5 for 5 | Murphy, NC Senior Photographer

1/30/2014

0 Comments

 
$5 SESSIONS! For real?

Yep! For real.  These will be great for a last-minute high school senior session; if you already had your senior portraits taken and weren't happy with them; OR if you'd like a session for graduation invitations.

So, what's the gist, physicist?  (You'll have to excuse my big bang vernacular ... I've been snowed in for 3 days and guess what was showing in my house? ;) 

These sessions are for CLASS OF 2014 ONLY and there are a few limitations.  
  • The sessions will be held downtown and will be 30 minute sessions with one outfit. 
  • You only have 5 days to book and pay for your session. (hurry up!)
  • Session must be scheduled anytime before April 15
  • Products available will be prints and graduation invitations only - no albums or specialty products available
  • Add an additional 30 minutes and outfit for $25.  (You may add up to 6 total)
READY TO BOOK YOUR SESSION? Scroll down, choose the number of outfits, and click the button!
THEN - give us a call at 828-835-2088 to set up your date and time.

Please note:  ANY SESSIONS PAID FOR OTHER THAN CLASS OF 2014 SENIORS WILL BE REFUNDED.

We've had so much interest since the last workshop that we are offering another one!  This workshop will teach the same concepts (how to use your camera, settings, composition and natural lighting) but we are throwing in a bonus!  This time, we will have a child model present to practice on!  I will show you how to get those "real life" shots to help preserve those every day memories you don't want to forget!

Why is Newborn Photography so expensive? [ Murphy NC Photo Studio ]

1/24/2014

0 Comments

 
Recently, I saw an image kind of like the one below (except there was an actual baby in it).  Set cost was around $500.  I thought, "Surely not!".  Well, I grabbed one of my least expensive sets and decided to do the whole "How much does a set really cost".  Turns out it's quite a bit.  I got my pricing from ebay to etsy which were the lowest prices I could find.  (Try to buy new or for a girl and see how much it costs!)

Considering a newborn photographer normally has at least 3 sets (we have 5 stationary sets and close to 20 "switch-outs")  you're talking an investment of around $750-$1000 just in startup set costs.  Wow!  This is JUST for newborns!  

NOW, that's not counting camera bodies, lenses, lighting, overhead, safety training, workshops, computers, software, additional props and backdrops for families, kids, seniors, and I could go on and on and on and on.  But I won't because I'm sure you get the picture ;) Well, that and because that was the longest run-on sentence ever.

You'll have a lifetime of wide-eyed wonder and goofy grins but you only get ONE chance for newborn pictures!
Make it count.

I sure wish I could find the other photographer's image!  I would link to her.  (Her name is Kimberly ? - if anyone wants to share her info with me, I'll be glad to post a link).
