Photo Session Pricing

A $690 retainer is required at the time of booking to reserve your session. This includes your session fee, and $500 of the retainer is applied toward your purchase of images and artwork. There is no minimum purchase required beyond the retainer. Digital and artwork collections begin at $1,200.

We also periodically offer studio specials and seasonal mini sessions—a great opportunity for a shorter session or updated portraits at a lower price point.

Fine Art Albums & Folio Boxes

The albums and folio boxes we offer for images from your photo session are not found anywhere else in the twin cities! Custom crafted in Europe, each album and folio box is custom-designed for your photos. They are absolutely stunning and will be cherished for generations.

Beautifully handcrafted, these albums and folio boxes use quality dye-based inks, providing rich colors and pure shades. The album pages are joined with lay-flat binding, allowing each spread to be uninterrupted. The folio box prints are matted or mounted, ready to display on a ledge or put in a frame.

Both include a presentation box with an option to add a stunning acrylic image cover and a built-in USB drive. A three-album set is available for grandparents to receive their own album.

Wall Art

We offer only the finest products available, with quality fully guaranteed.

Create artwork to display on your walls, a joyful reminder for you and your family for years to come. Included in your session fee is a digital mock-up of artwork showing how it will look in your home. This is invaluable when making decisions about the size and other options.

What to Expect

Every session is unique, but my goal is always the same: to make your experience smooth, enjoyable, and stress-free from beginning to end. You'll receive clear communication, thoughtful guidance, and timely responses throughout. All details—including pricing—are shared upfront, so you can book with confidence.

  • We’ll start with a quick phone or Zoom call so I can learn more about your goals and vision for the session. I’ll walk you through how everything works, answer any questions, and go over pricing and artwork options. There's no pressure—just a relaxed conversation to see if we're a good fit.

  • Once you're ready to move forward, you’ll pay a retainer to secure your session date. I’ll guide you through the next steps and make sure everything is clearly laid out, so you can feel confident and excited for what’s ahead.

  • You’ll receive a session prep guide that covers everything—from what to wear and what to bring, to what to expect on the day of your session. You’ll also receive a detailed product and pricing guide so you can begin planning (and dreaming!) about how you’ll display your beautiful images.

  • Whether in my Minneapolis photo studio or on location, your session is designed to be relaxed and stress-free. I’ll guide you every step of the way so you never have to wonder what to do. We'll create a variety of images—from classic portraits to more natural moments—so you have a rich gallery to choose from.

  • After your session, you’ll receive a link to schedule your Zoom gallery review, which will take place 7–14 days after your session.

    During the gallery review, I’ll walk you through your images and help you select your favorite ones. We’ll also review product and package options for your final purchase and show mockups of albums, wall art, and other keepsakes.

  • Once you purchase your selections, I’ll deliver your images through a private online gallery. From there, you’ll be able to download your files and enjoy long-term access.

    Any products you’ve selected will be created and ordered at this time—delivery timelines vary depending on the item.
