New Pricing Starting September 1

This is a "heads up" post - we're changing some of our beach portrait and digital download pricing effective September 1! 

We haven't increased any of our pricing since January 2015 - And, well... inflation, gas, COVID, etc. You get the picture... We hope everyone understands!

But the good news is, we think everyone is really going to like one of the changes we are making to digital downloads! Keep reading to find out more!

First, we are increasing our beach portrait session price to $315. 

(Again, we haven't increased the price of our sessions in over 7 years and we feel it is time.)

Any sessions reserved BEFORE September 1 will be reserved at our old pricing ($285). (That means you could book a session for the end of 2022 or any time in 2023 NOW and lock in the old price!) 

For dates reserved on or after September 1, 2022, sessions will switch to the new price of $315.

Next, digital downloads... 

We will be increasing the price of a full gallery download to $215. This price will apply to all galleries created on or after September 1, 2022. Old galleries will retain the old pricing, for now.

Just to be clear - if your session takes place on or after September 1, 2022, this new gallery download pricing will be applied to your gallery.

But the next part is the part we think everyone is really going to like:

Our customers have been asking for retouched digital downloads for a looooong time. We are finally able to do this in our shopping cart and we're excited to be able to do so, again, starting September 1, 2022.

This option will ONLY apply to INDIVIDUAL downloads (NOT gallery downloads). INDIVIDUAL photo downloads will now be priced at $14.50 apiece and will include a proof delay (just like prints) so we have time to retouch the files before you receive your download link. We use a professional retouching service for this and it takes a day or two. The additional $6 will cover this retouching service.

So, good news, you no longer have to order prints first to get retouched digital files!

Again, this pricing will be applied to all NEW galleries created on or after September 1. 

***If you would like the proof delayed individual digital file option on your existing (pre-September 1, 2022) gallery, just let me know and I can change you over to that pricelist on a case by case basis. (This will also change your full gallery download pricing to $215, FYI.)

Finally, good news, we aren't making ANY changes to print prices at this time! Our print prices remain extremely low compared to most area photographers.

FYI - I will be working over the next month to update pricing info around our website so if you see varying prices that is why!
