As of February 1st, 2012, I will be implementing a rate change. I must increase the rate for the Makeover + Photo shoots from $249 to $299 for "Package B," and from $299 to $349 for "Package C." However, regular "Makeup Only," Package "A" is being REDUCED from $99 down to $75. "Package D" (that's the double shoot) will increase from $349 to $399.
The increased rate reflects the increasing amount of time required for post-production work on your images. Many of you know that I do a minimum of ten additional hours to complete the photo retouching, and the current rate makes this cost-prohibitive for me. As I get busier, I am having to turn away shoots in order to accommodate the post-production work. If you compare to other services around the country and beyond, you will learn that my rates are still lower, even after the increase. Many other services do not offer even HALF of the number of photos I do, and do not include retouching. It's a necessary evil to increase rates, but my prices have been the same for many years, and I must keep up with the times in order to continue. If you book before February 1st, regardless of when you actually do your shoot, I will honor the old rate. If you book after February 1st, you must pay the new rate. Please see the "Rates" page for details.
In other news, I have added a few new services to the menu. The first one is PRIVATE VIDEO SERVICE. I get a lot of requests for this service. I will make a video of you, erotic or non-erotic. It can be up to 30 minutes in length, and include you and another person or people. Some girls would like to see themselves in "real life" situations, or intimate situations with a friend. I will edit it, with music and titles, and of course it includes full makeup, hair, and nails. Please visit the "Rates" page for more details.
The other new services are "Tour Guide," and "Mini-Shoot." The "Tour Guide" service is designed for visitors and newbies. I will arrange for someone to meet you at your hotel, and accompany you to shopping, dining, or clubbing. We will tailor this service to fit your needs. Please see the "Rates" page, or call 818-508-5289 for more details.
The "Mini-Shoot" is designed for those who do not want, or cannot afford, a whole photo shoot. It includes a full makeover, plus a "single-look" mini-photo shoot. See the "Rates" page for details. In the near future, I will be adding products and merchandise sales (wigs, nails, hosiery, and the like), including my very own makeup line.
Last, but certainly not least, the new costume line is almost ready. The costumes have been photographed, and the new website will launch at the first of the year. Again, I will post a notice here when it does. They are fabulous, and I would like to thank my talented new seamstress/costumer Mallory Kay Nelson for all her hard work to make it happen. I will feature an advertisement for her services as well.
