What to Expect…

Hello! It’s an honor to have you here! I hope this page gives you a great idea of what to expect and answers some questions you might have. Of course we’ll dig into everything in detail in our initial consultation, and dig down on exactly what you’re looking for, why this shoot is important to you, and what kind of vibe you’re looking for.

Process:

  • We’ll probably first get in touch by you sending me an email, or filling out the consult form on the website, I’ll get back to you within 12 hours, but usually right away.

  • Initial phone call or meet up (happy to buy you a coffee or cocktail, this helps a lot with rapport!) to go over all your questions, thoughts, talk through ideas, and look at schedules.

  • Booking is official with deposit

  • Balance due morning of photoshoot

  • Have an amazing shoot!

  • Within 2 weeks of the shoot, we’ll have a “viewing appointment” when you’ll choose your favorite photos and order prints/keepsakes. I’ll have the initial selects done to filter out photos where you’re blinking or sneezing and I’ll do a first round of edits to bring the photos to life.

  • Once you’ve chosen however many photos you want, I’ll have everything completed (full retouching, color grading, and other edits) and deliver them to you within 3 weeks of that viewing appointment. Usually sooner, but a little bandwidth is helpful for me, especially during busy seasons. I also order all your prints and can either have them delivered directly to you, or deliver them in person if you have a significant other at home and don’t want to ruin the surprise!

Deliverables/Pricing:

We have so many options for deliverables and keepsakes available to you aside from the digital images; physical prints, metal prints, acrylic prints, photo albums, and more! Specific pricing based on size/quantity etc.

A basic shoot starts at $695, and will include 1 hour, 1 or 2 outfits (your choice), and 10 fully edited digital images retouched and color graded to the standard of a fashion magazine (I’ve been published many times so I know that level of quality and attention to detail!). From here the tailored package usually begins.

For context, most investments run between $1,400-$3,400, and up from there.

If you’re interested in multiple shoots, I recommend becoming a VIP Member to save some money!

We can add on:

  • More time

  • More fully retouched digitals delivered

  • Video highlight of the shoot to accompany the stills (like a steamy short film featuring you!)

  • The initial full batch of edits/selects is available for a flat rate based on quantity (usually between 50-150 depending on the length of the shoot)

  • Multiple locations

  • and more!

Other Pricing Notes:

  • 25% required for booking, non-refundable, but is transferable if you need to reschedule

  • Balance due morning of shoot (not including prints/keepsakes)

  • Payment plans are available to break up the cost over time

  • Accepted forms of payment: Credit Card (5% Processing Fee), Venmo, Zelle, and of course Cash

  • I am also legally required to collect sales tax bases on Client’s zip code per “the State's decision to include digital goods in the definition of tangible personal property.”

I hope that answers most questions, but of course if you want to know more about anything, we’ll go over it in our consultations!

I can’t wait to meet you and hear your story!!
