Greetings, thank you for your interest in commissioning a shoot with me.
I am passionate about providing rich, high-quality work for my community,
and given that you have reached this point in our arrangements, I am sure we
will create something special. Following is the process we will take, and my rates for that process.
For portraits, each of my shoots are planned individually, so it is important that we
schedule a consultation. My consultations are mandatory and cost $50, payable before
or immediatley after we meet.
A consultation consists of a 30-60 minute meeting at a cafe or over Zoom. At the consultation, I present a proposal for the
shoot that I make based on your description of what you want kind of photos you want. This presentation will likely
consist of a mood board, location ideas, lighting ideas, potential shoot dates, and a price estimate.
Of course, the scope of our work is unlimited, and there are many resources at our disposal. Your budget,
along with our plans, will impact our final rate. Added expenses like lighting, studio rental fees,
assistants, stylists, makeup artists, hairstylists, etc. can be included.
If you would like to hire me, please send me an email (coleschmidt01@live.com) or DM me on Instagram. For portrait sessions
please send me an introduction to the shoot concept
(eg "daytime acting headshots" or "halloween themed photoshoot for my drag persona") and what days you have available for
our consultation. The introduction can be as long as you like, but the more detail you provide me, the better I can
build my proposal. After we agree on a consutation date I expect the consultation fee of $50 to be paid directly before or after our meeting.
