Each photography project will be tailored to fit your needs, whether you have a large clothing catalog, need to create an advertising campaign, you are a model in dire need of a portoflio update, or a musican who needs killer promotional shots, or you just want to remember a special time with your loved ones. Our resulting photos will be all about you with an injection of my personality and creativity.

Useful Information ~

Where are you?
I'm usually in Los Angeles and available all over southern California. 3-4 times a year I travel back home to Hawaii and work there for 2-4 weeks. I also go to New York once a year and occasionally Las Vegas and Miami. Check the "News" section on the homepage for my updated travel schedule.

What's a "set up?"
You will see the word "set up" occasionally on this page or in an email or phone call from me. I may use it interchangeably with the word "look." A set up is a combination of location or studio set up change, hair and makeup change, among other factors. My pricing is loosely based on the number of set ups we shoot. Quick clothing changes can be made during each set up and the number of poses per set up is only limited by the duration of the shoot.

Im ready, how do I book a shoot?

Rates:
Please contact directly for rates by email

Prospective private clients please specify if you would like information on rates for a half day, day or packages that I offer.

Prospective commercial clients please provide as much detail as possible regarding the type of photographic services you need and the type of usage requirements you have. The more detail you provide, the more accurate and often lower the quote can be since you only pay for what you need rather uses you may never need.

Details for a standard non-commercial shoot:
- 2 set ups, location or studio (you can do multiple changes within a set up)
- Online proofing gallery or low resolution proofing CD within a week of the shoot
- Basic image corrections on all usable images from the shoot (exposure, color, contrast)
- 4 retouched images included (2 for head shots)
- Additional retouched images $40-50 each
- CD with all high resolution images + any retouched images included (does not include copyright--copyright can be negotiated)
- Additional setups can be added for an additional fee
- Deposit required to book shoot (please see Google Checkout button in the sidebar)
- Local sales tax applies unless unless paid for in cash at the shoot

Hair and Make up:
I do not have hair and make up artists on staff. You may bring your own stylists to the shoot as long as you send me examples of their work prior to the shoot. If you need either of these services please let me know in advance and I will contact some of the great stylists I've worked with before. Click here to see a list.

Studio:
I do not have my own studio at this time. For smaller projects that require a studio I work out of my apartment in the Brentwood neighborhood. Larger projects may require studio rental and additional fees may apply.
