Eventually We Must Get Down to Business
Life can't be all fun and games. Services must be discussed. Deals must be made. My rates for wedding, fashion and corporate photography vary depending on the size and scope of the job. Feel free to contact me for details. If you're interested in headshots, dance shots and comp cards, everything is explained below.

Packages

  • Headshots (UNLIMITED PACKAGE): $850
  • The shoot includes over 500 digital color images in at least four locations (inside and outside), and lasts 3-4 hours (including time for hair and makeup, which is an additional charge). You will have access to the images online within five business days of the shoot. You will be able to email them to friends and agents and order a full resolution DVD from Reproductions for $25. And most importantly, free lattes! See After Your Shoot for more specifics. 
  •  
  • Headshots (RECESSION PACKAGE): $700
  • The shoot includes about 200 digital color images in two locations, and lasts about 2 hours. No additional discounts. If you don't specify this package when booking the session, I will schedule you for the Unlimited Package.
  •  
  • Dancer Photographs: $1000 (makeup required: women $200/ men $150)
  • This package includes a full headshot session, plus body shots and dance shots. The session lasts 4-5 hours. The dance and body shots will be used to emphasize your strength, flexibility, athleticism and artistry; they are essential for online and print promotion. Click here for examples.
  •  
  • Comp Card/Headshots 
  • 3 looks + headshots: $1200 (makeup required: women $250/ men $200)
  • 4 looks + headshots: $1350 (makeup required: women $300/ men $250)  *most popular package
  • 5 looks + headshots: $1500 (makeup required: women $350/ men $300)
  •  
  • During your unlimited headshot session I’ll take additional photographs for a composite card (3-5 looks). This is used by actors, models, dancers and musicians for commercial print auditions and self-promotion. A comp card is not just for models (see samples). A comp card is an important resource in addition to a headshot. It allows you to introduce yourself to industry professionals in a much more diverse way than with a headshot alone. Please indicate this package when booking a session so I can allow for extra time to shoot. The session generally lasts 6-7 hours, including makeup.
  •  
  • If you're more comfortable in your own space, I am available to shoot your comp card in your home and neighborhood. Here are three examples of location shoots (Sample 1 / Sample 2 / Sample 3). Additional rates usually apply. Inquire for specifics.

  • Favorites Selection: $50 Headshots Package/ $100 Comp Card/Headshot Package
  • For an additional charge I will select my favorite images from your session.
  •  
  • Overnight Delivery: $50
  • For an additional $50 you'll receive your headshots tomorrow. Otherwise, they will be available in four business days.

  • Repeat Offenders - Save: $100
    I want to be your photographer for life (it's really not as creepy as it sounds), so I will take $100 off for returning clients. This time, you bring the coffee. 

  • Greensavers - Save: $50
    Help reduce our dependence on fossil fuels by converting your home to Green Power with Con Edison. It's quick, easy and inexpensive.

Bring your electric bill or receipt and I will take $50 off your shoot.  

  • Caffeine Special - Extra Photos!
    A soy latte from Joe Coffee (the best espresso in NYC) will get me so wired I'll never stop shooting. If you want to look extra beautiful, bring one for the makeup artist as well.
     

Hair and Make-up
 

  • Headshots- $175 for women/ $100 for men (see comp card rates above) Cash Only. Additional $40 due for full blow-out. Paid directly to the stylist. She has years of experience and is wonderful with subtle, natural light makeup. Best of all, she stays for the entire session to keep an eye on you. She’s extremely fun to be around and will keep you feeling relaxed and beautiful. I recommend her highly for men and women, and we’re not even related.
