Barberries Photography | Houston Child & Family Photographer | Investment
You’re ready to have beautiful portraits of your family in your home but you don’t know where to start. That’s why I’m here…let me help you sort through the fine print!
So How Much Does a Photo Session Cost?
Photography is an art so there is no standardized approach to pricing. Every photo session is as unique as the family. However, we understand that cost can be a deciding factor, so here’s some basic information on what to expect:
CUSTOM SESSION FEE - We charge $250 per session. (If you want your session to include both studio & location shots then the fee is $400.) The $250 fee also includes custom set ups, wardrobe, cake & bubble bath where applicable. No photos (digital images) are included in the session fee.
PLEASE NOTE: Session fee does not come with any photos (digital images). Digital images/photos, prints and other products are priced separately from the session fee. Please see below under “Finished Products”.
CUSTOM PACKAGES - Our packages are designed to be customized to the wants and needs of every family. They do come with set printed products but we can always tweak that. Packages start at $600. Session fee is a separate payment from packages. Session fee is not a part of any package.
SESSIONS/BUNDLES WE OFFER:
BELLY TO BABY’S FIRST YEAR PACKAGE: Includes 4 sessions to chronicle the birth/newborn/baby experience. Typically we start with a maternity portrait, followed by the newborn portrait & then cover the milestones in the first year of life. $750 session fee only.
MATERNITY SESSION: Don’t be like me and schedule your maternity session! You’ll thank me later. $250 session fee.
NEWBORN SESSION: Your baby has arrived & it’s time to book your newborn photo session! Our typical newborn shoot lasts 2—3 hours. This session includes posed portraits of the baby, family portraits, & a heirloom prop. You may opt to do just one part of the session or all; there’s no time limit since it depends on how well baby responds! I like to start around 9—10 AM when babies seem to feel their best…and we go from there! $250 session fee.
BABY SESSION: A single session to celebrate any milestone—sitting up, first tooth, first steps, first birthday, etc. Have a permanent memory of any special moment to share with family & friends. $100-250 session fee.
GROW WITH ME PACKAGE: This plan is designed to follow baby’s important milestones during the first year. Includes 3 sessions beginning with the newborn photo. $600 session fee only.
CAKE SMASH SESSION: This can be a single or a double session in studio or/and on location. Your session fee includes set up, cake, outfits. Typical cake smash session lasts 40-60 minutes. We schedule cake smash sessions at the times convenient for You. $250-400 session fee.

Designer dresses are from Anna Triant Couture, Bentley & Lace, Carriage House, Mon Bebe Couture, Dollcake and Tutu Du Monde. We provide crowns, headbands and floral halos. $250-400 session fee.
