Pricing and how we work

Being a foreigner doesn't stop you from living the experience.

If you're visiting from another country, you can include a unique and different session in your trip. We design your session around you and, if you're a foreigner, we take your situation into account to coordinate dates. Prices are shown in US dollars, Mexican pesos and euros; the dollar and euro figures are a reference calculated from the peso price.

Every session is designed around you, which is why we don't sell pre-built packages: we put together a quote based on what you want to achieve. Here we explain what the cost depends on, how much you might invest as a reference, and what the process looks like, so you can decide with peace of mind.

What shapes the cost of your session

No magic and no fine print: these are the things that move the budget.

  • Location

    With a location included, or in a space of your own that we can approve. The type of place also plays a part.

  • Length

    From a short session to a full day of several hours for a wider variety of photos.

  • Outfit changes

    Each style or change adds production time.

  • Makeup and accessories

    Extra services are quoted separately, depending on what you want.

  • Editing

    Three levels, from essential correction to High-fashion editing. We choose together which one suits you (see below).

  • Delivery

    Digital, at no extra cost. Prints: booklet, magazine, book or album, framed prints, loose prints, banners, and your photos on fabric, acrylic, glass, ceramic or wood (cushions, mugs, plates, glasses…). These are quoted separately.

  • Type of session

    Some productions need more preparation than others.

Three levels of editing

We choose with you the level that suits your photos and your budget. It can be the same for all of them or vary from photo to photo.

  1. Standard editing

    Correction of exposure and overall lighting, and balancing of lights. The essentials every photographer provides so your photos look clean and well balanced.

  2. Cinematic touch

    On top of the correction, we suggest filters, a film-style tone or a custom color treatment to create an atmosphere, with heightened, more dramatic colors and contrast.

  3. Fine Art / High-fashion editing

    Photo-by-photo editing with hybrid processes combining artificial intelligence and professional editing (Lightroom, Photoshop, Illustrator): frequency separation, dodge and burn, and manual cleanup of imperfections or elements that shouldn't be there. To take the photo to an editorial, fashion or artistic level.

Your budget, used your way

We don't work with packages. We design your session based on your budget and what you want to receive. A bigger investment can mean more things, or the same things with more quality, more detail, more complexity or more impact, or a mix of both. That's your call; we figure out how to make every peso count to give you what you want most, and we tell you clearly how far it can go and what wouldn't fit in the session.

  • More things

    The idea here is for you to take home a wide variety of things for your budget, adjusting quality and complexity to reach that goal.

  • More quality

    The same, but made with more care: more equipment, more editing, larger sizes and more finishes.

  • A bit of both

    With a bigger budget you go from 3 to 5 products and, on top of that, one of them goes up in quality or size.

Let's see how it would work, with an example

From≈ USD $110 · MXN $2,000 · ≈ EUR €100

Up to≈ USD $980 · MXN $18,000 · ≈ EUR €870

Two different prices, yet you still get a one-hour session and a framed print. A one-hour session and a framed print can cost ≈ USD $110–$980 · MXN $2,000–$18,000 · ≈ EUR €100–€870. The difference lies in how it's done: a second photographer or assistant, higher-end equipment and lenses, more elaborate lighting, a more exclusive venue, more changes and styles within that hour, far more careful editing, and a larger print with a gallery frame or several moldings combined.

Maybe not everything is possible, but you can almost always get more and better. Our job is to design it with you.

How much to invest, as a reference

These ranges are a guide; the final budget is defined with you.

  • Essential session

    From ≈ USD $100 · MXN $1,800 · ≈ EUR €90

    A short session (30 minutes to an hour and a half), with no location included. Ideal when you don't need a location and prefer outdoors; it can also take place at your own location, if approved.

  • Session with location

    From ≈ USD $300 · MXN $5,500 · ≈ EUR €270

    With a location included, the option of more time (from 2 hours) and the possibility of moving through several styles. A great starting point for a gift or a first session.

  • Full session

    ≈ USD $650–$1,510 · MXN $12,000–$28,000 · ≈ EUR €580–€1,350

    3 to 6 hours, several styles and outfit changes, more content and more detail.

  • Large-scale productions

    From ≈ USD $1,620 · MXN $30,000 · ≈ EUR €1,450 and up

    For those who want to cover a session as completely as possible, making the most of everything the styles have to offer, and receive high-end physical pieces to immortalize the session and turn it into art.

    • More or better equipment and more crew.
    • Set, materials and props.
    • Greater protection against loss of material.
    • Access to premium materials and finishes, and more or larger items.

How the process works

  1. Tell us your idea

    What you hope to receive, what style you like, or you have a budget and want to know what you can get. You can message us or ask for a quick call.

  2. We put together a tailored quote

    No rigid packages: a written proposal with the style, length, what's included and the total cost.

  3. You book your date

    With a 50 % deposit (or payment in full). We sign the contract and check an official ID to confirm you're 18 or older.

  4. Your session day

    The balance is paid before we start. You set the pace and can pause or stop whenever you want.

  5. You receive your photos

    Digital delivery in 2 to 4 weeks at the earliest; it may vary depending on the complexity of each session.

Where we hold the session

We don't have a fixed studio: every session calls for its own setting, decor, lighting and freshness. We work in Airbnb-style locations, usually central, or close to your area when possible. Request a call to clear up any questions and, if you prefer, we can also meet in person at a central spot we can suggest.

These are safe spaces: access requires a voter ID card or other official ID, and during the session only the person being photographed and the crew are present.

Sessions at private homes are considered case by case. Tell us your street and neighborhood (no house number) and we'll let you know if it's possible.

Can I bring someone with me?

Yes, but it's best to let us know from the start. For safety and so the session flows, only those actively taking part stay on site. Your companion can drop you off or pick you up and wait outside the premises.

If you want someone to be present during the session, we bring one more crew member to look after the equipment while the photographer focuses on you, and the location must allow more people. There may be an additional cost of up to ≈ USD $90 · MXN $1,500 · ≈ EUR €80, which we assess based on your session and the venue, and which we tell you about in your quote before we begin.

How payment works

  • 100 % or 50 % to book.

  • The remaining balance, if 100 % wasn't paid when booking, before the session starts.

  • Payment methods: cash, bank transfer, credit or debit card, and monthly installments.

  • We work under contract: security, backing and clarity for both sides.

  • All prices are in Mexican pesos; if you're visiting from abroad, you'll also see a reference in US dollars and euros.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask us most before booking.

Prices and budget

How much does a session cost?

It depends on the location, length, outfits, editing and delivery. As a reference, there are sessions from ≈ USD $100 · MXN $1,800 · ≈ EUR €90 and, with a location included, from ≈ USD $300 · MXN $5,500 · ≈ EUR €270; large-scale projects can exceed ≈ USD $13,480 · MXN $250,000 · ≈ EUR €12,020. We put together a quote tailored to you.

Do you have packages?

We don't work with fixed packages. We design every session; if you already have a budget, we start from there.

What can I get in print?

Digital delivery has no extra cost. If you'd like prints, they're quoted separately: booklet, magazine, book or album, framed prints, loose prints on photo paper in standard sizes, and banners. We can also put your photos on fabric, acrylic, glass, ceramic or wood to make cushions, mugs, plates, glasses and more.

Does paying more mean getting more?

It depends on what you want. A bigger budget can go toward getting more things, toward making what you choose higher in quality, complexity or impact, or toward a mix of both. We design your session around your budget and what you want to receive, and we tell you how far it goes.

What editing levels are there?

Three: standard editing (exposure, lighting and balance), cinematic touch (filter, film-style color or a custom, more dramatic color treatment) and Fine Art / High-fashion editing (photo by photo, with AI and professional editing, cleanup and retouching at an editorial level). We choose with you the one that suits your photos.

Booking and payment

How do I book?

Tell us your idea, your budget and the date you have in mind; you can ask for a call to clear up any questions. We prepare the proposal and you book with a 50 % deposit.

How and when do I pay?

50 % to book and the balance before we start. We accept cash, bank transfer, credit or debit card, and monthly installments.

The session

How long does it last?

What should I wear?

Bring all the clothes you think suit the style you're after. During the session we see them on you, mix and match, and decide together what works best.

Can I bring someone with me?

They can drop you off and wait outside. If they want to be present, there may be an additional cost of up to ≈ USD $90 · MXN $1,500 · ≈ EUR €80, and we need to know in advance.

Location and safety

Where does the session take place?

In Airbnb-style locations, usually central, or in an area close to you.
