Senior Portrait Pricing
Flexibility
Sometimes you don't know what you want until you see it. That's why I work in pricing tiers for senior portraits. Commit to the lowest tier and, after you see the proofs, step up based on the number of photos you want. It's that easy!
Examples below.
Starts at $300
Basic Tier
Your senior isn't stoked about photos, but is willing to get it done and make mom happy. Cool. We keep it simple. About 30 minutes, one on-island location and a handful of beautiful photos for the yearbook and your grad announcement. Easy peasy!
$300 + tax | 5 images
Standard Tier
Somewhere between all-in and the bare minimum, this is where most seniors land. You'll have plenty of images for posting, prints, grad ad, yearbook. All the fun things!
$500 + tax | 15 images
Top Tier
Let's say you really want to lean into your senior milestone. You have multiple locations in mind, multiple outfits and want to capture all the looks. Or, you just can't decide and want all the images. Not a problem! Welcome to the top tier.
$800 + tax | 30 images

FAQ
How long does a typical photo session last?
It depends on you! Senior portrait sessions range from 30 minutes to 3 hours. These are general time estimates, not strict cut off times. We will discuss your needs and how long to plan for during a planning session.
What time of day can I do my session?
The best time is two hours before sunset or two hours after sunrise. The light at mid-day tends to be too harsh and creates strong shadows and squinting. It is possible to do a mid-day shoot if that is the only time available. It just takes some planning and location scouting to find open shade.
Can we choose the location for our photo shoot?
Absolutely! We will spend a good part of our planning session deciding on location. Where you take your photos plays a big role in creating a session unique to you. Whether it's at your home, a pasture, a football field, or a city street, your location should have meaning to you.
What happens if the weather is bad on the day of an outdoor shoot?
If the weather doesn't cooperate, we can discuss alternatives. We may need to reschedule the session or find an indoor location. We want the best possible photos, and sometimes that means we have to be flexible.
How long does it take to receive the final edited photos?
I'll deliver a proof gallery within one week of the shoot. You then take time to review that gallery and decide which images you want in your final collection. After you make your selection, I will start editing and will deliver your final gallery within a week.
What happens if I get sick?
Like the weather, we can't control when we fall ill. You want to look and feel your best when you take your photos, so we will reschedule your shoot for when you are fully recovered.
Can I bring my dog? How about my bestie?
Um, yeah! You are welcome to bring whatever and whoever makes you feel confident. Just keep in mind how much "managing" your four-legged or two-legged companion will need. We'll discuss before the shoot.
What is your editing style?
The images on my website are representative of my general editing style. I aim to preserve the authenticity of you and the scene, while reducing distractions. That means I edit for balanced and consistent lighting and color. I touch up pimples and tone down redness and other temporary blemishes, like scratches or bruises. I reduce hair fly aways and clean up pet fur or other distractions on clothing. That said, if you want a certain look, just let me know. I'm always down for some creative edits.
