Service Fees

A service fee applies to each service provided by ALR Photography and is charged either during the booking process or through the issue of an invoice.

Fees vary depending on the type of service requested and are clearly displayed at the time of booking or noted on your invoice.

Below, you will find a summary of some of the standard fees charged for ALR Photography services.

The price of your photo session, will depend on the kind of photo session you have requested and the duration.

Details of pricing for sessions is displayed on the service’s page.

Pricing Structure

My pricing is based on an hourly rate. This includes the cost of the photo shoot and the download of 6 processed, full-resolution images for each hour booked. For example, a 2-hour photo shoot in the studio (70 lei per hour) would cost 140 lei and include the download of 12 images.

Final Selection and Processing

After the photo shoot, you will be able to view the images in an online gallery and make your final selection. Once you have chosen your images, I will process them and make them available for download.

Extra Images

If you would like to download more than 6 images per hour, additional images can be purchased for a fee as outlined below. You will have the opportunity to view all the images taken during the photo shoot in an online gallery, and select the images you would like to download.

For custom pricing or additional information, you can reach out to [email protected]

For hourly photo sessions, 6 fully-processed images are included in the hourly rate. These images will be made available for download upon selection at no additional cost.

In the event that you wish to obtain additional photos, not included in the hourly rate, you are able to purchase these at a special rate as outlined below.

1-5 Extra Photos5 lei / image(Tier 1)

Pricing is tiered, meaning that the first 5 images are charged at 5 lei per image, the next 6-10 images are charged at 4 lei per image and for 11 or over, the price is 3 lei per image.

All images released for download will be fully processed, full resolution and without any copyright or watermarks.
