    I’m 15 years old and use a canon T5 and I take photography classes but I don’t know how to charge people for pictures because they don’t take me serious since I’m only 15 and not considered a β€œprofessional” so no one thinks they should pay me.

    Love this video! I've been doing photography for just over a year and just started to try to sell my photos earlier this year and have been struggling with pricing.

    When you said diverse group of girls, I cried a little because that made me smile. I love seeing photographers who captures things that the media wouldn't find "attractive", and you seem really passionate in what you do. I have seen photographers here on youtube, doing the same looking, skinny, models, it kind of boring, but your photos stand out.

    Hi! I’m a newbie to portrait photography so I was wondering if you could please make a video about delivering photos to clients and how to upload photos to social media/blogs?

    I first thought your dog was a pillow. 😭

    I watched your pricing video after this video. Your image without all the makeup is far superior. With all the makeup, you look phony and impersonal. I enjoy your videos, keep up the good work.
