Once you’ve made your decisions to invest your money and hire our services, a $500.00, non-refundable retainer fee and the signed contract are needed to reserve your dates.
The balance is due four weeks before your wedding.
Within three weeks after your wedding, a blog post will be available showcasing several favorite images. It will take approximately 3 months for all your wedding photos to be fully color-corrected and a link to your online gallery will be provided at that point.
Once you finalize the design, the album production will take 2 months. The custom album will be delivered to your home.
Travel expenses are included in the photography services only within New York City and Long Island. Distance greater than 50 miles will require a travel fee. Please contact us for destination weddings. We take pride in the mobility of the services provided and can travel to you, wherever you are.

No. When you return the signed contract and retainer fee, the date is reserved for your wedding and your wedding alone
Engagement
Yes! We cannot stress how important the engagement session is. Having an engagement photo shoot not only allows for us to get to know each other before the wedding, but it also offers the chance for you to get comfortable in front of the cameras. We also get to have fun, visit cool places, and you get some great pictures in the process
An engagement session will be $500 for the first hour and $100 for each additional hour
Engagement shoots have endless possibilities. Most couples prefer to do their engagement shoots at a location that means something special to them as a couple. Others will simply choose a favorite place, or a romantic setting as their shoot location. Some suggested locations are the site of your engagement proposal, your first date, where you first met, or even simply a frequent place you two go on dates.
Both of you should wear clothing that is comfortable and easy to move in. Your clothing choices should reflect who you are as a couple, and they should be something you don’t mind getting a little messy. We will be having a lot of fun and moving around quite a bit, be comfortable. Ladies, if you are dying to wear those beautiful new heels then please bring them with you. You can always bring a pair of flats for comfy walking
Your engagement pictures will include both candid and posed portraits photos. You will want some portrait shots for formal announcements or as a gift for your family or friends. The rest should be candid shots that show you and your partner and your love for each other. I prefer to give visual directions rather than pose the two of you. This keeps your photos looking natural and spontaneous. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me
While there isn’t a set limit, typically a full hour of shooting for an engagement session will produce 75-100 beautifully captured images.
You will be able to view your images through our online gallery by four weeks after the date of your session.
Lifestyle Portraits
Our lifestyle portrait sessions capture the precious moments of life that aren’t necessarily heralded with parties and ceremonies. We do sessions for families, newborns, head shots, and maternity sessions.
Newborn sessions are best when taken within three weeks after the baby is born.
A one-hour session starts at $400 and $100 for each additional hour.
A regular family portrait session is limited to five people. If you wish to have more people in the session, please inquire for a quote.
Yes, we offer a wide variety of services for our portrait sessions.
