New product? New space? New photos overdue?

Professional branding images for small businesses — shot in a session, delivered ready for your website, your socials, and wherever else you're about to be seen.

Let's make it official.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How quickly will I receive the images?

Same-day selects are available when the timeline calls for them — a habit formed across 150+ activations where guests often received their photos before leaving the building. The full color-graded gallery arrives on a date we agree to in writing before the event. Rush options exist for the truly unkind deadlines.

2. Can you cover sponsor moments and brand deliverables?

This is, candidly, the entire business model. We build the shot list against your deliverables — sponsor placements, branded environments, VIP moments — before load-in. Nothing on the recap checklist is left to improvisation, including the improvised moments.

3. What usage rights do we get?

Marketing, Internal, PR,  and social media use are included — stated plainly in the agreement. All owned channels included.



Paid-advertising use is licensed separately, also written plainly. Your legal team will be almost disappointed at how little there is to argue about.

4. Do you offer digital files, prints, or albums?

Digital files are included with the above usage rights.


Prints and books are available at additional cost via my print shop. Custom sizing and styles available. Shipped direct to your address.


Galleries with digital download will available via website at agreed upon date, no later than 2 weeks after event.

Frequently Asked Questions

5. Do you travel?

Chicago based; available nationwide.


Recent field work includes San Francisco for a conference, Akron for a Skills Summit for the Lebron James Foundation, and Indianapolis for a WWE event, which was a little louder than the previous two.

6. What happens if equipment fails?

It is not  given the opportunity. Two camera bodies, duplicate cards in each, backups made on site before I leave the venue. Thirteen years of live events without a lost gallery — a streak I intend to keep out of superstition and professionalism, in that order.

7. Do you photograph weddings?

A limited number each year, with the speed of modern digital and the timelessness of film. Film packages available and encouraged, though not required.



If the date is open, I'll lock you in.

8. How do we book you for a date?

Send the date, venue, and scope through the contact form. You’ll have availability and a quote within one business day; a signed agreement and small retainer hold the date.


Certificates of insurance available for venues that require.
