Lighting Up Your Life Portrait & Event Photography

Bio
Hi, I'm Steven! I love taking bright, beautiful photos that portray people in a flattering and authentic way. But most importantly, I am a huge believer in capturing a glimpse of a person's inner light, that spark that comes from within.

Pricing Packages

Senior/Graduation Photo Session

($150 per person for groups of 3-10 people, individually in the same location)

We'll take around 30-70 pictures, usually with a mix of natural light and portable studio lighting. You'll be able to review the images on an iPad as we go and provide feedback on what you like and don't like so that we can hone in on the images that you will love the most. After the session I will narrow down the images to just the best ones based on your feedback during the session and my own professional judgement. I will then retouch the final images, including softening the skin, brightening the eyes slightly, whitening the teeth slightly if needed, removing any obvious things that stand out (i.e. pimples, flyaway hairs, etc), and various other fine touches to make you look your best. I strive for a polished but natural final look.

Your final product will include approximately 10-20 digital images that you can download from a digital gallery on my website.

My initial pricing is kept low for the first year, but will increase in the future. Book soon for the best price.

Prices Start from $200

Small Birthday Party (less than 50 people) - $200 per hour

Price is for general event coverage. Two hour minimum. If you want family photos or a photobooth, that will cost an additional $50 per family/group, paid by the family/group, or a flat rate additional fee of $500 for all families/groups paid by the event host.

Prices Start from $400

Non-Profit Theatre/Dance Promo Photos: $350-$500

For promo photos, I usually come to your facility, or we schedule a time to meet at a suitably themed outdoor space. The session itself would typically be about one hour, depending on how many performers, costumes, etc you wish to highlight. I will show the director the pictures on an iPad so we can adjust as needed. Following the session I will edit the pictures as needed and then deliver them for digital download from my website.

Prices Start from $350

Non-Profit Theatre/Dance Production Photos: $500-$1,000

I have a couple of goals with theatre/dance production photos. One is to try and get at least one or two great photos of every performer. Another is to try and capture a general sense of the key story moments and character relationships. If your performance space doesn't have adequate lighting, consider hiring me for a dress rehearsal so I can supplement the lighting with flash as needed.

NOTE: I would always recommend scheduling time for some posed photos. That way we can be sure of capturing some fantastic pictures of the most important things. My preference would be to do a posed session with all of the characters and ensembles, and then supplement that with candid photos from the live performance/rehearsal. This usually yields the best results.
