   For High School Senior Portrait Sessions, I offer two packages:

 

  **Package #1:** Up to 90 minutes at your chosen location, with multiple outfit changes and up to 20 retouched images for $300.

  **Package #2:** Up to 2 hours, combining studio portraits and location shots for $500, including multiple outfit changes and up to 30 retouched images.

 

  To maximize our time during location shoots, I use a portable "changing tarp" for quick and easy outfit changes, especially in areas without private facilities. I've used this successfully for engagement and fashion shoots in various settings, from urban locations to beaches. Having someone assist, like a mom, can be helpful.

 

  My retouching services cover blemishes, stray hairs, and any visible imperfections on clothing. I typically schedule these shoots in the afternoon or evening to take advantage of the best outdoor lighting, and on weekdays, as weekend availability is limited during warmer months.

 

  Every Senior Photoshoot includes a high-resolution gallery of unmarked, culled images. You can select, download, and print these photos, or have them further edited by anyone you choose. I focus on taking photos and prefer not to spend time on custom albums and printed photos, as my costs were higher for those services. Plus, clients often prefer to have their prints done locally anyway. Therefore, beyond the initial session fee, there are no additional costs unless permits or entrance fees are required by private businesses or county parks.

 

  Regarding permits, please note that many parks now have photography restrictions and require permits for posed photos. For example, Milwaukee's Seven Bridges in Grant Park requires a permit. However, I rarely shoot in such locations, as they tend to be crowded and offer the same backgrounds as everyone else. I prefer to use my own style and have a variety of go-to locations near Milwaukee that offer beautiful beachfront landscapes, rustic buildings, or unique urban settings that are free to use.

 

  Many of these permits require commercial liability insurance, which I carry through the PPA's (Professional Photographers of America) recommended insurance carrier.
