Project stages and rates

After you submit the 30% prepayment, we will book the photoshoot and discuss the details. This can be done both online or during an offline session.

Excellent communication at the preproduction stage ensures the success of the entire project. It’s important to fully discuss your wishes and expectations. I will happily discuss your ideas and offer my suggestions. We will confirm the main goals and set up a project plan.

It’s no problem if you’re not too keen on doing anything related to photoshoot concept or organization. I’ll handle the whole project on a turn-key basis. However, this will result in an increase in my rate.

First of all, you will fill out a brief with a detailed overview of your brand’s DNA: mission, values, history, and targeted audience. All this will help me understand the associations, connotations, and emotions that must be showcased in the photos.

I can prepare the concept myself or with your help. This stage results in a list of deliverables, including titles, descriptions, a mood board, and sample references for light, style, location, and model type.

After the deliverables are confirmed, I will send you a quote which will include:

• all photoshoot expenses,
• prepayment/additional payment information,
• work hours (depending on product quantity),
• photoshoot schedule (including breaks),
• a schedule outline.

The next stage is preparation: location scouting and booking, selection of crew members and all photoshoot participants.

Important: Locations usually demand a 100% prepayment. Most studios do not reimburse the rental payment if the photoshoot is cancelled. Taking this in mind, I do recommend that your treat dates and schedule with the utmost seriousness.

I need to know the number of looks and lighting schemes in advance to calculate the optimal time for efficient work and high-quality results.

Photoshoots can be postponed a single time, provided you notify me at least 24 hours in advance. Do bear in mind that the postponement can result in added studio fees and specialists’ wages.

In five workdays after the photoshoot, I will send you a cloud storage link. You will select the photos for image editing.

When selecting the photos, do note your preferences in terms of editing and prepare a list of requirements. If you need a consultation, I’m promptly available and prepared to offer any assistance.

After you’ve selected the photos, it will take me 15 workdays (three weeks) to complete the image editing.

Upon the completion of the project, the photos will be accessible in my cloud storage gallery for three months. During this time, you can download the photos and select photos for additional processing. Afterwards, I will delete the photos and you will lose the opportunity to access that batch of photos.

I provide photos in the high-quality JPEG format and in a reduced format, perfect for publishing online. If you require photos of a specific size or RAW files (pre-processed photos), please let me know as early as possible.

All photos are available for publishing online as part of the brand or corporate ad campaign. If you’re planning to use the photos for outdoor advertising, print advertising, or product packaging, I will kindly ask you to notify me in advance.

I retain the right to use processed photos as part of my portfolio: on my site, social media accounts, exhibitions, etc.

Firstly, we will discuss the ideas behind the photoshoot. You will need to send me samples of inspiring imagery. These can include both my own photos and visual elements by other authors. References allow me to understand your expectations in terms of light, look, style, and location.

After we confirm the date and time of the photoshoot and you submit the 50% prepayment, we will begin to actively prepare for the photoshoot.

I will assist you with the photoshoot concept and studio selection. If necessary, I will bring you in contact with excellent stylists and makeup artists. We will create a joint chat to discuss all ideas and details. Hereby, all members of our team will be aware of our goals and possible changes.

If no stylist or makeup artist is required, I will be on hand to help you create your photoshoot look. Together we will put together a balanced and beautiful photoshoot with you as the main star.

Ad and private photoshoot rates

* Advertising photography offers an excellent way of promoting your business, products, or brands. Ad campaign specifics are taken into consideration. The goal is to create photos that will fit with the general vibe of the campaign. The visual content should evoke emotions and be retained in the audience’s subconsciousness for as long as possible. That way the ad will be much more effective.
