No Photography Session Fee? Reasons Why.

1.  To make your experience totally risk free, so you can be more relaxed during the session and not worry about whether you'll be happy with the results.

2.  The most important thing is to create amazing images for you.  Why would anyone not charge a session fee if they weren't confident they could create these kinds of images?  Most photographers (and many businesses) don't even offer a 100% money back offer.  The best they might do is offer a free re-shoot.  If the photographer was at fault for creating poor images, why would you want a re-shoot (unless due to an equipment malfunction)?

3.  It's the most ethical way to charge for a service of any kind.

4.  The more confident a photographer is, and to do this, the photographer must be confident, the more likely it will be that you will get excellent images.  If a photographer has over 30 years experience in photography, you can be confident, too, that you will receive beautiful images.

5.  My invitation for anyone reading this is to consider this strategy and how it will benefit you and act on the opportunity, without any fear about poor results.

NOTE:  If I begin doing this, there is one other thing you will need to be aware of, and it will be in our contract.  And that is this:  I will collect your credit card information, and should you fail to cancel or show up for your session, there will be a cancellation fee probably $100), as that time will have been reserved for you.  Most likely you will be able to cancel with a 48 hour notice without any charge.  Perhaps even less time with extremely extenuating circumstances, but that would be at my discretion.

In my next photography post, I'll explain why I don't sell digital images.  When you order a print or several prints, you do receive the images of those prints only in digital format, both high and low resolution.

My next post will be some new vaccine information with links.  After all, the more you know, the better decisions you can make.
