Your session options:
We call this page Investment rather than pricing for a reason. It's simple; when you choose to work with Tracy Dietrich Photography you are investing in quality Portrait Art.
On a typical session we will spend about an hour together whether it be in our funky downtown studio in Hampden, MD or at the location of your choice. We'll take a few minutes to "break the ice" and then we'll just chat and get started. It' s a pretty casual and easygoing environment but don't dismay; we are sticklers for good lighting and backgrounds & colors that make you look your best! You may even forget about the camera during our session! Kids are a particular favorite subject as each one is an individual and we love getting them to relax and feel comfortable. We're going to have fun and the result will be natural, beautiful photographs- as you are!
The Studio: We're pretty excited about this place! We searched long and hard to find just the right studio space. The beauty of it is that it's in a cool old factory warehouse with amazing natural light and good ol' hardwood floors. It is in a fun eclectic and revitalized neighborhood that offers fantastic urban settings with the bonus of being on the edge of a gorgeous park! This all equals a setting that truly unique to T.D.P. !
