FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing for design is based on the size of the project. If it is going to be an all day session where there will be a lot of different set ups the cost would be based on the number of hours required. A typical real estate session is based on two things that go hand in hand really, the square footage and price point of the home and if there are extensive exterior shots of estate grounds, amenities, etc. Typically a 3000 sq ft home would not be as difficult to shoot as a 15,000 sq foot home with tennis courts and a large pool situated on 25 acres of land. So each is priced according to time shooting and editing. I always ask clients to contact me to discuss pricing unless we've worked together before and they know the pricing structure. I always try to work with clients who have a budget for their design sessions if they are involved in a commercial project.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am constantly enrolled in ongoing photography courses. The industry is always changing and growing. Everything from the way you run your business to new techniques, the latest equipment and software. I also travel for photography and do international workshops to take my skills to next level.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I picked up a camera one day and it was decided for me. I chose to learn every thing about photography that I could so that I would understand as much as I could about creating images with light and developing those images into forms of art.
