⭐️ HOW WE WORK & WHAT YOU GET ⭐️

My prices cover a time intensive comprehensive & exhaustive personalized advice process from what to wear, assistance on applying to Agencies and ways to plug into to the local community.

Our work starts with extensive wardrobe advice and responding to outfit texts at all times of day.

Each Outfit takes 35 min of painstaking set up & detail management followed by expert posing direction to maximize your best angles
then real-time back of camera review as we go to ensure we get the shots you want, need and feel great about while still feeling "like yourself".

BEFORE:

STRATEGIC WARDROBE GUIDANCE

Before the shoot, I spend extensive personal time 1:1 texting time

to give specific guidance & feedback on creating a strategic & competitive

wardrobe of “costuming” that will increase your chances of being chosen

for auditions or booked off of your pictures.

It’s hard for a lot of people to know what to wear that looks good on camera,

and also because because it requires dressing like the jobs we want

vs how we like to dress.

DURING:

CARE-FULL SHOOTING

During the shoot - I work hard at coaching you through every shot,

ensuring all the details are on point,

and that you feel like yourself in your pictures.

Each outfit takes about 20 to 35 minutes to capture

because I capture each outfit as chest up theatrical/tvFilm headshots, waist up commercial & 3/4 body commercial lifestyle portraits

and feet-to-face - all smiling, not smiling, standing,

sitting all kinds of poses. And Where it makes sense,

and does not take an additional extreme amount of time,

we also can do jacket on off, with/without tie, beard then shave;

or something quick like that. It does not cover same pants,

but a completely different top :)

This comprehensive variety serves to make your portfolio

commercially marketable in our greater OHIO region

as well as competitive in all the national markets.

AFTER:

STRATEGIC EDITING that EXPANDS your PORTFOLIO

& MULTIPLIES WHAT WE SHOT

Afterwards- I sort and keep the best shots then

edit them all for you to keep & use as you wish.

Each outfit will result in approximately 30-50 best shots

which will all be edited as shot PLUS ADDITIONAL VERSIONS

to create MORE VARIETY by color-changing your clothes or background

where possible and where it makes sense

All edited images are delivered in your own gallery, as Ready to Go,

High Resolution JPEG images but less than 2MB,

meaning small enough to email or upload to casting sites.

KEEP ALL OF YOUR PICTURES

Your shoot is narrowed down to a "Best of the Session" and Final Full Quality Edited into a permanent personal Gallery Link that you can download & keep all of your photos

Your pictures are delivered as Edited, Quality Perfected, High Resolution 4x6 ratio Jpegs for crisp viewing online and printing

Because of the painstaking time and attention we make at perfecting your hair, makeup and outfits, before and during the shoot, your images will be Ready-to-Go

Detailed retouching won't be needed but can be purchased for $20 per image on Theatricals

PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP

a SEPARATE but CRITICAL INVESTMENT

**Everyone Must Have Picture Perfect Problem Solving Makeup**

To get the most value from your shoot, all clients, men and women, must have color correcting base makeup to ensure effective elimination of dark circles, redness, blemishes and full face coverage so that light will bounce and sculpt you vs. absorb and wash you out.

Makeup ensures a skin perfect capture and that no retouching is needed and that every expression, every shot variation in your Gallery is ready for you when you need it.

I partner with some of the best Makeup Artists in the city and their services can be booked separately to occur in the studio, right before our shoot.

Hair & Makeup Investment varies per artist and can be Hair & Makeup or just makeup - average is $150-160 for hair & makeup

RETOUCHING

Due to the painstaking amount of time & attention that is spent managing your makeup, wardrobe before & during your shoot ~ specific image retouching is NOT included in the core price.

For CLOSE-UP FACE SHOT ONLY ... … Quick Heal & Flyaway retouching can be purchased afterwards for $20 per image
