Portraiture packages and pricing for dogs, individuals

Portraiture for the digital world...

Our packages are designed to work with both pets and people. The actual shooting sessions can run a little longer for pets at our discression without extra charges. We get that dogs don't always do what they are told. We can tailor packages to meet your needs but keep in mind the packages are a logical progression. You will find better value based on larger packages. If you go with a smaller package and want to upgrade after the shoot keep in mind you will have fewer shots to choose from due to a shorter shooting time. Purchasing a-la-cart is available but the overall quality of the final product will be better if you start with more shoot time. We understand the importance of social media and are happy to tailor your final product to being social media friendly. We can also compose in such a way as to leave you room for text overlays if you prefer. There are many ways to customize your package to meet your needs whether it is for digital display, print, social media or your website, we will work with you.

An honest discussion about pricing...

In my journey as a professional photographer, my focus has always been on delivering a unique and cherished experience. I believe in the power of a few carefully curated images that truly capture the personality and spirit of you, your family and your fur babies. While some may offer numerous images, my commitment lies in providing thoughtful, fully edited photos that tell a story.

Setting the Record Straight on Pricing...

Recently, I've been wondering whether my pricing truly reflects the value I bring to you, it has become evident that pricing ranges can vary significantly across different photographers. This prompts the question: What factors contribute to such a wide range in pricing?

Allow me to provide insight into the meticulous workflow at Pete Love's Pixels, shedding light on the dedication invested in every session. Our process extends far beyond the actual photography session, commencing with client outreach and consultation. This initial step, whether conducted through email or phone, requires careful consideration, often taking anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour to ensure a tailored experience.

Prior to the shoot, meticulous preparations are made, encompassing gear selection, servicing, and planning for both studio and on-location shoots. This preparation demands approximately an hour, reflecting our commitment to delivering excellence. I want to open up a dialogue about pricing because, ultimately, your satisfaction is my priority. The shoot itself, whether set in a studio or on location, necessitates additional time and attention to detail, potentially extending to an hour. Once the session concludes, our work enters a phase of curation, editing, and uploading for client review. It's at this point that the distinction between high-volume and low-volume photographers becomes apparent.

While some photographers may provide large quantities of images, the quality of each photograph is a paramount consideration. At Pete Love's Pixels, we champion the narrative of quality over quantity. A 'full edit' is not merely a matter of applying a generic filter; it involves a dedicated 15 minutes to an hour for each image, ensuring a meticulous result that stands apart. We don't discredit high-volume photographers; we simply acknowledge the differences in approach. If an abundance of 'ok' shots aligns with your preferences, high-volume photographers may be the ideal choice. However, if your vision centers around a select few exceptional photos worthy of adorning your walls, low-volume photographers are likely to fulfill your aspirations.

Our decision to focus on a select number of images is driven by the belief that you already possess snapshots of your own. Our aim is to provide you with distinctive, professionally edited photographs that surpass the realm of ordinary snapshots.

Your Feedback Matters

I value your opinions, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on how I can enhance your experience. Whether you're a past client or someone considering my services, your feedback is invaluable. I'm dedicated to not just capturing moments but creating memories that last a lifetime. If you've ever visited my website and had questions about the value I offer, let's talk. I'm here to provide clarity, share insights, and ensure that you feel confident and excited about booking me as your photographer.

Together, We Create Lasting Memories

In conclusion, the key lies in making informed choices aligned with your expectations. We appreciate the diversity within the photography community and acknowledge that each approach caters to different preferences. It is our sincere hope that this insight aids you in making a decision that aligns seamlessly with your vision. Thank you for considering Pete Love's Pixels.
