What are my options to fix a gummy smile, and how much does it cost? (photo)

From your photo, it looks like you have a short clinical crown height of your anterior teeth. There does not seem to be a skeletal problem (e. g. vertical upper jaw excess) or short upper lip. There are various ways to treat a gummy smile. The height of the overlying gum is determined mostly by the height of the underlying bone. Hence your Dentist/Periodontist will need to examine you clinically and radiographically in order to recommend a suitable treatment plan for you.
