Commissioned Portraits start at $1,800.00
I come from a background of commercial photography and have always been drawn to creating something different and unique. Creative directors I worked with often felt the same and were trying to push for an edge that would make their client's product stand out from their competitors' offerings.
A few years back I thought, why not bring this approach to portraiture photography. Friends, familiar with my advertising and personal work, came to me, looking for something they would not see in a yearbook or on their in-laws' mantel piece. Something that wouldn't make visitors say "Your kids are so sweet. What a lovely smile. Those braces sure worked a treat." but instead "How did you do that? I love it! That’s crazy!"
Photographs are individually tailored to commissioning families by incorporating interests, skills and passions of all family members into the conceptual planning process.
Here are a few of those images that have made people stop and stare:

ADD ONS
individual portraits of family members @$180.-/person if shot on the same day. $500.-/person if shot on a different day.
custom printing and framing, e.g. Fujiflex print, aluminum and acrylic sandwich mount, wooden backing frame with French cleat, starting at $500.- Prices vary by size and customization regarding materials, optional non-reflective coating and polishing techniques.
Images are generally posted to the official @jensluckingphotography Instagram account and potentially other Instagram accounts, if applicable, as my photographs generate interest among new clients and generate new portrait commissions. Should you wish not to have your photographs published on social media, this can be accommodated at an additional fee of $500.- but please do let me know in advance.
Deposit required before commencement of shoot: $1,000.00
