Thanks for your interest in my work! I’m excited to be offering outdoor, lifestyle, and studio sessions this year to meet your custom photography needs. I take a very relaxed approach to all of my sessions as I truly believe that the more at ease everyone is throughout the session, the better the end results will be. I want you to end up with not only beautiful portraits but also a fun, memorable experience. While I always strive to get at least a few “everyone look at the camera and smile” shots, I think the true beauty comes in capturing all the little things that make your family unique. Please take a look at the descriptions below and contact me if you have questions or are ready to book!
Full Portrait Session – Outdoor – $350
This is what you might consider my standard photography session. It can be booked to cover any portrait photography subjects – couples, maternity, children, and families!
What’s included:
- Approximately 1 hour session at an outdoor location near Glen Ellyn, IL
- 35+ images carefully selected by me, edited, and delivered via a password protected online gallery within 2-3 weeks of the session. The full-resolution jpgs can be downloaded directly from the gallery.
- Immediate family only. Please contact me for a quote for an extended family session!
What else to expect:
- In order to reserve your session appointment on my calendar, a signed contract and $100 non-refundable retainer must be received. The remaining session fee balance is due before or at the time of your session.
- An additional travel fee of $20 will be added for locations 20-30 miles from zip code 60137. Please contact me for pricing on travel inquiries greater than 30 miles.
Mini Portrait Session – Outdoor – $250
Just like the full session above, a mini outdoor session can be booked to cover any portrait photography subjects – couples, maternity, children, and families! This session is a great option if you need just a few updated portraits but, due to our limited time together, will not include the same variety in backgrounds and posing as a full session.
What’s included:
- Approximately 30 minute session at limited locations.
- 15 images carefully selected by me, edited, and delivered via a password protected online gallery within 2-3 weeks of the session. The full-resolution jpgs can be downloaded directly from the gallery.
- If more than 15 images are presented in the gallery, additional digital images can be purchased for $20 each or $100 for the entire gallery.
- Immediate family only. Please contact me for a quote for an extended family session!
What else to expect:
- In order to reserve your session appointment on my calendar, a signed contract and $100 non-refundable retainer must be received. The remaining session fee balance is due before or at the time of your session.
Full Portrait Session – Lifestyle – $400
If you’d prefer a session in the comfort of your own home, I am happy to come to you! These sessions are great for telling your stories – the things you like to do together, your kids playing with their favorite toys, or any other little details you want to capture. If you don’t have anything like that in mind, don’t worry! I’m happy to observe and guide the session as needed. Because we’ll be using natural light, the best time of day for this session will be determined based on the lighting in your home and the rooms where you wish to be photographed.
What’s included:
- Approximately 1 hour session at your home.
- 25+ images carefully selected by me, edited, and delivered via a password protected online gallery within 2-3 weeks of the session. The full-resolution jpgs can be downloaded directly from the gallery.
- Immediate family only. Please contact me for a quote for an extended family session!

Mini Portrait Session – Studio Maternity or Baby Milestone – $200
This type of session can take place at any time throughout your pregnancy ( maternity photos are generally done between 30 and 35 weeks) or baby’s first year to capture those mini milestones – grabbing toes, sitting up, and turning 1 – that seem to pass so quickly. I take a simple approach to styling my sessions so that the focus is on capturing you or your sweet baby!
What’s included:
- Approximately 30 minute session at my home studio in Glen Ellyn, IL
- 10 images carefully selected by me, edited, and delivered via a password protected online gallery within 2-3 weeks of the session. The full-resolution jpgs can be downloaded directly from the gallery.
- If more than 10 images are presented in the gallery, additional digital images can be purchased for $20 each or $100 for the entire gallery.
- Studio sessions are for the immediate subject only (Mom or baby.)
What else to expect:
- In order to reserve your session appointment on my calendar, a signed contract and $100 non-refundable retainer must be received. The remaining session fee balance is due before or at the time of your session.
- I have a growing collection of maternity and baby (size 3-18 months) clothing that I know photograph well. You are welcome to bring your own outfits too, but I’d love to style some or all of the session for you!
