Professional Headshots

Billie Bullet

No matter what field you're in, chances are, you could use some current headshots from a professional photographer. Corporate executives, business people, actors, models, or professionals in any field can use headshots to enhance resumes, provide visual flair for website biographies, and much more. Even if your only bio is on MySpace, how cool would it be to have the best looking profile image around?

The basic headshot package costs only $150 and includes:

  • A variety of web ready sizes are included. Prints are available for a small fee, ranging in size from 4"x6" to wall-covering canvases.
  • Royalty-free use for website bios, portfolios, MySpace, and event flyers. If you need a particular size for a print flyer, I can supply it for you.

NOT Included

  • Magazine / Newspaper editorial use (press-releases are okay)
  • Magazine / Newspaper advertisements
  • Commercial direct mailers / brochures
  • Any other advertising / commercial use that isn't explicitly granted above

I will retain all commercial rights to the images, but if you wish to use your headshots in corporate marketing materials, advertising, or editorial projects, additional uses can be negotiated on a case-by-case basis.

Photography Pricing

Concentration

Packages

Professional Headshots$150
DJ / Band Bio Package$200
Concert / Rave Package$250

Unless otherwise noted in writing, these license terms apply.

Pricing for photography generally falls into two different categories:

  • Shooting Fees / Expenses, and...
  • Use Fees

Shooting Fees

Shooting fees pay for the photo shoot, and cover expenses like equipment costs and overhead. Shooting fees do not cover extra expenses, such as pay for models, makeup artists, pre-production days, set design and construction, or catering.

Shooting fees range from $150 - $500 per photo shoot, depending upon the complexity of the job. Shorter time blocks do not always translate into smaller shooting fees. After all, it takes a great deal of skill and ingenuity to create a great photograph under intense time pressure. You don't pay for time, you pay for creative vision, and the experience to transform that vision into powerful imagery.

Use Fees

Certain uses are free, including web-sized images for portfolios, MySpace profile pages, and personal (non-commercial) use under these legal terms. If you use an image for free on your website or MySpace profile, you must link to my site, or mention the URL. Here is the proper form of attribution:

Fees for other uses vary depending on what the photos are for, and how you intend to use them. I always retain copyrights. Every commercial use of an image (even if it's the same image) requires purchase of an image use license. Copyright violators will be subject to prosecution under international copyright laws. All commercial image use must be cleared in advance!

Commercial Uses for Commissioned Photos

Commercial use prices are based on the market average, utilizing the latest prices from an industry standard database that tracks average rates by geographic region. The Plus System is used to come to an agreement that clearly spells out your use needs so that you can be sure that the contract covers everything you need it to cover, and that the pricing for that coverage is arrived at fairly.
