let’s talk $!
investment?
Look, I get it—"pricing" is straightforward and to the point. But when it comes to capturing your most precious moments, calling it "pricing" feels like calling a diamond ring "just a shiny rock." It’s not wrong, but it doesn’t exactly capture the magic, does it?
Think of it this way: you’re not just paying for some photos; you’re investing in your memories, your story, and a lifetime of being able to prove to future generations that you were indeed cool once.
When you book me, you're getting more than pretty pictures. You're getting someone who’s just as committed to capturing the sparkle in your eye as the frosting on your wedding cake (both are equally important). So yeah, it's an investment—one that pays you back in "aww"s, laughs, and maybe even a happy tear or two for years to come.
Weddings
First of all, I am SO excited for you.
Choosing a wedding photographer who understands that your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event is so important. My primary purpose as your wedding photographer is to ensure that every moment—big and small— is documented with care and authenticity. My secondary purpose is probably tearing it up with you on the dance floor...

…and if you’re thinking, “Starting at? Dude, just tell me how much it costs.” …I get it.
Pricing is influenced by proximity to Chicago and optional add-ons like 35mm film or a second shooter!
-
+$100 per roll, with up to 36 exposures per roll! I primarily shoot on Kodak Portra 400.
-
+$750 flat fee. For couples wanting to ensure that no moments slip through the cracks. A second shooter allows for timeline flexibility and for me to essentially be in two places at once! Note that I do require second shooters for weddings near or in excess of 150 guests. Weddings just below that number will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
-
Travel fees are assessed on a case-by-case basis and are something I discuss when applicable on all of my initial client calls! I do travel, and because I love to travel, those fees just cover the cost of me getting there! Accommodations, meals and transportation are included in this fee, so you get to sit back and continue planning the wedding of your dreams.
