SAME SERVICES WITH A NEW STRUCTURE FOR SESSIONs IN OUR LOS ANGELES STUDIO

A message from us: Things are weird out there for everyone and we’re trying something a little different to offer more flexibility to our clients. We’re now charging a smaller Studio Fee for the time you spend in the studio. Then, once you receive your gallery, you can elect to pay for only the photos you want or for your entire session. 

Scroll down for session options and more info on how it works.

Please note this is an experimental pricing structure that could change at any time.

THE STANDARD SESSION

RETURNING CLIENTS & REFERRALS CAN TAKE $25 OFF

$300 Studio Fee

Due upon booking.

+

$38 per Selected Image or $325 for All Images

Invoiced after you’ve previewed your session. Separate from the Studio Fee.

Up to 2.5 hours in the studio. Usually results in 8+ looks, but there’s no official limit. Hair, makeup, and setup changes play a big role in the final number of looks. This session is ideal if PR/Editorial shots are needed in addition to headshots.

Two retouches included.

Complimentary prep time (up to 1 hour) is available for this session when you hire a professional HMUA – let us know when you book. 

Share this session with a friend for an additional $125 Studio Fee. No additional fees are required when purchasing your individual images or the full session. Both parties receive their full sessions if the rate for all images is paid.

THE SHORT SESH

RETURNING CLIENTS & REFERRALS CAN TAKE $25 OFF

$200 Studio Fee

Due upon booking.

+

$38 per Selected Image or $225 for All Images

Invoiced after you’ve previewed your session. Separate from the Studio Fee.

Up to 45 minutes in the studio. This session is focused and fast-paced. We recommend aiming for 3-4 headshot looks or 1-2 PR/Editorial looks, but we’ll shoot up to 5 looks if time allows.

Two retouches included.

You must arrive to this session camera-ready, but you can bring an HMUA with you for extra eyes and minor adjustments during the shoot if you like. 

Solo session only. 

HOW IT WORKS:

Upon booking, we invoice you for the Studio Fee portion of your shoot, which you pay up front. You plan and come in for the shoot as usual. Nothing more is due until you receive your gallery.

Within one week of your shoot, you’ll receive a link to review your images via online gallery. You can choose to purchase only the images you need from your session or you can purchase the entire session. The fee for these options are listed above and separate from your Studio Fee. Images will be watermarked during this review process to protect the content.

If you elect to purchase individual photos only, you’ll share your favorites list with us through the gallery and we’ll invoice you for the total number of selections. Once we receive your payment, we’ll upload your unwatermarked images and send you a notice to download.

If you opt to purchase all images, your entire gallery will be replaced with downloadable high resolution, unwatermarked files.

On-Location Sessions

Location shoot pricing is based on a number of factors. Send us a message detailing your project and we’ll send back a quote.

*DISCOUNTS

Referrals and Returning Clients get $25 off the Studio Fee for either session. Remind us that you’ve been in before or tell us how you heard about us when you book.

NUMBER OF LOOKS

The Standard Session is not capped at a particular number. The Short Sesh is capped at 5 looks, though we recommend aiming for 3-4 to ensure quality and versatility.

RETOUCHING

We include retouching on two of your purchased photos if you want it. Additional retouching is $20 per image. You can place a retouching order here.

DEPOSIT

$100 of your Studio Fee is non-refundable once paid. This is considered a deposit or holding fee for holding your appointment on our calendar. Our Rescheduling Policy is detailed here.

SHARED SESSIONS

Share the Standard Session with a friend for an additional $125 Studio Fee. No additional fee is required for image purchases or full session purchases. Both parties’ galleries will be replaced with high res unwatermarked images if the full session fee is paid.

PRO HAIR & MAKEUP ARTISTRY
 
Hiring a pro-HMUA is great if you want to put that task in someone else’s hands. It’s 100% okay to not hire outside help if you feel confident in your own abilities. If you do hire an HMUA, we will provide extra time for you to prep at the studio for the Standard Session because having extra eyes and hands is beneficial for us as well. Generally speaking, sessions with HMUAs move a little slower than those without, but you often get a more diverse portfolio. More info on working with pro HMUAs here >
PAYMENT PLAN
 
Our method of payment collection is a sort of payment plan in itself, but if you want even more flexibility in paying for your session, we offer an interest-free payment plan through a reputable online payment system to make it a little easier to get what you need when you need it. Learn More >
