FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is based on time, but any professional photographer will want to know as much detail as possible. Are there special requirements, what equipment to bring, what lighting is required, what time is the photo shoot (for natural light photography, this is critical), how many people (more people simply takes longer), etc.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I always offer a no-cost, no obligation consultation on any job. On larger or complex jobs, I prefer to meet for the consult in person. Once I understand the client needs and what the location requires in terms of equipment, I am better prepared to exceed client expectations. Once the photo session or shoot has been completed, I upload the images to a secure online gallery. After the client has chosen the poses, I professionally re-touch the images. The images are then output to meet the client's intended use (example, prints, web, 4-color process printing, etc.). I have absolutely no problem traveling to a client's location for a session or a consultation. If the client does not have a location in mind, I have many different locations for practically any need. I also have a very well equipped studio only minutes from downtown Louisville. Visa, MasterCard, AMEX accepted.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have 20+ years experience in a myriad of photography genres. I am also an expert-level re-toucher and re-touch my own images. Too many workshops and other training to begin to list them. B.S. in Visual Communications, have worked as an Art Director for one of the areas largest Advertising Agencies. FAA Licensed Commercial UAS (drone) pilot. Allen Holz Photography is a Veteran owned business.
