Weddings and Events
Each day is unique and special. I love to document those unique moments that slip by so quickly. What’s left after the music fades, the flowers wilt and the delicious food is gone? The photographs! You will have the pictures to look back on and relive the day again and again. It’s both an honor and a gift to be a part of these times in life.
Fun, creative, beauty, quality, comfort, ease and humor. It can make or break your day when it comes to photographing. It’s your magical day after all.
Wedding coverage starts at $2,500, including seven hours of photography. Contact me for details and availability. I offer different packages for different budgets, at competitive rates.
Available for international travel.

Portrait Session $250
Your session fee includes a 1.5-2 hour custom shoot of your immediate family in your home or an alternate location (within 30 miles of the 93105 zip code), and 50-100 artistically-processed images presented in a private online slideshow. A $75 print credit is included with this session.
Mini Session $150
A 30 minute photo shoot and about 10 fully edited images presented in an online slideshow.
Birthday Parties $350
Do you want to offer your friends a party favor that they’ll never forget? Have your child’s birthday party documented. I will not only provide you with wonderful photos of your own kids, but also of their friends, plus entertainment. Thinking of hiring a clown or a magician? Think again, the children will enjoy the goofy photographer just as much, or more. And their parents will appreciate the gift of a photo session of their kid/s and their friends. The fee includes 2-2.5 hours of shooting and 50-100 edited images in an online slideshow. This packet is the best bargain. It’s like having many photo sessions for the price of of one and a third.
