Description

One of the most frequent question I see other photographers asking is "how much should I charge for my services or prints?" Pricing your photography can be tricky, no matter what genre of photography you are engaged with. As such, it was awesome to have a conversation with this week's guest on Episode 305 of the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen podcast.

This week I had a blast speaking with Walid Azami. Walid is a photographer and commercial director living in Los Angeles and originally from Kabul, Afghanistan. He photographs celebrities, commercial products, and a lot more while offering his services as a coach and mentor to other photographers relating to business practices and pricing.


On this week's episode, we discuss:
Similarities between landscape photography and other genres as it relates to pricing and monetization.
The biggest mistakes photographers make in relation to pricing their photography.
Determining when monetization is worth pursuing.
Strategies for pricing your artwork and services.
Dealing with customers that low-ball you.
How to differentiate yourself as a photographer in the crowded marketplace we find ourselves in.
Advice for how to start thinking monetization of your work.
And a lot more!
