ABOUT IVAN
GREETINGS
“It’s one thing to make a picture of what a person looks
like, it’s another thing to make a portrait of who they are.”
– Paul Caponigro

MODELING/HEADSHOT DIGITAL SESSIONS
My digital headshot session is designed to create new images
for you to market yourself for whatever your need may be, by
not only capturing your individual personality, but by getting
your photos noticed. For me images that hold the onlookers
attention are precisely what I’m going for day in and day out.
Whether you need headshots for acting, personal branding
or any other medium we’ll make a plan to create these types
of images. In doing so, I concentrate on using your own
personal expression and attributes to creatively pull the very
best of you into each frame. Throughout the entire process I
am directing and coaching you towards what will become a
number of captivating portraits tailored specifically for you.
YOUR SESSION:
I like to shoot a minimum of 4 different looks during a session.
Shooting a range of looks in this way will allow you to have
multiple shots available for different marketing purposes. I
don’t put a strict limit on the number of shots I take per look,
and generally shoot each look until I feel we’ve got it covered.
Sessions generally last 2-3 hours.
RETOUCHING AND PRINTING:
I am very selective about what goes out in the world and
personally edit and retouch all of my photos. Retouching
blemishes while maintaining a natural look that’s fully you is
my goal. I submit all final images to you for approval and will
fine tune them to your satisfaction.
THE EQUIPMENT:
What can I say, I don’t take my work lightly and I like to use the
best equipment available, so I’ve got some major cameras
and lights at my disposal. If I don’t have what we need I’m
happy to rent it.
CLOTHING:
I really like everyone to bring at least 5 to 10 different options
for clothing. For headshots, you’ll really just need to concentrate on tops (unless you’d like some 3/4 shots). Rule #1: You
have to love it! I don’t want to shoot anything that you don’t
feel comfortable wearing. If you don’t feel comfortable in it,
you won’t shoot well while wearing it.
People always ask me what colors are best and I really don’t
have an answer for that. It’s better for me to get a visual of
something, so I suggest bringing a wide variety of colors.
Don’t be seasonal; everything from t-shirts, tank tops to
sweaters and light jackets can work. I love textures and layers,
but would generally stay away from crazy patterns.
HAIR & MAKEUP:
Women’s Makeup
Makeup for the session is highly
recommended for all women. My
makeup artist that has been working with me for over 2 years is $150
for the full session. A hair stylist can
be on set for $75.
We do this on a daily basis and
the makeup is applied specifically
for the lighting I use. We start very
naturally to give you a clean look
and will add a touch of makeup
in the middle of the shoot if you
prefer a darker look as well.
Women’s Hair
We ask that everyone come in with
their hair ready the way you would
like to present yourself. We want
your hair in pictures to be as close
as possible to the way you look on
a good hair day. You are really in
charge here because hair is such
a personal thing and I want you to
feel like yourself.
Men
It’s not required and I usually don’t
recommend makeup on men, but
you can hire a makeup artist if you
feel you need grooming on the
shoot for $100. Also, for the guys
who grow decent scruff or feel you
might want some shots with some
facial hair, you can come in with
some growth and we’ll shoot until
we feel we’ve gotten it covered and
then you can shave, so bring your
razor, etc.

COST AND SCHEDULING:
My digital headshot session rate is $500 for the shoot
for Portland clients (All other clients will be charged
for travel). There is a $100 deposit required to book
a session, this is non-refundable and goes towards
the $500 total. The session is 2 to 3 hours of shooting once you’re in front of my camera. Make sure you
don’t have anything else scheduled close to the end
of your session in case I feel we need more time with
you.
If for any reason you need to change a scheduled
session, I require 72 hours notice, otherwise you
forfeit your deposit. However, if I am able to fill your
slot with another client within the 72 hour period
then I would credit your deposit towards your rescheduled session.:
PAYMENTS:
A non-refundable deposit of $100 is required to book
a full session. It is due at your convenience after
you’ve chosen a shoot date and gotten it booked on
my schedule.
I accept cash, checks, PayPal, as well as
credit cards via Square. The remaining
balance is due the day of the session.
We work with freelance makeup artists
and you will be paying them directly, they
require cash the day of the shoot.
I like my clients to be 100% informed, so
thanks for taking the time to read all this
pertinent information (I know it’s a lot!).
If you still have questions feel free to ask.
Either myself or my assistant would be
happy to help you. We look forward to
hearing from you!
Thanks,
Ivan

CORPORATE HEADSHOTS
COMMERCIAL & EDITORIAL
The majority of our corporate clients send their team
members directly to the studio to be photographed.
Appointments are made at each client’s convenience and
I will spend up to an hour with them during the session.
The final chosen images are then retouched and digital
files are delivered via Dropbox. Our fee for this type
of session is $400. For women who would like to have
their makeup done for shoot the cost is an additional
nn$150. I don’t recommend makeup for men because any
blemishes will be retouched afterwards.
Pricing is based on several factors and the
needs of each project.
Option 2:
This option is for up to six clients to come into the studio
for a half day. The session is approximately four hours.
From there the clients can select images to be retouched
and delivered. The session rate is $1500. Makeup pricing
for a half day is available and dependent upon the number
of men and women shooting. Should you need to add
extra people to this option it would be based on the rate
of $250 per person.
