Wedding Photography - I come to weddings prepared to take all the classic shots but also capture the special moments here and there. There is a long list of classic shots provided ahead of time to the couple. They check off the ones they want and I make sure that during the Big Day they're taken. The Engagement Session is highly suggested. It's a very good way to get to know each other. Any photo questions/concerns are dealt with at that time and you'll also have one less unfamiliar face, or camera, on your wedding day. Prices are as follows -

I am more than happy to travel to you! If you live outside of Tallahassee, Thomasville, Bainbridge, or Cairo, GA the rate is 50 cents per mile (each way). The first 40 miles are included. For instance, if you live 100 miles away the travel charge is $60. If you live farther than 250 miles away please contact me for travel arrangements.
Portrait Photography is shot on location, such as at the Big Oak in Thomasville or a park in Tallahassee. I want you to feel comfortable and children's portraits are done best in a place they feel at ease. The sitting fee is $75 per hour for up to 3 people. Each additional person is $10. Each portrait session comes with 5 4x6 prints and an 8x10 - a value of over $50!

All charges (excluding service hours) are subject to 7% sales tax. Anything that must be shipped, such as prints or albums, are subject to a $5 shipping/handling fee. If you are in Cairo or Tallahassee we can make arrangements for a drop off/pick up to avoid the fee.
Please note that specials cannot be combined. You can only save so much, ladies and gents!
Prices are subject to change without notice. If prints are included in your package and the client has not contacted me or picked out the prints after the proofs have been online for a full month then I will pick out prints totaling (but not exceeding) the allotted amount and send them to the last known address.
NOTE ABOUT PRINTS: There may be cropping. This happens with any photography. 4x6 is full frame but 5x7, 8x10, and any other industry standard size prints crop off pieces of the long side of the image. The red on the examples below show you how much of the image is cropped. When ordering your prints please keep this in mind. If you do not want the image cropped then order them 'full frame' but please keep in mind that without proper matting you will not be able to place these images in a standard sized frame. If you order an image 'full frame' then you will have to have custom framing built.
When ordering prints please use the 3 or 4 digit number at the bottom left of the image. Please use this format when sending your order to AnsleySimmons@gmail.com :
#2015 (1)4x6 (1)5x7 fix blemish, b/w
Included in your sitting fee is basic improvements to your prints. I can easily fix blemishes or make the image black and white or sepia toned. I can even make you look a bit younger! If there are other services you'd like please e-mail me for ideas. Again, images will be cropped until you note in the order that you want it printed 'full frame.'
See below for different special effect examples and descriptions.
