WEDDINGS: LOCAL + DESTINATION
For local weddings with me as your lead photographer, investments start at $2650 for 6 hours of coverage, which includes all the final digital images. I also personally edit every single image.
Regarding travel, I have well over 30 Destinations under my belt as a professional photographer- from locations such as London, St John, Aruba, Mexico (3x), Jamaica (2x), Bermuda (2x), Dominican Republic, and. St Croix. I’ve shot weddings in other cites such as Montreal, San Francisco, Naples FL, Cape Hatteras, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Burlington, Newport, Cape Cod, The Adirondacks (3x), and many others in the North East.
I’ll propose a custom package with an engagement session, full wedding day coverage, and wherever I go- a camera comes with me to capture the trip. This custom package will also include flight, hotel, all expenses, and of course photography for the main event- I’ll book everything myself. I would love to meet with you to discuss your destination plans!
HEADSHOTS + PORTRAITS
Rates for headshots start at $300 which includes 2 final retouched images. Family portraiture in studio starts at $200. For on location, corporate, lifestyle, or any other specific shoot, please call or email the studio. I travel often with my mobile studio for corporate headshots and events. I can provide you multiple gallery links, and package options.
ABOUT J.FERRARA
Long story short, I purchased my first professional camera in 8th grade, and considered myself a photographer ever since. I later graduated with a BFA in Cinematography and minor in Photography. Right after college, I worked in the film business as a Camera Assistant with Local 600 on movies and commercials. I started working with the Saturday Night Live Film Unit, and was a part of that team for the next 10 years.
Along the way, I built a darkroom in my home to develop and print B&W film. That was the beginning of the end of my motion picture career. I was hooked all over again with creating photographic art. In 2003, I officially started a professional photography business in the Hudson Valley, and left the world of movie making and SNL in 2007.
Coming from a filmmaker’s background has given me a pronounced advantage in telling a story through still images, as well as being extremely efficient with a given timeline. I’m also an active member of the Professional Photographers of America, and over the years have won countless awards on a National and State level. I earned my Masters and Craftsmanship of Photography with the PPA in 2010, and I’m a PPA Certified Professional Photographer. Feel free to reach out for any photographic needs, I’d be happy to brainstorm with you!
