FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing depends on the kind of photography services required: Concert/portraiture - My rate for portraiture, including couples sessions, music, and on-location sessions, is $100/hour with a 2 hour minimum. Most sessions of this type last for roughly 2 hours, with at least 2 looks and location changes, but longer sessions or large groups are welcome as well. The package includes all images as .jpgs on a disc or thumb drive, which can be used for personal purposes as well as social or local media, with the option to have printable files for an extra fee. (This package would include "headshots" for solely personal purposes. Headshots to be used for COMMERCIAL rather than personal purposes - My rate is $300 for a 2-hour session. This includes studio and on-location style shots and several outfit and location changes. Also included is a disc of .jpgs of all images, for social media-type uses only, plus 10 or so high-resolution TIFF files with printing rights. Family/Child portraiture - For family sessions, my rate is $150 for a single child, $200 for multiple children, families, or parties. The sessions are usually shorter, around 1 to 1.5 hours, because children have shorter attention spans. More time can be added for parties or events at a $50/hour rate. The package includes all of the images on a CD for common usage, including printing for personal display and social media posting. If desired, I can add an additional print package, with images shipped to your house, for cost plus a small fee. Events/Weddings/Miscellaneous - My standard rate of $100/hour with a 2 hour minimum applies to all weddings and wedding functions (rehearsal dinners, etc.). We can work around the logistics and details, or create a you-specific package. Real estate photography uses the same rate with no minimum number of hours. Sports - For events, tournaments, teams, or team functions, I will work out a specific package with the client based on hourly needs. I will also work within already established parameters for companies or groups that have a set system. The rate is roughly $100/hour, but can be higher or lower, depending on the number of hours or clients/families/teams (similar to buying in bulk or bundling services). For sessions more than 20 miles from Nashville, a travel fee may be required to compensate for the cost of gas and the extra driving time.
