve helped clients in Nashville, Dallas, Louisville, Kansas City, and points between. Have camera, will travel.

While it can vary depending on factors such as my schedule, the amount of editing your photos require, etc., I typically deliver my clients’ images to them WITHIN 48 HOURS. When we lock in the date of your shoot, we will agree upon a delivery date. For sports and events, JPEG images can be delivered straight out of the camera in “real time” if needed.
