Graduation photography prices by shoot length

Live prices, anywhere in the US. The market column is what a session costs on the open market, spread over the 90 minutes this category typically runs, so the comparison is over the same shoot. At 1 hour, All-inclusive costs more than the typical market rate, because Snappr's first hour carries a fixed booking fee. Each added hour costs less than the market's, so from 2 hours it comes in under. Snappr Value is available on your first booking only.

What that works out to per hour
