Frequently asked questions
Answers before you need them.
How much does automotive photography cost?
Snappr charges $279 for a 2-hour automotive shoot, which is $140 an hour and the same price in every US city. A 15% service fee is added at checkout. Photographers across every shoot type charge $139 to $300 an hour in the US.
How long does an automotive shoot take?
85 minutes on average across 1,710 US bookings in the last year. That is why 2 hours is the length to book: a shoot cannot run for 85 minutes, and of the two lengths either side, the shorter is the one that runs out on the day.
How many photos do I get?
On All-inclusive, every edited photo from the shoot is yours with no per-photo charge, typically about 80 an hour, so roughly 160 from a 2-hour shoot. Image enhancement is included.
What is the shortest automotive shoot I can book?
1 hour, up to 2. Longer shoots cost less per hour, so one long booking beats several short ones.
Does the price change by city?
No. The rate is set nationally, so an automotive shoot costs the same in New York as it does in Akron. The market figures here are US-wide averages, so local photographers may charge more or less. The first hour carries the same booking fee wherever the shoot runs: $59 on All-inclusive.
