If you thought school was hard, just try to pick a photographer for senior or class photos. I did a search and I got confused. All the hype about packages, units, changes it made my head spin so I have put together a package that you can afford based on what you want and that will make you and your parents happy. Let me try to answer your questions first.
How Much?  $ 318  is the total, no prices not listed, no hidden cost, no shipping cost, no extra charges, period. 
Why so cheap?  The location is my studio, while other photographers hate to travel, I love to get outside and like the challenge of event photography. I don't have a big studio and the overhead that goes with it and base the business on my name, quality photographs, referral and volume.

What do I get for it?  You get 20 Point that you can use anyway you want. Points? I want photos. Let me explain:

  •   8x10=  2 Points

  •   5x7 =   1 Points 

  •   4x6 =   1 Points

  • 11x14=   5 Points

  • Wallets= 2 Points ( Two sheets, each sheet has two photos of the same image) so you get four alike.

  • a CD    = 4 Points,   with up to  5 images you pick along with a letter of copyright so you can produce additional prints in the future, and that you can send a copy to your school editor, and I'll also put smaller jpegs so you can email or post them on your site.

 Is that really true? Yes if you want (10) 8x10's of one image that's ok, it comes out to 20 points.  However you want to mix and match, you do the math. This way there is no confusion about how many poses, outfit changes or complex packages. You can end up with 5 different looks in 5 different sizes if you like. Let me see if I got this right,(1) 11x14=5points, (1) disc=4 points, (2) 8x10's=4 points, (3) 5x7's=3 points,(16) wallets=4points. That's right you
tell me what you want.

What if I would like additional images? You can purchase additional images in any size from our Price Page.
Any additional photos ordered with the original order, I will deduct 10% from them. Yes you can even get the collages. I'll put together one of a kind collages, two image portrait or a poster and email you a proof.

How's it work?  I come to the location and take photos, lots of photos, you pick the number of outfits, you pick the poses, you pick the place for one hour. I want you to be in comfortable surroundings.
I will arrive before you appointment time and get set-up and take a few minutes to meet with you and go over what shots you would like.
Your time starts then, one hour is more than enough time to get that special shot. Please be on time, I understand that thing happens so I will give you my cell number. 
Then I will create a page and link on the site for you to view. Then you pick up to 5 images that you like and we print them in any combination that you like.

What if I'm not happy? If after I post the images on-line your not happy, call me and I will refund your deposit
100%, period. You can't loose, I want you to be happy and to have something to look back on, and I also want you to
have a positive experience and refer me to your friends.

Where & When? Your choice, at your home, park, wherever that you feel comfortable. Summer and fall are great times for outside but we have even done shots at dusk. I travel with my studio, we can set up a backdrop and do the shot that mom wants and you still have four more choice. 

Speaking of Travel: There will be no travel charge if your location is in the Harrisburg, Gettysburg, York area and it's less than 30 miles one way or 60 miles round trip.

What if it's further?  Add .50 cents per mile. So if you lived 50 miles away your cost would be 100 miles round trip minus the free 60 miles equals 40 miles at .50 per mile equals 20 dollars. Get a friend or two together and save.

Where's the fine print? Right here, Deposit of 1/2 down when booking the date and the rest when you pick the 5 images, then I will process your order and mail it to you.
Parent or guardian present, or with there permission. I would prefer that you bring your parent, guardian boyfriend/girlfriend or a friend along, please no more than 2-3 otherwise it turns into distractions for you and this is your time.
Punctuality, I hate to keep people waiting so if you going to be late call my cell. Your time still starts from the original time after that my rate is $30 per hour. If I don't hear from you within a 1/2 hour I'll consider it a no-show and leave along with your non-refundable deposit, I hate to be mean but I hate to be stood up, if you can't show up or call it's inexcusable. 
I will post the photos on-line for 4 weeks for you and your family to view.

What if I have to reschedule? Not a problem, let me know as soon as possible. I will work with you but you must understand others have appointments and I must honor those first.

I hate the posed look, can I have something different than that boring shot? Sure, I personally hate to have my photo taken so I know what your feeling, I can show you different ways to make it look natural and you will like the result. I promise you won't have to look like a statue or hold your breath for 5 minutes. I liked the relaxed approach and have developed a style that will make it fun for you.

What about Props? Locations can be props. Show me who you are. If you are volunteer fire fighter, we could do a shoot at your fire house, computers, modeling, your car, music, band. If I could place you into a photo to describe your personally what would it be? The nice thing about on location portraits is we can do that shot with a piano or your car, yours will be different than all the others.

I have talked to seniors and parents alike and I have come up with this idea, I hope this helps in your search for senior photos, please don't hesitate to call me.

Thanks
Jim
