Reality check first, sales pitch never
Most companies think they just "need some photos." But what they usually need is clarity on their goals to inform the photos.
I'll ask you questions that matter so you and I can figure out what you're actually trying to achieve and if photoshoots can help get you there.
I'll always be real and never waste your time! That's good news for you.
Really detailed and really important
If you ask me, "What's your rate?" I'll say, "I don't know because I don't have one."
Every project is different and everyone's goals are different. I don't charge by the hour or by the photo, but rather by where you want to end up and what it'll take to get you there.
We'll have a 50-minute video call or real-life meeting where we'll talk in-depth about your project and goals. We can check out photos you've already taken with your phone, and we'll map out a basic shot list so we're clear on what we'll be photographing and why.
Then, I'll send you a proposal with a solid project rate based on exactly what you need. You'll never have a generic photo package shoved in your face.
No surprises ever
The rate I send you is not an ambiguous estimate. It's a quote you can count on, and it covers everything except additional retouching if you need it (most people don't need it).
You'll pay the full shoot rate upfront and then we'll schedule your shoot date. That's it.
I'll handle all the logistics and planning, and you'll get a status page to track everything (due dates, timelines, status, links, and everything else you'd want to know).
I handle the logistics, you relax
Each shoot is easy, smooth, and organized because all of the planning has been done.
I'll manage the timeline, keep us on track, and help direct the day.
You'll stay involved and present, but the coordination and decision-making is already taken care of. You'll never need to stress about what's next or if we're getting the shots we need.
That means you can finally experience a pro photoshoot that's stress-free, fun, and specifically designed to help your business grow, not to get some random pictures with no gameplan in mind.
Home stretch
I'll complete standard edits on everything from the shoot, which means you'll receive images that are true-to-life and beautiful.
Simple fixes and clean ups (outlet removal, exit signs, small eyesores, etc.) are all included in your shoot. Because the shoot day was organized to get the details right in real life, you'll rarely need additional in-depth retouching.
After you review the images, you can give the thumbs-up or let me know if anything needs adjusting. The project isn't done until you're happy.
Worth doing right
We're done. You won't end up with a folder of photos that will just sit on your computer. You'll have images that will actually move your business toward the goals we talked about in our first conversations.
Each step of your shoot was purposeful to make sure every photo helps the right people understand how you can serve them.
And I'll always be a text or phone call away if you need anything.
