FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have a two hour minimum and I charge a non-refundable deposit at the time of booking.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The typical process involves making sure that the potential customer understands my style (documentary). Most other photographers are traditional. I am not. I'll direct them to my website, Then we'll talk about where and when you want me and I'll leave the conversation open so you can ask me anything. Finally, I'll have to draft the appropriate paperwork and collect a deposit. That's it!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've started shooting professionally in 1979. Most of my education was for working as a freelance photographer's assistant. I was a freelance professional in NYC. I worked mostly for magazines (Business Week, Forbes, Eastern Airlines). Also, did documentary photography which took me to Nicaragua, Panama, Gaza and the West Bank. In the last 4 years, I've moved into documentary wedding photography. My mentor/teacher has been Kevin Mullins from England. You can Google him to get a really good idea of the style I aspire to. Kevin is really good at putting in words the whole idea about documentary wedding photography.
