How much does photographing a proposal in Chicago cost?
The average price for Chicago proposal photography varies depending on whether customers value receiving simple proposal coverage or adding an additional portrait session following their proposal.
Many clients budget between $600 and $900, with most opting to invest $750.
You will sign a contract and remit a 50% retainer to secure your date and time. Your Remaining Balance is due once your images are ready for delivery.
While a proposal coverage alone often delivers 25-50 photos, including the approach, proposal, detail photos of the ring, and a handful of quick portraits at the location where you got engaged, adding an additional 30 to 60-minute portrait session can equate to an additional 75-150 impactful images.
Post-proposal portrait Sessions offer a fun opportunity to create more memories by incorporating additional locations, dynamic lighting, and a higher quantity of delivered images. These sessions result in some of our clients’ favorite memories, often doubling as save-the-dates, profile photos on social media, and artwork in our clients’ homes.
