Investment


A session with Maureen Bates Photography is an individualized experience.


You can expect for your session:

  • Client vision: Time will be taken to understand the desires of the client's vision for the photoshoot, family member(s) dynamics (ex. multi generational, vs. couples), any special needs requirements that I should be aware of, and for children, their general personalities.
  • Flexible scheduling: Outdoor photoshoots require flexibility!
  • Location: Assistance locating the perfect location
  • Wardrobe: Advice will be given if needed, Pinterest is a wonderful resource for wardrobe ideas!
  • Props:: Advice on props will be provided


Fees include the session time and number of images included in the selected package.

Booking your session will require $150 retainer to be applied to the remaining balance of the package.

NC Sales tax of 7.25% will be applied



*Sessions will take place up to 2 hours before sunset*

**Due to the nature of outdoor photography, a rain date will need to be selected**

It's not just a photograph, it's all about capturing a moment...
