PORTRAIT DAY DETAILS 2025 - Monday, February 24th
AN IMAGE IS STILL WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS
Portraits should tell a story about you — give a glimpse into your personality, your vision, your human presence. I offer portrait sessions that are more than a simple headshot session and give you images that aim to express your uniqueness in your work and life.
90% percent of the people I photograph walk in the door and say, “I really don’t like having my photo taken”. My aim is to undo some of that by finding ways to relax, to breathe, to be present, and know that I’m looking out for you and working to help you feel comfortable in your own body.
For these portrait days, prices are reduced from my regular rates to give entrepreneurs, small business owners and individuals an opportunity to benefit from pro-rated portrait fees. But the rates also INCLUDE hair and makeup which is normally an additional $200 - $250 fee. I only offer this a few times in a year. All photo sessions follow health and safety measures.
BASIC DETAILS
When & Where: Currently booking for Monday, February 24th 2025. Location is my Strathcona studio in Vancouver, BC. The studio is modern, clean, bright with white walls, concrete floors and I’ll have a range of backdrops, chairs and a table to use.
1 Hour Portrait session $850 (including pro hair and makeup / grooming):
Two looks — includes an outfit change and can be a mix of on location near my studio (weather permitting ) and in studio. Final set of 10 images from an online gallery of 80+ images. Pricing includes professional and on site hair, makeup, grooming.
You have the option to purchase additional images for $75/each. Photographs are licensed for your own PR use, unlimited time frame, but not resale. Publication for editorial use is fine with image credits.
Hair and makeup are included in these prices. I find it helps people feel confident, polished and pro. It usually takes an additional 45 min - 1 hr before your photo session depending on your hair so plan on a 2 hour block of time in your schedule for these sessions. All pricing is + GST.
Cancellation Policy: In the event of a cancellation or postponement of the shoot within 48 hours of the booked date, Client shall pay 50% of the anticipated photographic fee and 100% of the anticipated fees of any subcontractors booked for the job. If the Client cancels their spot less than 24 hrs in advance, 100% of all fees will be billed. There is an exception to this fee, if you are able to find someone else who wants to take your session, the booking is transferable.
