Things to Know

Random bits of info about your Arken Studios Senior Photography Experience

We only photograph 100 seniors per year.  That’s it!  Once those appointments are booked, we can no longer accept any more.  Since we are a small boutique studio, we’ve chosen to give our all to those 100.  Therefore, due to the limited number of sessions, we require that sessions be paid for in full when you book your appointment.  We accept all major credit cards or we can also accept checks.

Session fees are separate, based on time and outfit changes, and are non-refundable.  Beyond the Session fees, all Senior sessions do require a minimum investment amount.  This can easily be met with our attractive package selections or by purchasing from our A La Carte menu.   The minimum investment amount is due at the time of your session.

Packages begin at $495.  We have packages to suit everyone’s needs from basic prints to Digital File packages. Our most popular package is our full treatment packages. Grad Cards, DVD Slideshows, Wall Portraits, Custom Collages and 411 cards.  We are not the Mall or School photography studio where price is valued over quality.  At Arken Studios we pull out all stops to make your Senior photography session an experience of a lifetime.

Where will your photos be taken?  Although we do have session options where we will come to your home or favorite location, your best option is for you to come to our Sebastopol Studio.  We have both an indoor studio with an assortment of backdrops and props,  as well as 2 acres of property to explore and photograph on.  Not to mention the fact that we have the best photographic lighting equipment at our fingertips to ensure fantastic images!

What about Clothing?  Our style focuses on YOU, so bring as much of your wardrobe as you want.  We will coordinate your outfits to combine awesomely with your session to create the best images.
