Headshot Pricing in NYC: Where Rory Stands Out

  • Under $100: Entry-level photographers, often lacking the experience and polish that a professional session provides.

  • $100-$300: “Shoot and burn” photographers who offer minimal retouching and lack the refinement of more experienced professionals.

  • $300-$700: This is the “sweet spot” for quality and affordability. Rory Lewis excels here, providing professional studio sessions with custom retouching and a polished final product.

  • $700-$1500: For clients looking for a broader range of images or an extended session with multiple looks.

  • $1500+: Reserved for celebrity photographers or comprehensive branding sessions with a full team, including makeup artists and assistants.
