When you're a keen photographer and you have the

desire to spend your working life doing something

you enjoy such as photography, it would be a

shame if you didn't pursue it further wouldn't it?

You really don't have to join an institution or pay

thousands of dollars to get started either. You

simply need the passion to learn and persist. Most

great photographers who rely on their trade to

survive don't even know they have these traits

because they love what they do and they simply

can't stop.

It's true that there is wealth to be made in

photography and I'm not going to down play that or

make a pitch to the opposite because in every

case, it's been up to the individual. Meaning - it

depends on what mode of photography they

choose, how much time they put into the business,

do they have a commercial bent, are they more

artistic than usual etc. All these points come into

play when success in a photography business or

studio is questioned.

I don't want to create any false hopes by that last

paragraph because success will require some hard

work, tolerance and patience. These next thirty

tips should help you along the way. There is more

detail available on this subject matter at the link at

the bottom of this page.

Where can I obtain information on building a

photography business?

Page 5: Works great for any photography

1. Always do some extensive research before

starting out a career with your own photography

business so that you understand the pros and cons

involved. Some ideas include subscribing to a good

magazine related to the photographic industry such

as Professional Photographer, Camera Arts and

Photo District News. Besides that, the internet is

the biggest source of information and can provide

you with a plethora of career opportunities or even

more information on starting a photography

business.

At which level do you want to start your

photography business?

2. This is the trickiest question that a person

interested in starting a business encounters. It is

very important to decide what kind of photography

business you want so that the relevant

requirements and (sometimes) finance can be

muscled up.

When is the best time to start a fully-fledged

photography business?

3. After deciding on what you need and any extra

necessary equipment that is needed to set up the

basic infrastructure, you will need to consider

carefully your main tool - the camera, be it digital

or film. You must also consider carefully a reliable,

high-quality PC and good relevant software to

manipulate your photographs with special effects.

Page 6: Works great for any photography

If the business is being undertaken on a massive

scale then maybe a developing lab needs to be

planned and established.

o What kind of venues will yield real income to your

business?

4. A newly established business in photography

requires an assured location or a beat (working

locally), as in journalism. For instance, wedding

photography, sports related photography or

developmental photography. Once established,

business can also be diversified into many more

fields.

o Building a photography portfolio

5. It is always important to compile a good portfolio

as far as photography is concerned. A portfolio

must contain a collection of pertinent photographic

work that you believe to be impressive. Make sure

that photographs are unusual in character and are

from diverse fields. Your portfolio must be able to

impress the client in the very first meeting.

6. Don't keep all the photographs that you have in

your possession. Only keep your best work in the

folder so that you don't embarrass yourself or find

yourself having to explain photographs that aren't

relevant.

7. Showcase spontaneous photos that you believe

are of good quality. You'd be surprised how many

Page 7: Works great for any photography

people respond favorably to peoples expressions

when they are good shots.

Basic apparatus required

8. A canvas background of at minimum 7-9 foot and

the background colors should be either navy or

white as minimum requirements to start with; a

well-branded studio lights system such as that of

Norman & Speedtron; certified picture

manipulation software such as Photoshop, Corel

Paint Shop, etc.

Is there a need for establishing a makeup studio as

part of your photo studio?

9. Makeup and photography often go hand in hand.

Wherever makeup is involved it is often referred to

as trick photography because makeup is capable of

completely transforming an individual's personality,

and sometimes relevance to a product in the case

of advertising photography.

What kind of photo-editing software available in the

market?

10. Photo-editing software through which special

effects and complete changes to a photo are

possible and can also often save the need for a re

shoot.

11. Some of the photo-editing software that are

popular includes Photoshop CS; Photoshop Light

Page 8: Works great for any photography

room, iPhoto, i View Multimedia, MediaPro,

ACDSee, Corel and Picasa.

Is storage and treatment of photographs crucial in

building photography business?

12. Never adopt laxity while handling or archiving

photographs. You will regret it later. Storage and

access efficiency will either improve or frustrate

your working environment. Often older photos

become more valuable with time.

How can be photographs be preserved easily apart

from the conventional method?

13. Today's cameras are highly versatile and will

allow downloads and transfers from highly

surprising devices including your mobile but

pictures can also be stored on a CD's, USB's and

DVD's too.

o Choosing a Camera

14. Stick to w ell known brand. The level of mega

pixel offered and quality of the zooming facility

must be looked into carefully. I have my favorites

but there are many equally as good as mine.

15. Most of the cameras are compatible with

computers and printers and moreover, because we

now use memory sticks, we are truly free to

operate unencumbered.

Page 9: Works great for any photography

o What kind of a website does a person need to

have?

16. Your collection of photographs must be

properly classified under different categories.

Visual appearance of your website will do wonders

for your business so take consider setting up one

with semi automation where the maintenance and

hard work is done for you like photostockplus.

17. Remember to constantly upgrade and maintain

your website so that each time people come across

your website, they will find fine something new and

interesting.

o Copyright of your photographs

18. Copyright is the right protects the person who

owns or who took the photographs. A wise

exercise if you are looking to use some stock

houses for commercial purposes.

o Why is a business card helpful?

19. In every business, visiting cards are helpful. It

is extremely useful in for people to contact you

after your first meeting. It must contain all your

contact details. If you're a photographer, a clever

impressive graphic or a picture of yourself with

your equipment is best. Your contact number or

email must be easy to read. I have seen cards that

have large names and pictures and the phone

numbers are so small they are difficult to read.

Page 10: Works great for any photography

Ridiculous! Make your phone number the largest

thing on the card - that's what most people will use

it for.

o Which things must be kept in mind while you plan

to build a wedding photography business?

20. Wedding Photography is almost another art

unto itself. There are many things to remember for

a truly successful wedding shoot. I have prepared

another article to deal with this in more detail and

it's all about --Wedding Photography. --

o Advantage of assignment photography

21. Assignment photography is that branch of

photography where a person is engaged or

consigned to capture shots of something

impressive and extraordinary, such as in the case

of advertising or portrait photography; this can

provide you a stable income after you've learned

the ropes.

o Advantage of stock photography

22. Stock photography is that branch of

photography where there is an accumulated stock

of photographs which can be sold to interested

buyers, designers, adverting agencies etc. This can

be a slow haul but if your pictures are well thought

out, it can be the source of an ongoing income. --My

favorite is istockphotos--.

Page 11: Works great for any photography

o Other places where you can sell your

photographic collection?

23. Art shows are the perfect platform from where

your creativity and work will be really appreciated

because at such places you will find some niche

customers that have a sharp eye for real talent.

Such places have been known to bring instant

fame.

24. Winter Park Art Show at Orlando, Oklahoma

City Festival of the Arts, Old Town Art Show;

Chicago, Boston Mills Art Show; Peninsula, Ohio,

Similar art shows are held in different parts of the

world and they are easy to find on the net. Simply

do a Google search for "photography art show" and

the name of the country you are in after adding the

plus sign like this; "photography art show"+

Sweden

o Prices to be charged from the clients

25. In the initial stages of your business, don't try

to charge exorbitant amounts otherwise it will give

the wrong impression and you will perhaps lose a

valuable long term customer. Tread slowly. Ring

other photographers and research. Five phone calls

should do it.

Marketing your photography business

26. You must try to market your work at relevant

places. Photographs can also be published over the

Page 12: Works great for any photography

internet. Publication over the internet will increase

customer enquiry. Don't forget to search for

suitable local markets and get the snaps printed in

a local journal or newspaper and always display

your contact number prominently - always!

27. Establishing and popularizing a business is a

tough call but if you adopt a proper marketing

strategy. Today, Advertising is one of the most

popular mediums of promoting. Ads can be placed

on websites, online telephone directories,

newspapers and magazines, etc. Research the

right mediums before you rush in. Sometimes good

deals get in the way of recognizing the right

advertising vehicle.

28. You can develop a website of your own to

effectively promote your photography business but

one thing that must be kept in mind is never forget

to include a testimonial section and gauge the

response of the people visiting the website. Let

them make comments.

o Career prospects in photo journalism

29. Individuals interested in setting up a

photography business can begin their career by

becoming a photo journalist. Appealing and unusual

photographs can be supplied to newspapers,

magazines, websites and the photography business

is booming to such an extent that even

international media organizations will offer you

Page 13: Works great for any photography

good money in return for rare and high-quality

photographs.

30. Mainstream photographers are engaged in TV,

parcels and copy services, newspapers, magazines

and sketch photography. There are many more jobs

also related to photography than there ever was

previously and because of the diversity and

flexibility of digital photography, more respect has

been attached to this profession. Some of the

avenues in photography apart from business are

Journalism, Graphic arts, Advertising, DTP jobs,

Publications and Motion Picture creation.
