Hey Tim! How Much Does It Cost?

Today I’m going to answer one of my most frequently asked questions – “Tim, how much does it cost?”

-Great question.

You may notice I don’t post my prices online.  And the reason for that is that it would take way too much space to list all the things that make up a price.

What do I mean by that?

Finished products – there are so many unique things I create, and trying to type about them online does no justice for them.  They are things that you physically have to see in person, touch, feel, and ponder.

My whole product line is made from the highest quality materials from the best of the best professional labs in our country.  I do this so that your images will be passed down through generations – which is the whole point of having your photos made.

The second point for figuring out a price, is once you have come to the shop to see what you like, we chat about your session.  Once I know what it is you like, and how we are going to present your images, then I know which gear to bring, and how much time it will take to create the images you want.  We simply add the time and materials needed for your finished piece together, and BAM you have a price.  J

So – just stop in the shop, see what you like, we’ll talk about your session, and get you a price.

Liz Valentine's Headshot Session

As always, we had a blast with Liz!  Her fun, happy, energetic personality is SO contagious! Liz is the owner/operator of Studio V Media & Photography in Port Allegany, and we often work together, weather we are taking pictures for each other's families, talking "shop", or just hanging out for some fun. For this shoot, Liz has just become the proud new owner of a Cannon 70-200mm f/2.8 lens.  If you don't know what that means - it is a REALLY BIG LENS that EVERY photographer wants, and once they have it... it becomes part of their family.  Its generally one of the most favorited pieces of glass ever created - so, yes, it is worth getting a photo shoot for yourself to celebrate the occasion!

Competition? What Competition?

Photography Often, we are asked how we make our photography business thrive when there are so many competitors out there, especially in a rural and isolated location like ours.  Sure, there are mom-togs, those who do it for a hobby, those who undercut our prices, those that far out price us, those that offer downloads, free prints, etc., etc.  After all, in a boutique business like ours, people are going to either love our work or hate it.  They're either going to come to us or go somewhere else.  That's okay.  We're here to help those people that love our style, our personalities, and our art.  Sometimes what we offer doesn't fit the customer's choice.  That is okay. Hopefully we can help them out in some other way.  Perhaps we can give them guidance on what to wear , a checklist for wedding preparations , or even recommendations for a colleague that might suit them better.

Black and White - Conversion VS Infrared, See the Difference.

Digital Black and white photography can be created through many techniques.  You could use the Instagram app and click a pre-made filter,  use a more advanced software program like Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop, convert it directly inside your camera body, screw on an infrared filter to the front of your lens and convert it to black and white post production, or convert a camera to only capture infrared light.  Today I'm just going to explore my two favorite methods: 1) Using an infrared converted camera. 2) Converting images in Adobe Lightroom. So what is the difference between the two methods? A color image that is converted to black and white allows you lots of control over each color channel.  This is handy if you want to make different colors stand out by being brightened or darkened in your final black and white image. An image that is captured from infrared light has much less control over colors as the only colors captured are tones of red.  Ho...
