Accepted Answer

I have always had an eye for a balance and composition, even as a young 15yr old! this was confirmed in around 2001 when I helped a motocross sports photographer for the 1st time. In minutes I had understood his needs and started shooting great action shots! That was the start of my photo love!

Question 6

Why should a customer hire you over another service provider?

Professional, honest, great service, good pricing, an eye for detail.  I listen to your brief and we discuss options to ensure a good result.  I'm not the most expensive photographer out there!  :)

Question 7

What are the typical things that you need to know before you can provide a quote to a customer?

Accepted Answer

A brief can be a formal document or a simple email, as long as it details the item(s) to be photographed, the due date, any specific times, the location(s), the usage for the requested images and all contact details.  Enough information to minimise further questions.  A good brief priceless.

Question 8

How do you normally charge for your service?

Accepted Answer

My pricing has a structure, mainly based on the hours required to complete a shoot.  I start st $275 which covers up to 2 hours onsite including discussion, set up and shoot time, plus a small fee per finished image which covers the post production editing to bring each image to its best look and feel.  So the client is in charge of their final cost depending on how many images they need or choose.  1hrs car travel time is included.  Depending on the assignment, on occasion parking is extra if within the Melbourne CBD area.

Question 9

Is there a particular aspect of your trade or industry that you specialise in?

Accepted Answer

I specialise in Real Estate and Architectural foremost, plus Events really are great fun too whether a Corporate function or event like a Sporting or Charity event and Gala dinner or a private party like a 40th Birthday party gathering.  Plus of course, portrait / head shots are also such an important part of todays online world.
