Great video! I really like how you talked technical about the shoot and also covered what to charge. Most photographers don’t talk about what they charged for the shoot! Keep up the great work JP!

Lot's of useful info here sir. I shoot a LOT of medical, lawyer, "professional genre" headshots. This video is literally my life, LOL. CANT underestimate the need for this segment of photography given the explosion of the work-from-home types as well. Keep on clickin'!

Thanks. Can't say enough about the importance of that small step stool you mentioned. It's very, very valuable to stand just a bit higher than your subject, and shoot ever so slightly down, so the under-chin area is minimized. Without it, clients will very frequently express mild to stronger concern about how their under-chin area looks. People with a few too many pounds, people with skin that doesn't look college-age anymore ;-) and just about everyone will benefit from this tiny little angle increase.

Love this! I have to take corporate headshots all the time for my work so it's nice to see I'm getting similar results! Could you do a video about corporate portraits with environmental backgrounds? Maybe outside and inside? I might just be limited by my glass, but I can never get a nice "creamy" depth of field unless I luck up on a super long hallway or real open work space.

great stuff - i bounce between heaadshots/portraits/creative/concept shoots for models, actors, musicians, performers and have only done a very few corporate or business shots - would like to get more of that business but cold calling is not my thing so I will give advertising a try see if can get something!

Great video, lots of good tips. I noticed was that the camera was above the subject's eye level, and I usually try not to shoot "down" at the subject. Also - did you raise or lower the camera to correspond with the subject? Thanks!
@TheSlantedLens
@TheSlantedLens 3 года назад
The rule of thumb for me is to be slightly above the eyes and yes I raised it up to do that.

Jay, so helpful. What do you ask to determine whether you will shoot vertical or landscape frames? I noticed your examples are all vertical. Thanks for sharing this, love the foldable wagon and foldable stepstool tips!

@TheSlantedLens

The assistant and makeup are additional. And it depends on what your local market will bear.

@TheSlantedLens

That really does depend on where you live. It would be helpful if you could enquire around to local photographers in your area. The higher cost of living the more people need to charge.

How many photos would you submit per person generally? Just the one? I have not gotten to the point of full scale paid gigs yet.
@TheSlantedLens
@TheSlantedLens 3 года назад
We usually share a gallery with the client of about a dozen images per person and then they select the image or images that they want to have retouched. Some of our clients who do a lot of promotion with the images want upwards to 30-40 images that they can look through and choose.
@KenyattaDavisPhotography
@KenyattaDavisPhotography Год назад
Can you explain the difference in price you charge for the headshots $2500-$3000 and the full day rate of $2000-$2500
@TheSlantedLens
@TheSlantedLens Год назад
If I am charging a rate of $2500 - $3000 that is for a full day.

What *SPECIFIC* rights does the client get and for how long?
@TheSlantedLens
@TheSlantedLens 3 года назад
You have to work that out with them. But headshots are not images that you can sell in any other way so maintaining the rights doesn't make as much sense here.
