- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Working with a customer is an important collaboration, and I follow a structured process to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience. Here is my typical process for working with a customer: Initial Consultation: We start with an initial consultation, either in person, over the phone, or via email. During this discussion, I listen attentively to the customer's vision, requirements, and expectations. This helps me understand their unique needs and allows me to provide personalized recommendations. Proposal and Agreement: Based on the information gathered during the consultation, I prepare a detailed proposal that outlines the services, pricing, and any additional options discussed. Once the customer agrees to proceed, we formalize our agreement through a contract that protects both parties' interests. Pre-shoot Planning: Depending on the type of photography service, I work closely with the customer to plan the shoot. For weddings, we discuss the schedule, locations, and any specific shots they desire. For events or portrait sessions, we coordinate logistics, outfits, and desired themes. This planning phase ensures that we are fully prepared and on the same page. The Photoshoot: On the scheduled day, I arrive punctually and well-prepared to capture the moments. I maintain a professional yet friendly approach, making sure the customer feels comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. I pay attention to details and strive to capture the essence and emotions that make each moment special. Post-processing and Editing: After the photoshoot, I carefully curate and select the best images. I then engage in professional post-processing and editing to enhance the images, ensuring the highest quality and artistic vision. This process includes color correction, exposure adjustments, retouching, and any requested special effects. Delivery of Final Products: Once the editing is complete, I deliver the final products to the customer. This can include high-resolution digital files, prints, albums, or any other agreed-upon deliverables. I ensure a prompt and efficient delivery process, keeping the customer informed throughout. Client Satisfaction and Feedback: Customer satisfaction is of utmost importance to me. I encourage customers to provide feedback on their experience and the final products received. I take their input seriously and strive to continuously improve my services based on their feedback. Throughout the entire process, I maintain open and clear communication with the customer, keeping them updated on progress and addressing any questions or concerns they may have. I aim to create a positive and collaborative working relationship to ensure their expectations are not just met but exceeded.
