Pricing Info
15% of hourly rates go directly to Palestinian families
Payment is due the day of your shoot/event unless you have discussed a payment plan with me. Any space rental fees are due on the day the booking is made.
PHOTOSHOOTS – $250-500/HR (sliding scale, see below)
You will have full creative control for your shoot. We can discuss your ideas prior to the shoot and I will do what I can to make your vision come to life. Feel free to share references and inspiration.
You can share your shoot (and the cost of your shoot) with friends! Multi-person sessions are welcome, just let me know (rates do not increase)!
Shoot location is up to you, if your chosen location requires a booking fee you are responsible for that fee. I have a home studio available in the SF Bay area at no extra charge, reach out to me for details about the space if you are interested.
Your shoot includes 1 sample edit of my choice, 4 edited photos of your choice, and access to all unedited photos. Additional edits are all available for purchase at sliding scale rates.
PERFORMANCE/REHEARSAL PHOTOS – $150-450/show (up to 2.5 hrs) (sliding scale, see below)
Includes 2 edited photos of your choice for each act at no additional charge, and access to all unedited photos. Additional edits are available for purchase.
If you will be having a dress rehearsal this is always an ideal opportunity for photos because I have more freedom to move around and capture the perfect shot!
COACHING PHOTOS (during a circus or pole class) – $50-100/HR (sliding scale, see below)
Includes 1 sample edit of my choice, 4 edited photos of your choice, and access to all unedited photos. Additional edits are all available for purchase.
EVENT PHOTOGRAPHY (wedding or similar) – $200-500+/HR (not including travel/lodging/etc. if applicable) (sliding scale)
Please reach out to discuss your needs!
How Much Should I Pay?
I use a sliding scale for all of my rates, which means you get to pick what you pay within the scale. I feel passionate about keeping sliding rates because the income levels of the people I work with vary greatly, and money doesn’t have the same value for everyone. If you are unsure what rate is appropriate for you, I suggest referring to the Green Bottle sliding scale (created by Alexis J. Cunningfolk) below.
If you are currently experiencing financial difficulty and your work and/or wellbeing would directly benefit from photos (ex: photos to promote your services), please reach out. Even if you cannot afford the lowest end of my sliding scale, I have monthly slots available for folks experiencing financial hardship and am happy to negotiate lower rates and/or trades.
If you are reasonably able to pay the higher end of my sliding scale (or above), please do. This enables me to continue offering sliding rates and working with folks in more challenging financial situations.
