Headshots and Portraits
Headshots and Portraits
Hi, my name is John Allan and I want to thank you for your interest in having me shoot your headshot or portrait. I’m a fashion portrait, beauty and fine art photographer. I’ve been shooting primarily in the studio since the early 90s.
Pricing
Headshots begin at $500 and portrait sessions begin at $750. There is a 3% surcharge for credit cards.
The base price includes all final image selections color corrected but not detail retouched.
One ‘best’ image is detail retouched for headshots and two for portraits.
Extras
Medium format film (shot on Hasselblad) can be added to your session for an extra fee of $200 per 12 shot roll (which includes film/development and scanning cost).
Makeup and hair or male grooming from a makeup artist, if that’s something the client desires can be added (I will arrange but you’d pay the artist directly).
Additional selections can be detail retouched for $50-75 each depending on complexity. Retouching is commercial quality (for instance I don’t smear the skin).
The session
We shoot as long as it takes to get the shots (typically under two hours for headshots and somewhere around 3 hours for portraits) – I shoot tethered to the computer, so images can be reviewed as we go.
Booking
To book your session, I just need a 50% deposit to reserve your spot, with the balance being due sometime prior to the date of your shoot. The deposit is non-refundable and is applied to total cost of your session.
I look forward to shooting your headshot or portrait.
Best regards,
John Allan
