But first, Questionnaire
2023 Pricing
If you’ve worked with me before, you know I take a very natural, lifestyle approach to photography - I want to capture you in your natural element! So, hair blowing in the wind? Perfect. Laughing so hard you trip on a walnut but your sig other saves you from danger- makes for a good memory! We can do standard posed pictures, but I love movement too. Just bring your real self and I’ll do the rest!
Family & Lifestyle Photography:
60-90 Minute Session: $375
For a journalistic approach to lifestyle photography (“the whole nine yards” - movement, candids, poses, and lots of joy, maximum amount of photos)
30-45 Minute Session: $275
For posed, more stationary lifestyle photography (a quicker session meant for capturing a smaller amount of photos - this is great for quick newborn photos, quick Christmas card photo, etc) I promise to give it my all in our short session.

Deliverables
My utmost care and attention to detail: I genuinely LOVE photographing your precious moments. You can expect me to be professional, positive, and to frame you with care! I want you to look your best and I will direct you throughout the shoot to make sure you do :) I love hearing from clients “He never likes photos of himself, and he loved these! Thank you so much!” and “You totally captured our personalities!” - there is nothing better than that!
Timeline on receiving photos: You will have access to your digital photo proofs within two weeks, sometimes sooner! Be sure to let me know when you need the photos by, if for example these are photos you need for an event or holiday cards, etc.
Online photo gallery: You will receive your photos via my website's Client Gallery, via the Pixiset tool. You can easily view all the photos on there and download them in high quality. Here is where the photos will be, I will create a password for you to view all your photos in one place!
Additional Pricing Information
Fast-moving objects - AKA children and pets ;) : For Family Portrait sessions, please note if you will have any of the following: more than 4 adults, more than one animal, or more than 1 small child in the photoshoot, I do charge an extra $75 total per session. This is because of the added effort it takes both in the photography session itself and in the post production editing process.
Locations: One location included per session. I am happy to travel, but my travel fee is not included in the pricing above.
Photoshop Requests: Additional Photoshop retouching is available. I charge $75/hour.
Website Privacy Option: I like to post my work to my website (Bluebearyco.com) to enhance my portfolio. I never include my family portrait clients' names. However, please let me know ahead of time if you prefer that I don't post pictures to my website for whatever reason. I completely respect your wishes with that, but I do charge a $50 privacy fee, since it takes away from my portfolio!
Equipment Failure: If, God forbid, my camera decides to break during the shoot, I will reschedule you free of charge for another session. This, knock on wood, has never happened before, and I hope it never does!
