SESSIONS – Susan Ogar Photography

YOUR SESSION

should be all about you.

INVESTMENT

Don't invest in a snapshot. Invest in a work of art.

It is my hope that, when you engage with Susan Ogar Photography, you will not just walk away with snapshots—but rather with cherished and timeless pieces of art. This means a careful investment of time and thought goes into each step of the creative process. Together, we will create images to last a lifetime.

Families and Children

Session fees for families and children run from $200 weekday up to (1-hour) to $300 weekend (2-hour). I recommend the longer session for larger, multi-generational groups, as well as for those who would like to take the time to capture “moment in time” lifestyle photographs in addition to those that are posed. Final photo collections including prints, artwork and albums typically range from $500 to $4500.

Seniors

I offer a variety of options for Seniors to suit different styles and preferences, ranging from a 20 minute Mini Session for $159, to a $1599 Ultimate Session which includes a half day location shoot, multiple wardrobe changes, a beautifully designed 20-page Senior book and more

THE PROCESS

2 WEEKS BEFORE

Before our session, I will take time to get to know you—your personality, your passions and your goals for the photographs. I will listen to your ideas, and share some of my own. We’ll discuss wardrobe and other tips to help you look and feel your best and where you would like to display your portraits in your home.

2 DAYS BEFORE

I will confirm all the details from our consultation, and answer any last-minute questions. Please review all clothing and preparation information that I shared. Note: will pay for your Portrait Session at the time of booking in order to reserve the time.

DAY OF SHOOT

Today we will meet at our chosen location. I will do my best to make sure that our 1 or 2 hour session is fun and relaxing, so that your real self shines through!

PRODUCTS

You will choose how to display and share your final portraits when we meet for your Selection & Ordering Meeting. I will help every set of the way.

WHAT TO WEAR

When preparing for your session, choose clothes that reflect your style and are appropriate for the event. You may also want to consider where in your home you plan to display your portraits to ensure the colors and style are complimentary. I can certainly help with that during our consultation and I’m happy to come to your home. Solids and long sleeves look best…even in the summer. The focus will be put on your beautiful faces and smiles and it is more flattering overall. I always suggest selecting a palette of colors. Your portraits will look more professional if you choose similarly colored clothing. There is no need to be “matchy-matchy”, but coordination can look excellent and not scripted. If you select a white top, nude toned undergarments photograph much better than white undergarments. Below are some details that will help…
