Phoenix Metro, Arizona

Services

With a solid journalism background while working as a model, photographer, and actress, Cassie Hepler offers a rare behind-the-scenes insight into all sides of each world.

MODELING/ACTING RATES
My hourly local rates are $125 for an hour, half-day (four hours) at $500, and full-day (eight hours) from $800 to $1,000, depending on usage. If I am traveling out of my area, all travel expenses must be covered (i.e. flight, hotel, gas, tolls, and food). Rates are negotiable depending on the project, so please inquire for details. I am happy to work within your budget, as I am an artist at heart.

Shoots can be up to and including tasteful nudes. I can also do my own make-up, hair, and wardrobe/set styling if needed but prefer working with professionals as it gives that extra zing to the finished photos. If you need a studio or place to shoot, I know many local studio owners, photographers, and artists in Phoenix, Arizona.

What we love to do

Creating content is Cassie Hepler’s favorite part of each day! From the beginning planning stages to filming, shooting, or writing and then publishing the content… it’s all second nature to her.

 

WRITING RATES
This is relative to the project at hand but always affordable and negotiable. For instance, if you would like me to write a press release, that would obviously be lower than ghostwriting a whole book or writing your website versus updating or editing your resume or cover letter. I write articles and copywriting on any subject and have experience covering everything from politics, business, food, and fashion. Please view my LinkedIn profile for a complete, updated listing of my experience.

What we’re best at

Networking and getting the word out about your brand! After living in Philadelphia for 12 years and making solid business connections on the East Coast, the network has flourished even more on the West Coast and worldwide!

 

SMALL WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY
I am available to photograph your most cherished moments from your home or hotel to the chapel, capturing those precious memories that last a lifetime. You will receive a timely turnaround (1-2 weeks) and I will provide you with a link to high-resolution photos that you may print at your convenience.

Please contact me with wedding details for rates. Most weddings begin around $1,000 for up to seven hours of coverage and may include a second photographer free of charge. My style is photojournalism, perfect for those who like to think outside the box!
