2012 is bringing a lot of new and exciting changes to Emily Dobson Photography! I have new goals and new plans to reach those goals. I’m currently working my tail off to try and get everything ready before February hits…and I know it will hit all too soon. So, in regards to portrait sessions, there are three major changes taking place in 2012.
First and foremost, NEW SESSION FEES!
My 2012 portrait session fee is $75. This includes Children, Family, Newborn, Engagements, and Bridal. Each session includes approximately 1-1.5 hours of shooting (with the exception of newborns, which takes much longer), enhancements and retouching on 25-35 portraits.
Then, I have two options for my 2012 seniors!
1) Deluxe – includes professional hair and makeup application! 2-2.5 hours, on-location session, 4-5 outfits, and 35-45 portraits. $150
2) Basic – includes 1-1.5 hours, on-location session, 2-3 outfits, and 25-35 portraits. $75
As always, the session retainer and a signed portrait agreement form are required to reserved your session. With every session, I have a $150 minimum purchase requirement.
Secondly, CUSTOM PLANNING and ORDERING SESSIONS and GREAT TURNAROUND times for each and every portrait client!
All of my sessions are conducted on-location and by appointment only. I don’t work in a studio where clients come in back-to-back posing in front of the same backdrop all day long. I want each session to be unique and truly a representation of my clients. ENTER: Custom Planning Session! By conducting a planning session prior to your portrait session, I can find out exactly what YOU want and the vision you have for your portraits. We’ll discuss everything from what to wear and what props to incorporate to the color of your walls and what size portraits will will best compliment your wall space. I can come to your home for this planning session or we can chat via Skype! (I love technology.)
Following your session, you will come to my house for a private viewing and ordering appointment. Usually questions arise during the ordering process. I’ve found that it is best for everyone involved to hold this appointment so I can guide you through the ordering process and answer any questions you may have. After your ordering session, an online gallery will be published for friends and family upon request.
ENTER: New Turnaround Time! One of my business goals for 2012 is to improve the turnaround time of client orders. With the help of each client, I plan to guarantee a 14-day turnaround. After each session, I cull the images and select the best of the best to enhance and retouch. I will have my enhancements and touch-ups complete, and your ordering session scheduled within 7 days of your portrait session. As long as your order is placed during the viewing and ordering session, I will have them ready for pick-up 7 days from the appointment (14 from your actual session date).
Finally, NEW PRODUCT PRICES!
Whether you’ve done business with me in the past, previously inquired or you’re just now hearing about Emily Dobson Photography, I encourage you to fill out the contact form and request full pricing. My new 2012 prices are extremely competitive in the professional photography industry with a starting price of only $28 for a mounted gift print. Mounted wall portraits (such as an 11×14) start at $65. Plus, I offer collections, which creates incredible value for your investment. You don’t want to miss out!
Without further adieu…
