Documentary-style family, pet and event photography in New York City with gentle direction — capturing candid emotion, meaningful details, and the relationships that make a moment yours.
PRIVATE SESSIONS
PRIVATE SESSION RATES
I photograph people in the places that are part of their lives — at home, around the neighborhood, outdoors, or somewhere meaningful to you. The environment becomes part of the story, creating photographs that capture not only the those you love, but the feeling of a particular time and place.

faqs for private sessions
-
Start by sending an inquiry with a little information about what you have in mind. From there, we'll schedule a brief 10–15 minute phone consultation to talk through your vision, who's participating, location, timing, and any questions you may have. It's also a chance for us to make sure we're a good fit.
After our conversation, I'll confirm the session details and final rate by email. If your needs fall outside one of the listed packages, I'll provide a custom quote.
A 50% deposit and signed agreement are required to reserve your session date.
-
Think of it as a short, informal conversation about what you'd like your photographs to feel like—not a complicated planning meeting. We'll discuss the people (and pets!) involved, location ideas, any moments or relationships that are particularly meaningful to you, and anything else I should know before photographing you.
You don't need to arrive with a fully formed concept. I'm happy to help shape the session with you.
-
My sessions are documentary in spirit, with gentle direction when it's helpful. Rather than heavily posing every photograph, I'm looking for genuine interaction, personality, connection, and the small unscripted moments that make the photographs feel like you.
I'll step in with guidance when needed, so you don't need to know what to do in front of the camera.
-
Absolutely. Pets are family and are welcome in family sessions. Just let me know when you inquire how many pets will be joining so we can plan accordingly.
-
Family Session pricing includes up to four people. Additional participants are $50 per person.
For groups of seven or more, please inquire about Event Session pricing so we can determine the appropriate amount of coverage.
-
Yes. We can discuss location during your consultation based on the feeling you're looking for, the people involved, time of day, and other practical considerations.
Sessions within NYC are included in the listed pricing. Travel fees may apply for locations outside New York City, and any applicable fee will be confirmed before booking.
-
I don’t work from a traditional studio. I photograph in places that are part of your lives — at home, around the city, or in a location we choose together. Using real environments and available light creates photographs that feel natural, relaxed and distinctly yours.
-
Final galleries are typically delivered within 2–3 weeks of your session.
The Family Heirloom Session includes priority post-processing with delivery within one week. Any different turnaround time for a custom session or event will be agreed upon before booking.
-
Family Sessions typically include a curated gallery of approximately 30–50 finished images. Event gallery sizes vary depending on the length and nature of the event; the expected range is listed with each package.
I select and individually finish the strongest photographs from your session to create a cohesive final gallery.
-
Yes. Your gallery includes high-resolution digital downloads, and you'll also have the option to order professional archival prints and framed wall art directly through your gallery.
The Family Heirloom Session includes a $200 wall-art credit toward professional archival prints or framed artwork.
-
If you'd like me to continue photographing beyond your reserved event coverage and I'm available to stay, additional coverage is $225 per 30 minutes.
-
Your 50% deposit reserves your date and is non-refundable. If you need to reschedule, your deposit may be transferred once to a new available date with at least 7 days' notice. Cancellations or rescheduling within 7 days may require a new deposit. In the event of severe weather or circumstances that make an outdoor session impractical, we'll work together to select a new date.
