The ABP Benefits:
It's easy & fun. I manage the salon appointments, planning, locations, and posing so you can relax, knowing everything is taken care of for you.
Practical Session Options with all-inclusive sessions designed to deliver the type and number of portraits you need, whether you want a lot or a little.
Up-front Pricing: All-inclusive session pricing lets you make one decision when you book, and then you can enjoy the experience. You'll keep all the best images from your shoot, digital and prints included, and don't have to worry about anything else.
Minis On-Demand An ABP bonus, my seniors get half price minis until they graduate- because you never know when you and your family and friends might need a session.
Your shoot, your way: studio, outdoors, or both. My studio is right downtown, and is the ideal home-base for your shoot. And YES you can bring your friends, your family, your pets, your hobbies and there's no extra charge. Yes, detailed retouching, submission to the yearbook, and a private online gallery app are ALL included with your session fee.
The Most Gorgeous Products- From Stunning Bespoke Boxed Sets custom made in the UK, to American-made Hardwood frames, or a velvet-wrapped handmade album, you get gorgeousness all-around, whatever your style.
Your Key Questions Answered:
How much do you charge? My senior families spend somewhere in the range of 500-1500, but it varies based on the session and products they choose.
How long is a shoot? It depends on what you want. Seniors can choose a full evening sunset photoshoot which lasts about 4 hours including the salon time, or a classic 2 hour shoot, or a little morning shoot option which is generally around an hour.
Can I bring a friend? Yes. Your shoot is your time- you can bring who you like.
Can I bring my dog? Yes. Also your horse, guinea pig, chinchilla, or siblings.
Can I split a shoot? Yes. I'm happy to offer the "Share a Shoot" option to my seniors. For an small add-on fee, you and a friend both get your own gallery, prints and the option of styling at Hair by Ellie & Co.
How many pictures can I keep? The total number depends on the length of your shoot. Each session option includes a different number of finished photos.
What do I wear? I'll help you with that once you book.
How many outfits can I have? Depends on how fast you can change with the Signature Session. With the shorter shoots, it's 2-5 looks, with the option to add on.
What if it rains? We bring umbrellas, we go indoors, or we reschedule.
I don't know how to pose. No worries. I pose you.
What if I breakout right before the shoot? You won't be the first or only senior to have that happen- but we take care of you with Hair by Ellie, and Photoshop by Amy.
Do I have to get hair and makeup? Nope. It's a complimentary option for the signature shoot, and an add-on option for the classic session. I highly recommend it, but never require it. You should do what feels most comfortable for you!
Can I get senior pictures in the winter? Your yearbook portrait is due in the fall, so we do the main sessions in the summer. If you want senior photoshoots all year, you can always book a Mini.
Which senior portrait session should I get? Depends on how many pics you want, and how many looks you want. If you have many outfits, or want pictures that might take a while (specific dance poses, things that require cooperation from animals, sports moves/tricks) or you want to hit several specific locations in and around town, you should definitely choose the signature shoot. If you only want a handful of great senior photos, the express session might be all you need.
Tell me again, what does the senior session fee include? All sessions include a set number of edited senior photos in both print and digital formats. The long sessions deliver more pictures than the short sessions. So no matter the session, the fee includes: the photo session, your edited gallery, prints and digital files.
