Portrait or editorial — what’s the difference?

It isn’t who had the idea. It’s whether the picture has to be built.

A portrait

A standard setup. One lighting design, two looks, my direction on the day. Bring mood or lighting references — included, not extra.

An editorial

A built setup. Props, styling, a scouted location, more than one environment. That work happens days before we shoot — it’s what you’re paying for.

Bring your own moodboard either way. The price follows what the shoot needs built, not who thought of it.

Portrait & Headshot

$650

90 min · 2 looks · 15 edited images

One person, standard setup. Mood references welcome.

Executive & Brand

$950

2 hrs · 3 looks · 25 edited images

More range and polish. Includes press and profile crops.

Editorial

From $1,200

3 hrs · 3–4 looks · 30 edited images

A built shoot — styling, props, location. Bring a concept or I’ll build one.

Team & Group

$2,400

Half day · up to 10 people · 5 images each

Consistent lighting and treatment across a whole team.

Portrait pricing is fixed for the scope shown; editorial pricing is a starting point. Commercial and campaign commissions are quoted around the creative scope, production needs, deliverables, and usage. Venue, studio, props, permits, styling, and hair & makeup are additional where needed.

About Me

The eye
behind the lens

I'm Jarrod — an editorial photographer and director building visual worlds through fashion, portraiture, and campaign imagery. This is where my personal work and select commissions live.

After ten years behind the camera and time away from shooting, Atlanta marks a deliberate return to the work: new editorials, original campaigns, and collaborations with artists, publications, and brands that value a distinct point of view. I've worked with Nike, Puma, Spotify, Clinique, and Fenty.

FAQ

How do I receive my images?+
Private gallery link, 7–10 business days. Rush: 3-day +$300, 2-day +$500, next day +$750.
What's the deposit to book?+
50% holds the date, balance due on the day. Non-refundable, but transferable if you reschedule 48+ hours out.
What should I wear?+
What feels like you, elevated. Solid colours and simple patterns photograph best. We'll talk it through beforehand. Styling $600, hair & makeup $350–450.
Do you travel for shoots?+
Yes — based in Atlanta, LA and New York, available worldwide. Outside those markets, travel is billed at cost.
Do you take on commercial and brand work?+
Yes. Commission me directly as photographer or director from $1,800 half day or $3,200 full day, plus usage. Final quotes reflect the brief, deliverables, and licensing. Projects needing full production run through Purple Spider Agency from $4,500.
Can you shoot product without us being there?+
Yes. Ship it to the Atlanta studio — we concept, style, shoot and deliver. You approve remotely.
How does licensing work?+
Sessions include personal use. Commercial use — ads, campaigns, publishing — is licensed on top, priced by scope and duration. Agreed before delivery.
Does the fee cover the location itself?+
The work of finding it is included. The location's own cost isn't. Public spaces, your place or mine are free; specific venues, studios and permits are billed at cost with no markup, approved by you first. Same for props.
I have my own moodboard — can you just shoot it?+
Yes, and it's welcome. Which tier it lands in depends on what the shoot needs built, not who made the board. Mood and lighting references fit a portrait. Sourced props, styling or several set-ups make it editorial.
Can I request specific shots or moods?+
Yes. Every booking includes a pre-shoot call to align on direction and shot list. Bring a vision or let me bring one.
What's your cancellation policy?+
Inside 48 hours, the deposit is forfeited. One free reschedule with 48+ hours notice. Same-day cancellation is billed at 50%.
Do you shoot tethered?+
Yes, for studio sessions — you see images live and can direct on set. Ask when booking.
