Do you travel for sessions?

Yes! While I’m based in San Jose, CA, I photograph all over the Bay Area.

For locations outside the Bay Area, a travel fee of $25 per 30 minutes of drive time (one way) may apply.

For destination sessions requiring air travel, clients are responsible for roundtrip airfare, hotel accommodations, and local transportation.
