The Perfect Wedding Package is live!
What most of us end up doing...
We work on projects that can barely pay the rent, and end up having to settle for a "9-to-5."
As a photographer...
We start with so much passion and excitement.
And then one day, a friend of ours says they're getting married - and they WANT YOU to shoot it
"Wait really!? But, I've only been doing this for fun up 'til now. I can't charge my friend thousands of dollars."
So instead, you tell them it's only gonna be $250.
(Even though, looking back, they would've been more than happy to pay you more.)
An even worse scenario is to charge nothing for a wedding shoot because you feel like you need more practice.
"SO MUCH OF OUR PRICING IS BASED ON CONFIDENCE AND PERCEPTION."
And so you quietly, bump along to your next wedding. This time, it's a friend of a friend.
You think, "Well, I can't jump too high - I'll charge $300 for this wedding."
And on and on, you barely bump up your prices as to not "disturb the waters" or appear too ambitious.
You think to yourself, "If I charge $2,500, I'll look like a money-hungry con artist."
And on top of that - I don't even know what I excuse I would say to client if they pushed back. I would run scared back down to $300 - because it feels safe.
At least I won't get a "No." Right?
Cheers,
