This is something that has got me thinking.
Many people say that you should be marketing to the brides who will spend $5000 for wedding photography. That it\'s damn near impossible to make a living shooting weddings for less than $3500. Many people also preach that we should all be pricing our services much, much higher otherwise we\'re in danger of polluting the industry. People also say that with a little work, you can go from charging $2000 a wedding to charging $5000 a wedding.
Yet, nobody has every said exactly how does one go about doing this? We\'re all eager to share our knowledge about cameras, lights, etc. but if the industry would benefit by all of use charging at least $3500 per wedding, why isn\'t the knowledge of how to do so being bantered about?
Sure I understand that people want to protect their turf but if everyone starting charging more, would not everyones business benefit?
Food for thought.
The last time hat I byatched about the same thing, we ended up losing TRR for months.
