In this episode, I'll be sharing my camera settings for indoor and outdoor photography sessions. It's important to note that these settings are not one-size-fits-all and may vary depending on your camera, lenses, location, and lighting conditions. I'll provide specific settings for outdoor sessions, indoor sessions, and studio sessions, including ISO, aperture, shutter speed, and white balance.

Additionally, I'll discuss the importance of shooting in manual mode and underexposing to capture more detail in post-editing.

HIGHLIGHTS:

• Camera settings depend on the camera, lenses, location, and lighting conditions.
• ISO should be as low as possible while still providing enough light.
• Aperture (f-stop) can be kept low for most sessions to let in more light.
• Shutter speed affects the amount of detail captured and should be adjusted for movement.
• Shooting in Kelvin white balance allows for more control over tones and skin tones.

In this episode, I share the behind-the-scenes details of my successful Black Friday sale for my local photography clients. I'll discuss the offer I created, how I marketed it, and the results I achieved.

Additionally, I'll provide valuable lessons learned and takeaways for photographers planning their own Black Friday offers.

HIGHLIGHTS:

1. Black Friday may not be the best time to promote sessions due to the overwhelming competition.
2. Consider waiting until closer to Cyber Monday or doing a December flash sale instead.
3. Consistent marketing and nurturing client relationships are crucial for successful sales.
4. Prioritize understanding your goals and crafting an offer that aligns with them.
5. People often wait until the last minute to take advantage of sales, so follow up and remind them.

In this episode, I discuss the importance of pricing your photography sessions profitably from the very beginning. I emphasize the need to use a pricing formula that takes into account your lifestyle, goals, and expenses. I also advise  photographers to craft packages that support their client experience and showcase their value. I caution against offering free or cheap sessions for too long and becoming reliant on discounts. 

Additionally, I recommend using easy, straightforward, whole numbers when pricing packages. I conclude by suggesting that photographers stick with their prices for a minimum of three months and aim to convert at least 40% of their leads.

HIGHLIGHTS:

• Price your sessions profitably from the beginning to ensure a profitable and sustainable business.
• Craft packages that support your client experience and showcase your value as a photographer.
• Avoid offering free or cheap sessions for too long and becoming reliant on discounts.
• Use easy, straightforward, whole numbers when pricing your packages.
• Stick with your prices for a minimum of three months and aim to convert at least 40% of your leads.
