Fine Art Photography by Melissa Bagley

Portrait Photoshoots

Over the last thirty years I’ve had the honor of photographing so many amazing women of all ages, first in the San Francisco Bay Area and now on the California Central Coast. I look forward to creating more beautiful portraits for women in the years to come.

Do you have questions about booking your own portrait photoshoot? Or, do you have an idea for a photoshoot and wonder if it’s possible? Please feel free to get in touch.

Portrait photoshoots begin at $500.

Every portrait photoshoot includes:
A pre-shoot consultation by phone
Assistance with clothing selection
Hair and make-up recommendations
Location scouting (when needed)
The initial proof edit
A private webpage for viewing your proofs

After viewing your proofs, you’ll be able to choose the images you’d like retouched and printed.

Prints are not included in the portrait photoshoot fee. Lightly retouched prints begin at $25 for 5″ x 7″ print.

For full print pricing and questions about purchasing digital files, please send me through my contact page.
