The #1 question photographers ask about my Raw Portrait sessions is, “But… what do you charge?”

…as if no retouching makes a portrait less valuable.

…as if no hair or makeup or new clothes makes a client less worthy.

…as if an artist’s vision and ability to CONNECT with their subject isn’t more valuable than the fanciest studio in the world.

I get it though. This question also delayed me from offering this for nearly 2 YEARS, even though my heart was calling me to do it.

So, my short answer? I charge the same as I do for all my other sessions. My highly stylized shoots maintain a $3600 average. My Raw portrait sessions have a $3300 average. But the Raw sessions require less cost and take a quarter the time, so they’re MORE profitable.

PEOPLE HIRE US TO CREATE MAGIC FOR THEM. AS LONG AS WE BELIEVE THE EXPERIENCE IS WORTH IT, WE CAN OFFER IMMENSE VALUE AND CHARGE ACCORDINGLY.
