Thank you for your interest in booking a session!
A session fee of $500 is due on or before the day of your session and includes session preparation and planning, time during the session, hand-editing of individual images and file preparation, and a shareable online gallery. Your images from the session will be available as a digital download right from the gallery. I do recommend that you place your print orders from your SmugMug gallery, as their print quality and color are beautiful, but it is definitely not required. Your images come with a print release so that you may print from any lab you prefer.
A travel fee may apply to locations more than 15 miles from the Ames area.
My post-session image editing timeframe is approximately 3 weeks. If you need your images by a certain date or for a special occasion, please let me know prior to booking your session.
I book sessions on Fridays, Saturdays and some Sunday evenings in the hour before sunset. Weekday evenings are available at certain times during the year as well. At this time I do not have an indoor studio, so if there is inclement weather in the forecast, I do my best to work with you to reschedule your session for a future date. Unfortunately weather is unpredictable so please keep that in mind when scheduling your session! While I do shoot single-family lifestyle sessions indoors, I do not shoot family or extended family portrait sessions indoors.
If I think the weather might be dangerous to us, harmful to my equipment, or if it might hinder the overall end result of your images, I will ask that we reschedule. That decision is usually made the night before or the morning of the day of the session. Even if it stops raining before your originally scheduled session time, the grass will most likely be wet and muddy, and with kiddos it’s nice to have the option to take cuddly family pictures on the ground. Weather can be a guessing game, but I have you and your images’ best interests in mind! The small inconvenience of rescheduling a session for the possibility of better weather means you may love your images just that much more. 🙂
If you would like to inquire about availability, please send an email to hello@jennyerichsen.com or use the contact form above. I look forward to hearing from you!
