Frequently Asked Questions
What should a portrait session cost?
Session fees of $150–500 covering time and talent, with prints/digitals sold separately — or all-inclusive pricing of $300–800+. Include your edit time: a 1-hour session usually carries 2–4 hours of post.
Session fee + products vs all-inclusive — which model earns more?
Product-based sales (IPS) average far higher per client but require sales sessions; all-inclusive digital pricing is simpler and scales with volume. Match the model to your market and temperament.
How many images should a portrait session deliver?
Typical: 20–40 finished images from a 1-hour session. Cap it in writing — unlimited delivery invites unlimited editing hours you never priced.
