FAQs

I'm not familiar with the term “legacy portraits.” What happens during a session and what is your pricing?

When we say “legacy portraits” we mean creating a legacy that lasts a lifetime with magazine-worthy images you'll treasure forever. Whether you're an individual man or woman, a couple, a family, a mother and daughter, or a high school senior, we specialize in Vanity Fair-style portraits, but your vision leads the way – Vogue, natural, casual, 'come as you are,' or something entirely unique; we'll craft it together.

Your $750 booking retainer secures your session and includes a personalized design consultation, wardrobe styling, professional hair and makeup, unlimited outfit changes, and your entire portrait session. This also includes a $500 credit towards your choice of individual matted prints, stunning wall art, handcrafted Italian folio box collections or our Signature Art Book album – the ultimate way to preserve your precious memories.

Pricing starts at $500, and goes ups from there depending upon what you need. The average client spends $3k-$5k, although how much you spend is entirely up to you. There's no hard sell or pressure here – you only buy what you love! Our job is to create beautiful images, so you will love them all!

Do you do headshots?

Yes! Get a professional headshot taken during our “Express Day” sessions. Held every 1-2 months in our studio, an Express Day headshot session includes professional hair and makeup, up to three outfit changes, and same-day image selection.

Pricing starts at $375 for the first two images, with additional images at $290 each. Ready to use online and print.

Can't make it to our Express Day? We also offer personalized headshot sessions for a truly tailored experience with more flexibility in scheduling and options.

I’m not sure if I need a headshot or a personal branding session. What's the difference?

You can find more information about that difference here.

I think I need personal branding, not just a headshot. What does a session include and what is your pricing?

Ready to elevate your brand? After a brief discovery call, a $750 booking retainer secures your consultation date on our calendar and unlocks your complete personal branding session experience.

The process begins with a one-hour consultation and in-depth business questionnaire – a crucial step to ensure your images are strategically aligned with your brand, overall business objectives, and attract your ideal clients. The retainer also covers your entire portrait session, including professional hair and makeup, wardrobe styling guidance, unlimited outfit changes, and your reveal session where you will get to select your favorite images.

You'll receive a $500 credit that you can apply towards any image collection. Collections start at $2500. Our top-tier collection includes a complimentary personal stylist, featuring an in-home wardrobe consultation, personalized shopping guidance, and in-studio presence on your shoot day for complete wardrobe confidence.

We also offer a dedicated personal stylist for men who want specialized expertise. All our premium styling services are available as an add-on with any collection. And best of all, as a business owner, your personal branding photography is a 100% tax-deductible advertising expense!

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes, we do! We offer pre-payment bonus plans, where you'll receive extra images at no additional cost, and other flexible payment options. We're happy to discuss what works best for you during your consultation.

I want to do this, but I’m very nervous…

We hear you. It's completely natural to feel that way. But here's the secret: everyone feels a little nervous in front of the camera.

Our mission? To turn those nerves into fun and joy.

We create a space where you can breathe, relax, and simply be yourself. No pressure, no forced smiles, just a celebration of the real you.

Do you provide the wardrobe for the portrait session?

We celebrate the unique beauty and individuality of every woman. Each one has her own style, her own story to tell. That's why we encourage you to bring your own wardrobe to your portrait session. From casual chic to power suits to glamorous gowns, your clothes are an extension of your personality.

During our consultation, we'll brainstorm together to create a variety of looks that capture your essence. Whether you dream of timeless elegance, modern edge, or playful charm, we'll tailor the experience to your desires.

From boudoir to boardroom to runway, let's create a portrait session that reflects the multifaceted woman you are.

We love you the way you are right now! We believe every body is beautiful and deserves to be celebrated. We know the right poses and the best camera angles to highlight your unique beauty, so you’ll feel confident in every photo. You don’t have to worry about a thing. We’ll direct you through the whole process. We’ve had countless people feel empowered after seeing their photos, amazed that they didn’t have to diet or sign up to a gym to do it! You are perfect just as you are. We challenge you to come in and have a photoshoot with us, so we can prove it to you.

Do you sell wall art?

Yes, we do! Elevate your home with museum-quality wall art, handcrafted in Italy. Our custom designed art collections, available in sizes up to 30x45, are more than décor; they’re an expression of you, cherished heirlooms designed to be admired for generations.
