Photo Sessions
Here's Carly and Randy's family looking for the first time at the album from our session together. Make sure you turn the sound on so you can hear the kids' hilarious commentary! To see the photos from this session, check out the blog post.
Photo Pricing
I believe that photos deserve a physical presence in our lives, where we can see them every day (to make us happy!) and remind our children of their place in the family. This is why I place such an emphasis on wall art and albums. However, purchase of physical products is not required.
Session Fees
My session fee covers your pre-session consultation, the time spent with you during your session, editing of your images, and a gallery of full resolution images. 50% is due at time of booking to reserve your session date.
1 hour session: $600
A short session like this is a little more directed than my usual work, to make the most of your time.
2 hour session: $900
Just right for capturing a small slice of your real life.
4 hour session: $1300
This is my favorite type of session because it gives us all time to settle in, so I can pause to look deeper for amazing images and you can be even more yourselves.
Full day-in-the-life sessions and multi-session packages available for returning clients
Artwork
Products are sold a la carte starting at $600 for albums. Wall art and print collections start at $250, and of course you can purchase loose prints as well.
If you know before your session that you want to order physical products, you can pre-purchase product credit at a 10% discount.
For more specific pricing info, please share what you have in mind for the session and how you imagine enjoying your photos.
My heirloom albums and art come from an amazing lab in Italy. I've compared the products from dozens of companies and found that this is the best color reproduction, the most touchable paper, and the highest quality framing and binding.
How does this work?

Get in touch with
Lifetime Lens!
Let's talk about how I can help capture your memories. Often I come by my prospective client's home to meet the family, show my album and art samples, and to brainstorm about what would be fun or meaningful to preserve. We can chat by phone or Zoom instead if you prefer.

We meet at your home or another favorite location for your shoot. You'll find me to be flexible and genuine, and kids love me! Pretty soon you'll forget all about the camera. Just live your life.
After we part, I sift through all your photos and carefully edit the best of them. For most sessions, I also draft an album and mock up display art designs to show you.

If you would like printed products, I will come back to your home with all your lovely photos a couple weeks later. This is when you'll decide what form your memories will take, based on my gorgeous album and wall art samples. You can order products exactly suited to your taste and the style of your home. This is also a great time to think about gifts for your family.
4
Once your albums and art are printed, I'll hand deliver them for safekeeping, and can even help get the art on the wall if you like. I come to you at every step. The whole experience is designed to reflect and fit into your busy life. Whether or not you order physical products, you'll have an online gallery you can share with family and friends.

Update: Covid-19
I am pro-science and fully vaccinated and boosted against Covid-19.
I'm not wearing a mask all the time anymore, but please don't hesitate to ask me to wear one if it makes you more comfortable. If Covid rates in the area go up, I may request that we all take rapid antigen tests the day of the session.
