TWO DAY SESSION:DAY 1 THURSDAY SEPT 9, 2021
WEDDINGS FROM BEGINNING TO END:
As a wedding photographer since the late 1970's my goal is to highlight the things that are critical to all photographers when covering a wedding. The day's session will start with that first phone call you get from that potential customer to cover their wedding, what to ask your potential customer, to the delivery of their beautiful album, portraits, prints, digitals.Summary:
I will walk you through the detailed steps I take when being hired to cover a wedding to delivery of 'precious' keepsakes.INTRODUCTION to the Do's and Don'ts of Weddings. Talking to your customer, what to ask, how to ask it? A detailed discussion on services and product offerings. Defining the difference between a Retainer vs. a Deposit, working with contracts and getting your contract signed. How to handle date changes, cancellations, and refunds. Identifying which lens to use and when. Flash or no Flash? Questions? Questions? Be ready!Once the event is done, posting photos of their wedding on social media do’s and don’ts.
