What exactly is Artistic Portraiture?

It is the term we use to distinguish ourselves from other studios. What is the difference between Artistic Portraiture and Boudoir? Lots!

A typical Boudoir shoot is done in less than two hours after makeup and hair, with each woman getting the same poses and lighting as the women before her. The only difference between the two different women’s shoots will be the lingerie or lack thereof. For an Artistic Portraiture session, we begin by determining what type of images the client is visualizing. This starts with our questionnaire to find out more about the client, the purpose of the photographs, and why they would like them in the first place. Next, we continue working with the client, refining ideas to create at least two unique concepts based on their vision and needs. This approach allows us to capture everything from unique portraits to more intimate images. Due to the time required for this, we only book a limited number of Artistic Portraiture sessions per month. This way, we know we can give our clients the attention they deserve. Capturing images of women that get guys all hot and bothered is easy. We aim to create images that make other women say, "Wow, you look beautiful in these," which is more challenging. 

How many photographs are included with an Artistic Portraiture Shoot?

We do not include any photographs or digital images in the session fee for our Artistic Portraiture shoots—the number of photographs or digital images the client purchases will depend on the client. If the client's purpose is to create a single photograph that can be used as wall art in their home, the client can choose the one they want printed from the shoot images they are presented with. Although the session was to create a single photograph, the client always has the opportunity to purchase more photographs or items if desired. 

Suppose the client is more interested in having a book for themselves or to give as a present, images for their social media accounts, or other products made from their shoot. In that case, the number of photographs or digital images purchased will be higher, as will the number of images presented to choose from.

How many images do you take per session?

The number of images will vary based on the number of looks the client desires and the length of the session. In general, clients can expect between 10 and 50 images per look, depending on the purpose of the shoot.

Copyright and Image Use

Unless stated otherwise in the session contract, the copyright for all images created during the session belongs to the photographer or Captured Light Studios, LLC. Captured Light Studios, LLC, does not use images created with clients without written authorization from the client and will not sell any client images to anyone other than the client.

Images purchased from Captured Light Studios, LLC. are limited to the following without prior written authorization from Captured Light Studios, LLC.

     1. Posting of digital images to social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.) provided the copyright holder is credited.

     2. Noncommercial posting of digital images for enjoyment/viewing by friends and family.

That sounds interesting, but how much does it cost? 

The investment will depend on what the client desires. Our base investment, called the sitting fee, covers the photographer's time for the session. Makeup, hairstyles, and outfits are the client’s responsibility unless we have been asked to provide those services for additional fees. Please note that per Ohio law, makeup and hair styling can only be done by a board-certified, licensed cosmetician. Other additional fees will apply for travel, location rental, equipment rental, prop rental, etc. Photographs, digital images, or other products are offered separately and not included in the session rate.

Captured Light Studios, LLC. will not consider a client booked until the appropriate session/sitting investment has been paid, reserving that date and time for the client. Click here to set up a FREE consultation concerning your specific needs. Scheduling of the session and payment can be done at the end of the consultation call.

Clients who cancel more than 30 days before the session date are eligible for a full refund of their session investment.

Clients who cancel 14- to 29 days before the session can use their investment to rebook the session, provided it is rebooked within a 90-day timeframe from the original date. If the client is not able to rebook within the 90-day timeframe, a refund of 50% of the investment will given. Note that if a location, props, or equipment is being rented for the shoot, the client is responsible for any fees the rental companies charge for the cancellation regardless if the client rebooks or does not.

For clients that cancel less than 14 days before the scheduled session date, a rebooking fee of 50% of the session investment will be charged, provided the client is able to rebook the session within the following 90 days. If the client is not able to rebook their session within the 90-day timeframe,  100% of the investment will be forfeited. Additionally, when renting a location, props, or equipment, the client will be responsible for any additional fees charged by the rental property or companies. 

Clients who cancel a second time will forfeit 100% of their investment and again be responsible for any rental charges.
