- You pay a non-refundable deposit at the time of booking. For sessions with a makeup artist, this deposit is $200, for all other sessions, it’s $100. Of course the deposit goes towards the price of the session.
- You come to the session at my beautiful, big, air-conditioned studio in Santa Monica. Free parking, rest rooms, water dispenser, coffee, makeup station, steamer, hair dryer.
- I am lovely, unjudgemental and easy-going. I have a silly accent — unlike you, you perfectly spoken actor. I’m also really good at taking pictures. I’ve done this over 6000 times, in London, New York and LA. And I’m called Wolf! You cannot lose.
- We will take anything between 80-200 shots per look.
- The shots will be available online for review latest by the evening of the following day.
- As an add-on, I can make you a shortlist of the best shots we take to help you choose your shots more quickly.
- You decide on which shots you’d like retouched.
- You receive the retouched images within 10 working days from the day you send me your choices.
- The retouched images are good to print and to submit to Backstage/Actors Access/IMDb/Deadline.
- You can book a makeup artist for any of my sessions. Just let me know that you’d like a makeup artist at your session when you email me.
- The makeup artist’s fee is in addition to my session fee and is payable directly to them on the day.
- I only work with makeup artists I have vetted and who I know I can trust to be the best in the industry. They are all calm hands with lots of experience. We work well together and they know how to do makeup that works perfectly with my lighting.
- Headshots Rate (Women): $175 for one look + $25 each additional look; add hair +$50
- Headshots Rate (Men): $150 for 1 look; + $25 each additional look; Hair is included — unless significant hair changes are required, in which case hair is +$50.
- The makeup artist will be there for the entirety of the session. So if you book a three-look session, the makeup artist’s fee is for three looks etc.
- Portraits Rate (Women): $300 flat fee; add hair +$50
- Portraits Rate (Men): $275 flat fee; Hair is included — unless significant hair changes are required, in which case hair is +$50.
- The makeup artist will be there for the entirety of the session.
- Hair: We will only do light hair in the studio. This means the makeup artist will work with your hair when it’s dry and clean: they can add a little curl, or a subtle wave, or flat iron to finish your hair. That’s normally all you’ll need for a headshot session. But no blowouts or fancy updos — they tend to take too much time, and the studio is not set up for washing hair. If you’d like to have only hair done (and don’t need a makeup artist), the best thing to do is to go to a hairdresser right before the session.
- An 1-hour unlimited looks session
- A two-look session
- These sessions take 20 minutes max, and cost $140. They do not include retouched shots, because the whole point with digitals is that they are absolutely natural and unretouched and show you exactly as you come through the door.
- If you’re booking an actors headshot session and also want digitals, select it as an add-on while you book.
- They’re a slightly different creative process. If you’d like to have some portrait style photographs as well as headshots, let me know and we’ll discuss it beforehand. (Read more here: Portraits vs headshots)
- Only one discount per booking.

Unlimited Looks session vs Looks-based sessions:
If you are trying to decide whether an unlimited looks sessions or a two- or more look session is for you, see below for a comparison.
If you want two looks, a two-look session is better value, and is less rushed. For more looks than that, it’s a question of how quickly you can and want to work. If you want to knock out four to six looks in an hour without worrying too much about background and lighting changes, an unlimited session might work better for you. Keep in mind that you might still find you want to order additional retouched shots afterwards (at $60 each). With a looks-based session, each look adds about 20 minutes of time, and retouches are already included for each look you book. If you have a makeup artist present, there is time for her to change your looks, and there’s also more time to fine tune lighting and background choices.
Modeling digitals:
Portraits, PR and Publicity shots
Discounts:
Deposit/Cancellations
When you book, you make a non-refundable deposit ($200 for sessions with makeup artist, $100 for all other sessions). This goes towards the price of the session. You can postpone once with this deposit, as long as you contact me five clear days before your session. If you need to postpone again, a new deposit is payable. If you cancel or postpone the session less than five clear days before your appointed time, you forfeit your deposit.
Payments:
The remaining session payment (session fee minus deposit) must be received on or before the day of the session. You can pay online via card, by Zelle or in cash. No checks.
Reshoots, refunds, revisions:
I take great care to communicate to you how I work before and during the shoot. We review shots as we go along. My entire process is cooperative and I keep checking with you that what we’re doing is working for you. Likewise, I expect you to share your needs and requirements clearly so we can get you the perfect shots. This concerns lighting, framing, backgrounds plus hair and makeup. Photographs are artistic creations and interpretation is subjective. Therefore, I do not offer reshoots, revisions or refunds other than for technical failures or malfunctions that prevent me from delivering the agreed upon number of technically proficient images in clear focus.
All the above is non-negotiable. No exceptions.
