Portrait packages

The main differences between packages: how many finished files you keep, and how far we're willing to drive. Every session is an hour or less. No deposit; you pay at the end of the shoot.

Wondering how these numbers compare to the rest of the Bay Area, or what "session fee plus prints" pricing really costs? Read the honest pricing guide.
