Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

My pricing is structured based on photography/videography hours and any creative direction required. Creative direction is billed at $200 per hour, and for small shoots, it’s a flat rate of $200. The total amount depends on the concept and type of shoot we’re planning.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

For brand photography and videography projects, I start with a short questionnaire to understand your needs and vision. After reviewing your answers, we’ll discuss ideas and any questions you have. Once we’re aligned on the vision, I’ll request a prepayment, and then we dive into creative direction and planning for the shoot.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I’ve completed a range of professional photography, marketing, and psychology courses that directly support my work, especially in brand photography. My hands-on experience has equipped me with both the theoretical and practical knowledge to bring out the best in every project.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I’ve always been passionate about photography, starting with portrait and event photography to capture people and moments in their most genuine form. Over time, I realized this passion could help businesses as well. My journey began in a small town where I noticed talented local businesses with minimal online presence. I wanted to help them bring their vision to life, showcasing the soul and passion behind what they do to attract more customers and make a lasting impact.

What types of customers have you worked with?

I’ve worked with a diverse range of clients, including business owners, individuals, and event organizers.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

I genuinely enjoy working with every brand and individual who’s passionate about what they do, especially when projects involve creative direction. Each project is a unique experience, allowing me to bring a vision to life and craft visuals that truly showcase my clients at their best. It’s rewarding to collaborate closely and add that creative touch that makes each project memorable.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

If you connect with the vibe of a professional’s work and communication flows well, trust your intuition—this could be the perfect match for your vision.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

Consider: “Why do I want to hire a photographer? What outcome am I aiming for with these photos or videos?” and “Do I have a concept in mind, or am I open to the photographer’s creative vision?” Thinking these through can help us create results that resonate with your goals.
