MY PROFESSIONAL FEES
Many of the fees you see below will probably not apply to the photography service you have booked for but it is important for me to be transparent about all the possible fees that could potentially be included in the final invoice if they come up or get requested later in the process.
- Deposit/Booking Fee
-
The session fee starts at $395 for portrait sessions of a single person or a 50% deposit of the estimated cost of the project will be due at the time of booking my services.
- Hourly Rate
-
My hourly rate is $395 an hour for events when applicable. This rate is a standalone rate and when it is not part of any package or quote. The hourly rate is prorated to the next ½ hour. There is a required minimum of 2 hours for events or hired by the hour. Commercial rates are based on the project requirements.
- Travel Fees
-
A travel fee of $25 per every 15 miles will apply for sessions further than 15 miles from Tysons Corner, Virginia.
- Parking Fees
-
Non-validated or non-waived parking fees may apply and show on the final invoice.

A fee of $395 will be incurred for on-location photoshoots as opposed to having them at my Tysons studio applicable to commercial and business photo shoots.

These are access fees that a venue may charge for the use of its premises to have the photo session. The fees will be added to the final invoice.
