I offer a one-hour session for author photos. During this session, you'll receive 20 shots, and you can select two of your favorites for edited proofs. You'll keep all 20 photos. The cost is $125.00 for locations within an hour's drive from WJP base in Marshall, Michigan. Feel free to include your dog, cat, or llama, as long as they don't bite!

Each item includes two proofs and three rounds of corrections. Any corrections beyond the initial three rounds will incur an additional charge of $55.00 per return per hour of work performed.
