Creation Fee:

The creation fee is a one time $100 charge that covers the photographer’s time and talent to create beautiful, lasting art work that you will treasure forever. It includes the time spent selecting and preparing the images from your session that you will be shown as "proofs". The creation fee covers up to two hours of photo session time. Additional time is available at $50 per hour, pro-rated to the half hour. There is no extra cost for on-location photo sessions within 7 miles of the studio. Outside of that radius, travel charges of $1/mile apply (measured between studio and location). Prints are not included in the creation fee. Massachusetts state sales tax is additional.

A reduced creation fee is available if you just need some quick in-studio portraits. Please inquire about pricing.

Portrait Packages:

Our packages are designed to give you the highest value for your purchase while still giving you an unlimited selection of portrait sizes and quantities so you get just what you want. Each package entitles you to a print credit that you can apply as you wish. To use your print credit, decide what print sizes you want and how many of each size and which print finish you want each print to be. Then look up the price in the Print Prices Table below. The print credit can also be used for extra retouching, framing, gift items, and purchase of image files. You may exceed your print credit, of course, and can simply pay the additional cost at time of the print order. Each package includes a number of images from which you can choose your prints. You may choose more images for your prints than are included in the package at a cost of $10 per extra image. Massachusetts state sales tax is additional.
