This is the Information Everyone Wants, So Here It is!
Session Fee and Portrait Pricing
The session fee is $450 and is consistent across most of my offerings.
Before We Get Into the Details
I totally understand why you’d want to see pricing right off the bat without having to ask. But here’s the thing, I’ve chosen not to put all my rates and packages up on my website. There are a few reasons for this. First off, pricing can change depending on where your session is. I’m based in Maine, but if you’re planning something outside this area, say in New York City, Boston, Phoenix, or Montana, there are extra things like travel to consider. And if we’re talking about a destination session, well, that’s a whole different ball game.
Also, I like to make sure what I offer fits exactly what you need. That means I often customize my packages to suit each client’s unique requirements. I’d love to do the same for you. To get a quote that’s just right for you, all it takes is a quick email. I promise to get back to you fast, and I’m really looking forward to chatting more about it.
Just so you have a ballpark, my starting prices for portrait session here in Maine begin at $1500. Most of my clients usually invest somewhere between $2500-$5000 for the combined session and physical products.
How Does The Pricing Work
My process is very simple: I separate the session fee from the products I offer.Â
Whether you choose Personal Branding portraits, narrative portraits, boudoir photography, fine art portraits, or senior portraits, the session fee of $450 is always the same. The only time there is NOT a session fee is when you come in for an advertised special or photo project.
For example, a standard portrait session this includes:
- A private consultation, either in my Maine studio or through a remote service like Zoom
- Hair and makeup upon request
- A 2-3 hour magazine-style photo shoot
- Multiple outfit changes
- Snacks and beverages
- Reveal and Ordering appointment
- Professional photo retouching to make sure every image is perfect
