// MONTHLY RETAINER
A monthly content retainer is ideal for brands that want steady, polished imagery all year without bringing on a full-time hire. If you know you’ll need new visuals for campaigns, socials, product updates, events, or ongoing storytelling, this setup gives you consistency, priority, and a predictable spend.
You get a preferred rate compared to my normal day rate and hourly retouching. It protects your budget and guarantees you a set amount of dedicated time each month. No scrambling for last minute shoots, no guessing on costs, no surprises. You get access to a photographer and retoucher who handles everything start to finish without the overhead of an in-house employee.
Think of it as a monthly content investment. You’re booking my time, not just a single service. Once your package is selected, I block that time in my calendar every month and treat your brand as an ongoing partner. You get steady production, priority scheduling, and a polished library that grows with your needs. Larger months can scale up, smaller months can shift to more lifestyle, product, or short form assets. Easy and flexible.
Packages start at $4000 a month, and I can shape things to fit different levels of output. Smaller brands can start at the entry tier and grow over time. Bigger teams can build in multiple shoot days, extended image libraries, short videos, or seasonal campaigns. It all depends on how much content you want coming in each month.
Before anything is locked in, we’ll jump on a quick 30 minute call. I want to understand your business, the feel of your brand, what’s ahead on your calendar, and how you want your content to work for you. From there, we map out a plan that fits your workflow and your goals.
// RATE SHEET
Here’s how I handle socials and event work, just to keep everything clean on both sides.
If a brand wants placement on my Instagram, that lives outside my photography and retouching rates. Social is its own lane.
Instagram
Static post $1000
Carousel of 3 to 5 images, stays live, tagged or collab post as needed.
Story set $1000
Three slides, product link or branded tag included.
Reel $2000
Posted in feed, stays live.
Whitelisting and licensing available.
Photography
Day rate $2000
Retouching $150 per hour
If usage extends past one month, we add licensing based on how many images you’re running, how often, and where they live.
Events
2 hours $1300
4 hours $2200
Half day or full evening $3200
Full day or large scale events $5000 plus
This includes curated selects, refined retouching, final files ready for both print and web, and a quick set for socials if needed.
If a brand wants both event coverage and a social collab post, we simply combine the two. Social lives on top of the event rate.
Everything here scales depending on scope, deliverables, and how much coverage or visibility you want.
