Beautiful Portraits are the Byproduct of an Amazing Experience
In this presentation, Cate and Molly will cover everything you need to do in order to have a successful senior portrait business.
They will begin with their “why” and how that affects every decision we make when working with a senior client and their parent/guardian. They will then explore how to build a trusting relationship with both the seniors and their parents—taking the class through the pre-session consultation, conversations before the session, the day of experience, ordering/viewing, and product delivery.
During the hands-on portion of the class, we will explore various types of lighting and posing to achieve a variety of looks and moods for each client—everything from natural light to soft OCF, to dramatic “big sky” and sports lighting. We will discuss our favorite modifiers and “tricks” to achieve variety and very sellable images to clients.
