Spencer,

Last time you did not give me an estimate becuase I am based in in Europe. Just pretend I am in the US

Thanks a lot!


Well an estimate is just a guess, so if you feel like your clients should guess, then you've accomplished that.

Nice site, very simple and minimal. I'd say you could book starting rates between $2000-3000 based on presentation.

$5000-7000.

I don't see a phone number, or even where you are located. Could be Philly, could be Jackson Hole, or even England. Just an observation.

Thanks


Just a comment on design: multiple font sizes, thicknesses and colors seems very distracting to the eyes (services page).

With no indication of price, I'm left with basing it on presentation. It feels very traditional. $1500-2500.

Thanks for the tips on phone number and location, Carolyn (wife and photographers partner) has been reminding me to add it to the bottom of every page. Pricing was on par for the range we tend to book in. Thanks!

I like the word "rates". I don't like "typical" investment. $2500-4500.

I think your pricing page (how you present it, the words you use) makes you look more amateur than your portfolio does. The opening slides showed some good posing and portraits, and made me think you'd be more expensive than what your pricing shows.

But it sounds like I can hire you for $100 and get ALL the images for $200. I think you are selling yourself VERY short and could be earning 10x that amount.


Thanks. Bumbling my way through this and that helps.

$2000-3000. You have a powerful intro and quality to the presentation. I'm not a huge fan of music, but you are the first one today I saw use music, and I think it works well.

I think you are under priced

Site nitpick - you only have one gallery for weddings and/or families. Instead of making me hover, then move and click, is there a way to just have me click and it opens the gallery?

Weddings - $2000-2400. Is all you sell just hourly coverage?
Seniors - $100 max

I think you are seriously, seriously limiting your potential. The seniors, man, if I do the math, you're charging like $33 an hour. After taxes you're not making much. I think seniors can and will easily pay north of $1000, easily.

Is there a way to advance photos when you first land on the site? It's just static, show me more

Your technical quality is exceptional, so I think your prices are low

Weddings - $2000-2800
Portraits - $200-500

Holy wall of text batman! I think you should condense the text, a lot. You also have like 8 options, and this can feel overwhelming to a consumer.

Also, when I see you have a cheaper weekday rate than your standard wedding, that shows me your value isn't in your photographic ability or any skill you possess, just your availability. I find it weird.

I'd say reduce the amount of packages, and your pricing should also have a greater range IMO. Starting from $1250 and capping at $1950, I think you should have a higher highest package. When you start with big lists and lots of texts, all accompanied by a number, the natural thing for people to do is start to compare the packages and see whats different. Because its small, and there is SO much to read, I feel fatigued just looking at it all.
