Welcome to my blog. On this page you will find articles I personally write about the photography industry and my work. You will also see blogs showing the photos from many of my photo sessions.
What are the types of photography clients I love working with most?
Those in the field of wedding and portrait photography know that there are all types of clients. Believe me, I have worked with all types of clients while owner of Lori Black Photography.
Here are some characteristics of the clients I love working with the most.
Those willing to take the time to get the photos
Sometimes people just don’t realize how much time is needed to get the best photos. Maybe brides and grooms don’t schedule enough time to schedule their portraits. Maybe people want to just “get it done” without taking the time to do the photos right.
I love working with people willing to sacrifice what it takes to get good photos. Most often this would include the bride and groom who are willing to leave their reception for a few minutes to go out at sunset and get some spectacular sunset photos.
They understand the difference between cheap and quality photography
I value clients who understand what makes a good photographer. They understand how much it costs a photographer to start a business and realize that photographers need to make a living. They look for quality. So in other words – they don’t expect to pay next to nothing for their photography services. They value photography and are willing to pay for it.
I love working with clients who return to me. I have had many clients who used me in the past and book me for a new event. That shows loyalty. That shows they love and appreciate my work. One example: a woman hired me to shoot her son’s senior photos, then hired me again for her daughter’s photos. Then she hired me to shoot her oldest daughter’s wedding. Great client!
It’s wonderful having loyal clients who are willing to come back to me when they have further photography needs.
