What to expect

No surprises. No high-pressure sales room. No falling in love with your photographs and then finding out what they cost.

Before your session ever hits the calendar, we'll talk about what you want from your Blackbird experience and walk through the investment together.

Your date is reserved with a $249 session fee. This covers the creative planning and photography experience itself; photographs and artwork are purchased separately.

Professional hair and makeup is part of the experience, but it's billed separately so you're paying the artist directly for their work. Most clients can expect to invest around $300, depending on the services they choose.

Come in, settle down, get pampered, and let someone else take care of you for a while.

Before your session, you'll choose the collection you want to begin with.

Collections start at $1,495 and include professionally retouched digital photographs paired with tangible artwork designed to be held, displayed, and kept.

You can choose to pay in full or use a prepayment plan to spread your investment out before your session.

And if you fall in love with more photographs than you expected?

You can always upgrade.

After we photograph, you'll take a break while I prepare your images for your same-day reveal. Then comes the part I love.

You'll see yourself.

Not six weeks later. Not through an impersonal online gallery while you're sitting alone at home. Together.

You'll choose the photographs that become your finished artwork, finalize any upgrades, and then I'll take care of creating everything for you. By the time we get here, you already know what you've planned to spend. The money decisions are mostly behind you.

All that's left is deciding which version of “Holy shit, that's me” you want to take home.
