Pricing & Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the pricing strategy?
- Pricing for specific situations can be negotiated depending on the type of work, time involved, and volume of the order. The general pricing is based on a fee for the photo session as well as prices for prints or digital files. The prices below are a starting point; please contact me for a custom quote.
- What is the session fee?
- The basic session fee is $80/hour. The session fee covers the time and talent of the photographer and does not include any prints. The session fee must be paid within 5 days of booking your session. This non-refundable session fee holds your session date and time. Should your session need to be rescheduled, the fee is transferable to the new date and time.
- What are the fees for prints?
- All prints are made through a professional lab using Kodak Endura paper. Pricing includes minor edits and retouching. These are base prices; discounts available based on quantities.
- 5×7: $10
- 8×10: $20
- 11×14: $28
- 16×20: $40
- other sizes (bigger and smaller) available upon request; ask for a quote
- Prints?! That’s old fashioned! I want digital images for web use or other digital artwork… how does that work?
- Glad you asked! For those wanting digital files, there are a couple options. For specific print or web uses, I can provide a digital file at an appropriate resolution, licensed for that use. Another option is to purchase the high-resolution digital file for any use, which gives the most flexibility but is also significantly more expensive (since the high-resolution digital file can then be used for any number of end results). The best option is to contact me to provide a quote for your specific needs.
- What equipment is used?
- I have a variety of equipment at my disposal. My primary cameras are Canon Digital SLRs and I use a variety of lenses depending on the needs of the project. I always bring a backup camera to every shoot in case of an unforeseen equipment problem.
Sales tax note: Product sales (prints, posters, digital files, etc) to Washington state residents are subject to state sales tax.
