FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing will vary on the type of booking and the type of package, for our clients' convenience we offer multiple options to suit their needs.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
For larger projects, we require a retainer. With weddings and commercial jobs, we like to meet with our clients and go over their vision and package options. From there we go over the contract and set up dates and times to shoot.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Catalyst started in 2012, but we've been taking photos, editing, and growing as artists for over ten years. Photography started as a hobby for Jen in high school, when she convinced her mom to give her an old, 35mm Nikon. Over the years people started asking her for various photo sessions (her first wedding shoot was actually Jesse’s). In college Jen started to take graphic design & photography classes, as well as business courses. She eventually started showing her work in a few local art shows. Jesse is fully self-taught and has always had a heart for photography. He used to sit in bookstores and thumb through photography books for hours. He started dabbling in graphic design and photography while doing church media for years, and it expanded slowly. Eventually, after Jen started to take photos for people, Jesse offered to help her with editing. After a few years of doing this, we decided it just made sense to open a business together. We bought cameras and equipment and the rest is history.
