Tucson Graduation Photographer
If you are looking for a professional Tucson Graduation Photographer, you found him! I have been in business since 2007 and have been taking photos of college grads ever since. Most of my clients attend the University of Arizona. The Spring semester is definitely the busiest for me, so I would suggest booking early. I start to get calls in late February and it continues until school gets out. I also photograph events, school photos and sports, so those can cut into my schedule as well. The Fall semester isn’t nearly as busy with grad photos. It’s still good to book your professional Tucson Graduation Photographer early.
What kind of Grad photography packages do you have?
I offer 3 basic packages, but can customize something for you as well. For only a couple photos, I offer a 30 minute mini session for $275 + tax. This mini session is only available when booked directly before/after an already scheduled session. Most grads go with the 60 minute package for $375 + tax. This allows a little more time to get a variety of photos. You can also do a quick outfit change if you would like. That’s the one I tend to recommend most. Another popular package is my 90 minute package for $550 + tax. This allows for multiple outfit changes and multiple locations around campus. Highly recommended if you have 5 or more people or have multiple outfit changes. It’s also nice if you want photos in several places on campus.
If you have a friend or group you would like to take photos with, I don’t charge extra. I do recommend the 90 minutes session if it’s 3 or more people. This way everyone has time to get their portraits taken. I can also do more time if needed. All packages include the edited high-resolution digital copies of all the photos. I love sororities, fraternities, clubs and teammates! You are more than welcome to split the cost of the session with your group. I can accept cash, check, Venmo or Zelle as payment options. Payment is due at the end of your session.
Where do you take the grad photos at?
I almost always start our grad portrait session at Old Main. Most of out time is spent here and then we can venture off to other parts of campus. Some popular areas include at the UofA Mall, Forbes, Centennial Hall, the Orange Grove, Student Union and Eller. Some of these places do require a bit of a walk. Be sure to budget that into your time and bring shoes you can easily walk in.
Props are always a fun thing to add to your photos. I regularly see students bring champagne bottles, balloons, cap/gown and block letters. I highly recommend bringing a friend to carry your stuff if possible. They can also watch over it during our session.
