Pricing

Half-day and Full-day Shoots

Most of my work is undertaken on the basis of half-day and full-day shoots. They give you a fixed-length shoot that can be arranged in the morning or afternoon or both, depending on the best lighting and the size of the brief.

The pricing for these shoots is:

£300 for 3 hours on site with associated developing and editing time
£575 for 6 hours on site with associated developing and editing time

What is included?

A briefing conversation

Expenses

Please note that the fixed-length shoot describes my time on site. This includes photography as well as any scene setting or administration. To maximise time spent on photography you should try to ensure that the spaces to be photographed are found as you expect them to appear in images, and that access and permissions are agreed with all concerned.
