Photography Fees

"One day that’s all we’ll be: A Photo" 

- Bill Shapiro, Life Magazine

Thank You

so much for your interest

in my photography.

My current focus is on my

fine art photography practice.

I have limited time 

for photo assignments.

I am dedicated to the medium of photography and visual storytelling.

 If you are looking for someone with a unique point of view 

who can photograph experiences 

with a sense of spontaneity and authenticity, I'm your girl.

“A good wedding photograph will reignite the feeling that it records. 

It will trigger the other senses; 

make you recall the sounds or the smells. 

Couples say that the day goes by in a blur, 

it’s our role as the photographer to bring things back into focus.”

- Lisa Devlin

"The velvet hand...the hawk's eye."

2022 - 2023 FEES

Editorial Style

I am a natural light, candid and cinematic/documentary Photographer.

I photograph within Canada.
Fiercely carefree, curious and interested in everything and everyone.

I shoot digital with various cameras - (mostly) little and (sometimes) big guns. 
(See my thoughts about camera-equipment-tools at the very bottom)

I prefer to shoot early morning or late afternoon when sun is lower.

I love to shoot outdoors or in a room filled with natural light.
Beach, Streets, Gardens - Urban or Countryside. You decide!

My hourly fee is $250 (within 1 hour of my studio in Wasaga Beach, Ontario)

I will travel anywhere in the Canada. (this is an additional fee)
My magazine-inspired shoots include my pre-planning, producing, time and talent 
PLUS my post-production | digital tech expertise.

I retain copyright of my work. A model and/or location release may be required.

Portraits - Candid & Cinematic

Editorial/Documentary Style

$250

Portrait Sessions - 1 hour

You will have B&W and colour images - typically 20-25 great shots will be yours from shoot.

All images are yours* to do what you wish! 
You may share and print the images; privately, with others, online and on social media.

*I retain copyright of my work. A model and/or location release may be required.

Weddings – Candid & Cinematic

Editorial/Documentary Style

$4000

I book 3 weddings per season per year

$4000 for the entire day and several hundred professionally edited images.

I photograph weddings within Canada.

Travel Expense & Accommodation are an additional fee. 
(If further than 1 hour from Wasaga Beach, Ontario)

Note:  Together we may assess that a wedding's specific photographic needs WILL require an additional Photographer (from my team), this will be an additional $1000.00 + Canadian travel expense and accommodation for that extra shooter.

How to Book Me:

I look forward to hearing from you!

Please reach out and we will have a short discovery call to make sure we are the perfect fit for your shoot.  I want to delight you! 

After we book the date I will send you a contract and bank deposit details.  

For weddings a  deposit  $1000.00 is due at that time.  

The remainder is due within 3 days after your shoot date. 

Approximately 2 weeks before your wedding shoot we will finalize the 'Run Sheet' (a list of specific photographs you would like taken)

One of my missions is to increase awareness about 'The Photographer as an Artist'. Like all other Artists, a Photographer has a gift to see things others may not. To have a point of view and a talent for capturing life's moments.  The Photographer will unveil the story and give the viewer a narrative. The size of a Photographer's camera or the amount of money they have spent (loans - credit - cash) on their equipment, accessories and toolbox does not always equal magnificent work.  What counts is the art; the eye. 

I have stood beside wedding guests who are taking snapshots with $10,000 cameras while I create with a $250 compact pro camera or pro mobile phone.  I have never been disappointed (nor have my Clients) by the outcome of the images. 

As a natural-light, candid, cinematic/documentary style image maker, I promise you my best talent. 

If you long to be a Photographer but are lacking confidence or are embarrassed by your toolbox, I urge you to get going. Don't wait. Get busy shooting. Photography is a verb. (and an art)

Thank You
