Consider the session fee as the foundation of your photographic journey. It encompasses the extensive time and expertise Carolina Luna invests from the initial consultation to the last click of the shutter. This fee distinctly acknowledges the myriad of preparatory work — from client communications, research, and booking vendors, to insurance, basic travel, and meticulous photo editing. By distinguishing this service, you gain clarity on the process and ensure fair compensation for the exceptional final products you receive.

Carolina Luna brings to the table a wealth of experience and specialization that sets her apart. Not all photographers account for the significant investment of time and resources in their pricing. Without this differentiation, professionals might find themselves earning less than what their skill warrants. The session fee is an educational tool for clients and peers, highlighting the distinct value of labor versus the final product. It also grants you, the client, the power to select the depth of support and expertise you desire. Think of the session fee as an affirmation of quality, transparency, and respect for both your vision and Carolina Luna’s professional dedication.

Each personal brand is unique, and so are the services I offer. To ensure that you receive imagery that truly represents your brand, pricing is not one-size-fits-all. For individual full-resolution photos, the base rate is $100 each. I offer curated packages at a more favorable rate per photo once you reach the ten-photo threshold, reflecting the bespoke nature of larger projects.

Included in these rates is the unrestricted use of images for your website and social media, which are critical for personal branding and self-promotion. These aren’t just photos—they are a visual legacy that encapsulates your brand essence, providing enduring value.

For the Custom Session fee, we consider the specific requirements of your project, such as additional vendors and travel, to provide a tailored quote.

I invite you to a personal phone consultation where we can discuss your needs and I can provide you with a detailed outline of typical fees. This conversation is an opportunity to align on vision, scale, and budget, ensuring your package is as bespoke as your brand.

Let’s have a phone call and I will be happy to disclose typical fees.

Licensing for Personal Branding Photography is designed for personal use and promotional purposes. However, photography created for campaigns is priced differently due to its commercial nature. If you represent a brand interested in hiring Carolina Luna for an editorial campaign or fashion brand project, please reach out to us for a customized quote tailored to your specific requirements. The pricing and agreements for Personal Branding Photoshoots do not apply in such cases, and we are here to assist you in determining the most suitable arrangement for your project

Please note that a formal contract is considered active and valid only when a deposit has been placed or the full payment has been received.

To ensure the integrity and exclusivity of your personal brand shoot, we kindly request that taking cell phone photos, or bringing additional photographers or videographers not previously agreed upon, is refrained from during our session. The production crew for your shoot is carefully curated and outsourced based on the unique requirements and specialties needed to fulfill your vision.

We are open to collaborative efforts that enhance the value of your project, so should there be a need for additional team members, such discussions and agreements must be made in advance. It is imperative that the set remains exclusive to the individuals who are part of the original planning to maintain focus and quality.

As a bonus and to add value to your experience, I personally provide complimentary behind-the-scenes cell phone photography. These snapshots are perfect for you to share on social media, giving your followers a sneak peek into the creation process of your professional photos and to generate excitement with engaging content like Instagram Reels or Stories.

If you have any requests or require additional coverage, please discuss them with me prior to your shoot day so we can ensure a seamless and successful experience.

When it comes to styling for your photoshoot, I’m a strong believer that your wardrobe should be a vibrant extension of your brand’s story and your personal essence. I employ a unique profiling system that taps into brand archetypes and a methodology that helps identify your core energy. This insight guides me to recommend the colors and patterns that will complement your personality and make you stand out in your photos. While I may not be formally trained as a stylist, my experience has honed my ability to advise clients, consistently yielding fantastic photographic outcomes.

Preparation is paramount. For those who want to invest further in their shoot’s styling, I can provide referrals to personal stylists whose expertise can elevate your personal branding to new heights. Your style isn’t just about fashion; it’s a crucial component of your brand identity.

I offer Personal Branding Styling services that can be tailored to your needs – whether that’s through my own advisory or by bringing in a professional stylist, especially for fashion brands. We can discuss your needs in advance to determine the right fit for your shoot. If you have a trusted stylist with whom you’ve worked before, it’s beneficial to involve them. They’ll ensure that the clothing complements your brand, fits perfectly, and is displayed at its best on the model.

Absolutely, the power of professional makeup and hairstyling cannot be overstated when it comes to personal branding photography. I have a curated network of skilled makeup artists and hairstylists—my go-to professionals—who are familiar with the specific needs of a photoshoot. They know how to make you look your best on camera, ensuring that your photos come out as polished and professional as your brand deserves.

If you don’t have a personal preference or a trusted artist, you can certainly rely on my team to provide you with top-notch service. They are adept at creating a look that is not only camera-ready but also true to your personal brand identity. Every stroke of the brush and every styling of the hair is done with the intention of enhancing your natural features and aligning with the image you wish to project to your audience.

Should you prefer to use your own makeup artist or hairstylist, I’m open to collaborating with them to achieve the desired results. It’s all about creating a cohesive look that aligns seamlessly with your brand and makes you feel confident and authentic in front of the lens.

Yes, my camera and I are more than ready to journey with you, wherever your brand story needs to be told. While Long Island, NY, is where I call home, my passion for capturing the heart and soul of personal brands knows no bounds.

For any travel outside of Long Island, additional fees such as tolls, parking, and transportation costs may be applied. These are necessary considerations to ensure that I can bring my full array of professional equipment and expertise to your chosen location.

When it comes to traveling further afield, be it to other states or internationally, I am completely open to discussion. We will plan together to accommodate the logistics, and a clear fee structure along with travel reimbursements will be agreed upon beforehand. This way, we ensure transparency and ease for both parties, enabling us to focus on what truly matters—creating stunning visuals that resonate with your brand.

Let’s discuss the details, and set the stage for a photoshoot that transcends boundaries. Your brand’s story is unique, and I’m here to capture it, wherever that story takes us.
