I will generally meet with them to find out exactly what they need from the photos well before the shoot so as to be fully prepared and give the client time to come up with answers to questions if there are any unanswered.

I have a Bachelor of Science in Photography and Graphic Arts Technology as well as many additional classes, seminars, workshops and years of on the job experience and learning.

I price based on the details of the shoot and how the photos will be used so it varies a great deal from shoot to shoot.

I studied photography in college, assisted over 100 different photographers over 6 years as a freelance assistant, became a producers of stock photo shoots for 6 years and then opned my own commercial photography business.

For the majority of my career I have produced stock photography with Getty Images and Corbis. I've also done magazine work, clothing catalog work (both on and off model), architectural, musicians, weddings, portraits, and events. I am still an on call / contract photographer with the Boeing Company.

It's become much easier in the last decade or so to make a decent photograph. It's still extremely hard to make great photographs. If you want to better your chances of great photography hire someone with lots of experience.
