FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My studio believes in absolute transparency, offering clear baseline rates from $250 for headshots up to $300 per hour for customized commercial branding. All listed prices are fully comprehensive and include high-resolution digital delivery, polished professional editing, and pro lighting equipment brought directly to your location. To support our local San Diego community, we proudly offer a flat 10% military discount for active-duty personnel and veterans on any session of two hours or more.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My process is completely seamless and highly organized from start to finish. Once you reach out, we connect directly to discuss your specific creative vision, review your target lighting styles, and lock in your session date. On the day of your shoot, I bring a full suite of professional studio equipment directly to your location and guide you through a relaxed session, delivering your polished, high-resolution digital gallery shortly after.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a technically trained photographer specializing in classical studio lighting setups and advanced facial sculpting, including the iconic butterfly effect and dramatic Rembrandt lighting. My expertise focuses on using light to shape shadows, contour facial features, and naturally emphasize symmetry to create high-end, cinematic portraits. Additionally, my background includes ten full years of professional sales and corporate client management experience, which ensures an elite level of organization, transaction integrity, and high-value customer service throughout your entire booking.
