My First Photoshoot

In case you missed my post. I had my first paying photography clients yesterday. The two year old twins wouldn't stop crying so it was incredibly hard. I got about 30 pictures and I was happy with what I got. But the mother doesn't seem too happy. She is only purchasing two photos. I am so hard on myself. I can't stop obsessing about what I could have done to make it better. I I'm only charging her $40 which includes shooting for an hour and my time to edit. She will also get the rights to two photos. I wish she would have been more happy with the photos. I offered to shoot her family again in the spring time, but she didn't respond to that. I think I will stick with shooting nature.

Married the love of my life on 1-21-12. Our princess arrived on 5-28-13.

Re: My First Photoshoot

  • I know it's discouraging, but I wouldn't let one bad client ruin your goals. I don't think it's your fault her kids didn't cooperate, and if she had a "professional" photographer, she wouldn't have gotten any deal for them not doing what she wanted them to.

  • I agree not to be hard on yourself.  She probably wouldn't have been happy with "professional" photos either if her kids were crying and hard to photograph. 

    Hugs!

  • I am extremely picky! I would be that lady. Sometimes it's them not you!
