To Shoot or Not To Shoot? Galveston Family Photographer

Whaa?? Yes I am back with more sneak peeks.

I lost count but I am so happy to cater to other amazing photographers. This beautiful family came down from Dallas for their beach session.

I remember when I first started shooting and called my self a photographer, it was a few years ago any who. I remember seeing a local photographer’s work and said to myself “I would love to book a session with her for my daughter.” The photographer didn’t offer digital packages like I do but she offered products, prints and such and hands down I was willing to spend big bucks  on products and digitals. I remember telling my husband “you will probably see a big transaction, in the fifteen hundreds so don’t freak out because it’s me.” I contacted the photographer and she turned me down, I remember her asking if I was a photographer I replied with a “yes” and she told me “sorry I don’t shoot other photographers” which seemed crazy to me. She didn’t want my business or my money or possibly thought I couldn’t afford her (which is fine). That’s when I told my self that the day another photographer sends me an email asking me to shoot her family I would automatically say yes. I don’t see shooting my peers as a threat I see it as a compliment. I absolutely love that other photographers like my style and are happy with the end result. Most of the time we have created friendships which in this business is priceless.

Do you shoot other photographers?

I’ll get off my soap box now.. haha
