A treat, obviously!

Just kidding—although I do try to make the entire process—from ideation to final product—as painless and responsive and custom to you as possible.

• First, I’ll ask you what it is you need to communicate, and what you want people to know or feel when they look at your piece or product. I may also ask for reference photos or if there’s any of my past work that caught your eye.

• Depending on the project, I’ll come back to you with a loose sketch, or options for directions to explore further.

• Once you pick a direction or are happy with the sketch, I’ll get to work!

• If you’ve purchased a digital file, I will send a hi-res file by email. If you’ve purchased a physical item, I will mail it via USPS.

GRAPHIC DESIGN

I charge $50/hour, so the final price is up to you, based on how many rounds of revision you’d like.

CALLIGRAPHY & PAINTING

Pricing is based on complexity and size of the work, and what tools I need to make it. For general reference:

• a 5”x7” pet portrait is about $100

• an 11”x14” manuscript-style page would be $400

• envelope addresses are $3/each using black ink and plain paper; other options are available

I also offer invitation design—up to ~50 words plus a monograph (for weddings)—$100.

PHOTOGRAPHY

• Hour-long studio photoshoot—$100

• Multi-hour or day-long events—$50/hour

Both options include some photo curation so you can pick your favorites. I can also offer retouching for an additional $50/hour. Price includes hi-res originals.

How many words I can fit into a piece depends on a lot of things—the content and complexity of the art, the style of writing, and how you feel about line breaks, for a few.

For reference, generally speaking:

• Using a dense style like Gothic textura quadrata, I can fit up to about 1½–2 words on average per square inch—so, about 50 words on a 4”x6” piece, or about 150 words on a US letter size paper (including an art border).

• Using a much looser style like insular/uncial, I can only fit about 1 word per square inch, so about half those amounts.

• The more art there is, the fewer words I can fit, and vice versa.
