The Saturday Session
Pick your date
Choose a time on the booking page. I'll confirm within 24 hours and send the retainer link.
Plan the shoot
We pick the location, the feel, and film or digital together. You'll know exactly what to expect.
Get your photos
Three sneak peeks within 48 hours, then your edited photos in a private gallery. The kind you'll still be sharing years from now.
Booking
Reserve your date with a 50% non-refundable retainer. The remaining balance is due by invoice before your gallery is delivered. If you need to reschedule with sufficient notice, your retainer can be transferred once to a new date.
I take on a limited number of sessions each month. Dates are held with a retainer, first come, first served.
Send a friend
When a friend you send my way books a session, you get $50 off your next one, and they get 3 extra edited photos.
Seasonal minis go to The Saturday Letter first, then Instagram.
Film or digital?
35mm film
Slower and more intentional. Grain, color, and imperfections that feel timeless and human. Best for portraits and couples.
Digital
Fast and flexible for events, action, and quick turnarounds. Most shoots mix both, and we'll decide together.
Questions
How fast will I get my photos?
You'll get 3 sneak peeks within 48 hours. Digital galleries arrive in 1 to 2 weeks, and events take about a week. Film adds about a week for developing and scanning.
What if it rains?
We reschedule to the soonest date that works for both of us.
Do you travel outside San Diego?
Yes. I'm based in San Diego and happy to travel. Anywhere in San Diego County is included. Farther out, I'll quote a flat travel fee up front.
Can I use the photos commercially?
Personal sessions are for personal use, so share, post, and print freely. Brand work includes commercial use.
How do I book and pay?
Pick a time on the Book your session page. That holds your date for 48 hours while I confirm and send the link for the 50% non-refundable retainer, and your date is locked in once it’s paid. Questions first? Just text or email me. The remaining balance is due by invoice before your gallery is delivered. If you need to reschedule with sufficient notice, your retainer can be transferred once to a new date.
What should I wear?
Something that feels like you. After we book, I send a short guide with outfit and location ideas.
Do you only shoot on Saturdays?
Nope. Saturday is a feeling. I shoot any day of the week.
Do you have a referral reward?
Yes. When a friend you send my way books a session, you get $50 off your next one, and they get 3 extra edited photos.
Not sure which fits?
Email me what you're picturing and I'll point you to the right session.
