BIG changes coming for 2012!
Posted on October 12, 2011
It’s so hard to believe that this year is almost over! My girls are more than a little excited about trick-or-treating in a few weeks, and it always seems like after Halloween that the days before Christmas just fly by. So, I decided to go ahead and anounce my new pricing structure and format changes for 2012 a bit earlier than I had planned.
During this first year of business in the Quad Cities, I have found that around 80% of my clients usually choose to buy the cd of their session. This has made me question whether I want to continue to sell prints or become a strictly digital photographer. After plenty of thought and research, I have decided to change my pricing structure and take the more digital route. As of January 2012, I will be including a USB flash drive with every session instead of offering the cd of images as a separate purchase. I opted for the flash drive over cd/dvd because it is a much more convenient and durable way to house your photos and is convenient to back-up and share with others. With this new addition, I will be having some portrait pricing and package changes starting in January 2012. I will still be offering prints, wall canvases, and other specialty items as additional purchases.
Here is the new pricing structure for 2012:
The Ultimate: This session is up to 2 hours, and it includes 30-35 high-resolution images on a USB flash drive along with a custom 5×5 photo book with the images from your session. This is great for larger and extended families, high school senior photos, and newborns as well.- $449
The Ideal This session is up to an hour long and can only be scheduled for families of 5 or less (extra $25 per additional person). 20-25 high-resolution images are included in this session on a USB flash drive along with a custom 5×5 photo book with the images from your session. This session is perfect for all ranges of photos, including family, children, engagement sessions, business headshots, and more! – $289
Simplicity This is a 30-minute mini-session and can include up to 4 people (extra $25 per additional person). 10-15 high-resolution images are included in this session on a USB flash drive along with a spiral-bound set of 4×6 prints of the images from your session. This package is great for business headshots or capturing children’s milestones (newborn sessions are not included with this package due to the extensive timeframe needed)! $159
I will continue to have special deals and themed children’s mini-sessions a few times a year as well!
**** In the next month or so, I will be adding info on wedding packages. So, be sure to keep checking back for new updates!
