Photography Investment

Every Ymaphoto session is built around a single goal: images that communicate authority, presence, and trust before you speak. Every session is custom-designed — from lighting and direction to wardrobe and look count — to support the role you're stepping into.

The starting points below are floors, not menus. Final investment is confirmed during your consultation.

Team, multi-person & on-location work — Quoted on consultation

Corporate team sessions, multi-person executive shoots, conference and event coverage, and travel-based or on-location work are quoted individually based on:

  • Team size
  • Location and travel
  • Session length and number of looks required
  • Turnaround timeline
  • Delivery format (web, print, campaign use)

Add-on: Hair & Makeup

Professional hair and makeup is available as an add-on for $300 + HST, booked in advance through Ymaphoto's preferred MUA. Strongly recommended for executive portraits, public-figure portraits, and personal branding sessions.

Prefer to bring your own? You're welcome to arrange your own hair and makeup professional for the session — just let us know in advance so we can plan timing accordingly.

Frequently asked

What's included in the price?

Session time, in-session direction, real-time review, wardrobe and look planning, and the retouched files specified per tier. Additional retouches and add-ons (hair and makeup, extra looks) are quoted separately so you only pay for what you need.

Why isn't every price listed?

Because every session is custom-designed. Two executive portraits of the same nominal size may need very different lighting, location, and time commitments depending on the role you're stepping into. The numbers above are starting points — final investment is confirmed during your consultation, when we align the session to your specific goals.

Is there a satisfaction guarantee?

Yes. If you feel your final images don't reflect the agreed direction and preparation, a reshoot can be arranged at no additional cost. The goal is for you to leave with images you feel fully confident using.

Do you offer payment plans?

Available on request for larger team and personal branding packages. Standard sessions are paid in full on or before the session date by e-transfer.

How do I book?

Start with a consultation. Free, no commitment, and the only way to confirm the right session structure for your goals.

Ready to start?

Every booking starts with a 20-minute consultation — free, no pressure, and the most reliable way to confirm the right session for your role and goals.
