Photography Pricing in Cincinnati

You made it to the pricing page, which means you're serious and I love that. Here's the breakdown of what each session costs and what's included.

What Every Session Includes:

No matter which session you book, you always get:

  • A pre-session consultation so we can plan your look, your vibe, and every detail together.

  • Your full gallery of professionally edited images -- every single shot, yours to download, print, and share forever.

  • Free use of studio wardrobe and props (I have tons of options).

  • A custom playlist made just for you.

  • Your favorite snacks waiting for you at the studio.

  • A printed keepsake from your session to take home that day.

Payment plans are available on all sessions -- just ask.

Have questions? Don't let pricing stop you from reaching out. I'm always happy to chat and figure out what works best for you and your budget.

Your full gallery is always included. No exceptions.

Every session at Say Yes to Jess comes with your complete gallery of professionally edited images.

Not a handful.

Not a package you have to upgrade.

Not a sales call afterward where you pick from proofs and hope you can afford the ones you love.

You get everything.

Download them, print them, share them, post them -- they're yours forever. No extra fees, no surprises.

A lot of photographers charge $300-500+ just for digital files on top of their session fee. That's not how I do things. When you book with me, the full gallery is part of the deal from day one.

The only exception is the Mini Headshot Session, which includes 3 professionally edited images to keep it simple and easy at that price.

Every other session? Full gallery, always.

Common questions

  • Yes! After your session, you'll get a link to your online gallery where you can browse everything and pick the images you want to download. You're not stuck with whatever I choose. You get to pick your favorites.

  • Most sessions come with your full gallery, so what you see is what you get! For headshot minis, you can purchase additional images from your gallery if you'd like.

  • A 20% nonrefundable deposit is required to lock in your date. The remaining balance is due before your session. I'll walk you through all of this during your consultation call so there are no surprises.

  • Yes! I offer payment plans so you can break up the cost into smaller payments. We'll set it all up during your consultation.

  • I'm biased, but YES. Having your hair and makeup professionally done makes a huge difference in how you feel during your session, and when you feel amazing, it shows in the photos. It's $150 per person and I handle the booking for you.

  • Life happens! I'm flexible and happy to work with you on rescheduling. Just reach out as soon as you know and we'll find a new date. Your deposit transfers to the new date.
