I am primarily a location photographer...meaning, I prefer shooting outside using natural light. But I occasionally shoot in my studio, located in La Mesa, California. I am willing to travel anywhere within San Diego county...location shoots outside the area will incur travel expenses.

The rates included on this page pertain to personal, non-commercial usage only. Images may be used for self promotion, personal, and portfolio usage. For commercial usage, please contact me.

For all photo sessions, an online proofing gallery is provided within 48 hours of the shoot. After you have made your selections, please allow 2-3 weeks for retouched images.

Images will be delivered on a CD-ROM (unless otherwise requested). Retouched images will be formatted for the web as well as print-ready resolution [8x12]. A copyright release will be provided allowing non-commercial reproduction rights. All other images from the shoot will be delivered in watermarked, proof form when your CD is delivered. Additional retouched images are $20 each.

Standard retouching includes, but is not limited to, color correction, image levelling, light blemish removal, skin smoothing.

Weddings are photographed with a mix of traditional and photojournalistic styles. It is important to have traditional portraiture that is timeless and classic...but also to have colorful, invigorating photography that is eye-catching, creative, youthful, and most of all...fun.
