CONSULTATION
Complimentary 1 hour
HOURLY RATE
$200
Clients who have used this service were for casual photoshoots (head shots/lifestyle/creative photos, etc.), private parties, school events, film festivals, and Press/Media Coverage to name a few.
DAILY RATE
$600 ($150/HR) - HALF DAY RATE (UP TO 4 HOURS)
$1000 ($125/HR) - FULL DAY RATE (UP TO 8 HOURS)
If you need more hours after the Half or Full Day Rate, then the Hourly Rate will apply.
PHOTO RATE
Use this option instead of the hourly or daily rates.
$200-700 per photo
This will depend on your project and time will not be the focus.
A project can take 1 hour or 17 hours, the goal is to get the perfect shot.
If you decide not to purchase any of the photos, a flat rate of $500 per day during the course of the project will be invoiced. No Exceptions.
1 day = 8 hours
If I worked 17 hours in 1 day, the invoice will be calculated as:
2 days + 1 hour = $1,062.50
1 day (8 hours) = $500 x 2 days = $1,000
1 hour = 62.50 ($500 / 8 hours)
Use this option if you know what photos you need.
Clients have used this for food and/or product photography.

Understanding Copyright Laws
A copyright is a legal device that gives the creator of a literary, artistic, musical, or other creative work the sole right to publish and sell that work. Copyright owners have the right to control the reproduction of their work, including the right to receive payment for that reproduction. An author may grant or sell those rights to others, including publishers or recording companies. Violation of a copyright is called infringement.
Copyright is a property right. Under the Federal Copyright Act of 1976, photographs are protected by copyright from the moment of creation.
According to the U.S. Copyright Office, the owner of the “work” is generally the photographer or, in certain situations, the employer of the photographer. Even if a person hires a photographer to take pictures of a wedding, for example, the photographer will own the copyright in the photographs unless the copyright in the photographs is transferred, in writing and signed by the copyright owner, to another person. The subject of the photograph generally has nothing to do with the ownership of the copyright in the photograph. If the photographer is no longer living, the rights in the photograph are determined by the photographer’s will or passed as personal property by the applicable laws of interstate succession.
