i'm starting to obsess over your videos, like you are amazing and I really hope to become a successful photographer like you💕
tips are really good mam
I am crap as marketing manager….
What would you have on the contract?
I'm 13 and recently started doing landscape fotography and food photography. I find it so cool and fun and I'm just using my iPhone XS camera to take photos. I'm planning on buying a more proffesional camera so I can start doing portrait fotography. I was thinking of the Nikon D750 or Canon EOS 80D. What camera should I go for? And my instragram is btw @emil05_ and @emils.kithcenn if you want to check them out! 😀
I just started out my YouTube channel and my photography business so thank u for this video! As a teenager, starting out in this industry as a part time job built from a hobby is hard work and enjoyable, but I’ve still tried to gather as much info from YouTube as possible.
So, I'm ready to start getting paid for photography. I know I can contact friends/family to do things, but how would you guys go about getting gigs, whether it be portraits, head shots etc? I know I can also use social media, and ask people to spread the word, but a lot of people don't always do that lol. Thanks!
Thanks for this Video i am a graphic Designer And Soon will finish school… But i also love product photography And will do this too. 🙂 The idea of a website is greaaaat
I Love the Color grade in this video!!
Awesome tips, thank you Jessica!
This really helped me i know i had to make a portfolio but i havent been taking a lot of photos.
The header text you use in your PDF is hard to read.
Ps super love your videos 💋😘🥰
Sometimes you sound like Vanellope from Wreck it Ralph. Haha.
Thank you for the tips. 🙌🏻
You’re looking gorgeous. 😍👌🏽
Hey Jessica! I have a question for you. I'm only the beginner in photography and now I'm just taking pictures of my friends and some people who I have already met with. Should I take money from them? I really waste my time during retouching photos, so how I have to arrange with them?
P.S. Sorry for mistakes that could be here, I'm not native speaker 🙁
Thanks for an answer💖
you should do a collab with peter mckinnon
Are there pdfs for contracts ?
i am the very beginner as a photographer. what if it's a very small gig for like 30 dollars graduation shoot of my friend?
you talked about pressuring clients and there are so many standards that applies to different kind of people in different country with different cultures.
i've never had a contract with a friend with a gig that small, but should i make them sign a contract anyway? because right now i feel like making a contract with gig that small to a friend counts as a pressuring the client.
Up to the point tips really help
We do struggle to get interaction on Instagram if you have any tips just holla x
Do you have a template for your contracts?
In the summer i look for girls taking selfies on the boardwalk and ask them if i can follow them around and take natural looking pics for $50 bucks and i hang with them for 15 20 mins then just transfer the pics from the cam to their phone. Boom easy cheese.
Do you still offer the link to your contract?
Currently making a contract. I did a photoshoot recently and didnt have a contract, thankfully we both had good trust with each other 😅
Any advice on how to send photos to clients?
Great video Jessica… i have to work on my website… big hugs !
Thank you so much for sharing all of your tips!! When do you require your clients to pay you the remaining balance? Before or after you've sent them the work?
By the way your video's are great. for the record two months ago i watched one of your video's on affordable studio equipment now i have a "DIY HOME BASE STUDIO" all thanks to your tips
HEY JESSICA, DON'T YOU HAVE A VIDEO OUT ON YOUR PORTFOLIO…
So helpful! Thanks so much Jessica❤ I already started doing photoshoots for paying clients without a contract because I'm not 18 yet, what would you suggest I do?? For people who aren't 18 yet but doing photography as an income
This video was so helpful! I din't even think of a contract. I'm trying to start my business, but I don't know how to do anything basically. I have a website I have social media I have my style down. I've been practicing on my cousin and friends. And on my Facebook I got a request, but I had to turn them down because I don't have any taxes or licensee type things done I haven't filled my website or anything. Could you do a video on taxes and what you have to do for legal stuff and how clients pay you? I have a paypal now, but I think some photographers use cash or checks too. Not sure how to do all that stuff and I'm trying to figure it out. Also the pdf thing isa very good idea.
