FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
For a regular family portrait the session fee is $50. If you have multiple families, the session fee is $30 per family. My print pricing is on my website under the "pricing" tab. If you prefer to order the entire DVD of the shoot so you can print as many photos and as big as you want, you can purchase the DVD for $400. (The cost of a DVD for multiple families is more depending on how many families). I am currently offering 5 hours of wedding coverage for $1200.00 That includes the DVD (not retouched) copyright free. You can also order prints and albums from me as well. If you want to purchase additional hours it is $150 per hour.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First we figure out a location and date/time. If it is a new location (outdoors) then I normally scope it out prior to the date of our photoshoot so I am prepared for the spots I think would be nice to do some photos. I would then meet the customer at the location of choice to do the photographs. Depending on how many people are involved it normally takes 1-2 hours to capture the images we want. I then edit the photographs and upload them to my website for viewing. The clients then tell me what they would like to order and it takes approximately 1-2 weeks for the photos to print. I would then deliver the photographs to the client (or mail them if they prefer).
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have an associates degree in Photography obtained from Villa Maria College.
