This is me
in all my glory, no facial retouching..you can see every pore and scar.
It's weird to not get many views and stuff anymore...but I guess I deserve it. I need to come back with a bang, seriously sometime soon.
If anybody looks at this that didn't see my previous upload I had a few questions.
I posted this on my facebook ( www.facebook.com/dylanmurphyphotography ) but I'll post it here too.
Looks like I'll have extra time on my hands since my part time job hours have been getting cut. Need to figure out some business things that have been long overdue...like figuring out some basic packages and prices for more traditional shoots. What do you all think is the most important thing when booking a photographer? Quality? Their style? Price? I'm sure it's a combination of these things...But can the average person differentiate these things when comparing or are most people likely to skip to price and how many images they are getting?
and do people prefer a-la-carte or package options for ordering prints?..No, I am not giving away high res images on cd's with releases, I'm just not going there haha. I have good reasons..unless it's for a commercial project, then I do that sometimes. Low res I am willing though so people have them for facebook and whatnot, but not for printing.
I don't get very many people contacting me for things, but I know people think I do good stuff and I've been in local shows and stuff. I feel like maybe since I don't show prices for anything that people just pass me up...or that a lot of my portfolio isn't more traditional? I come up in the top search results in my area for my website ( www.dylanmurphy.net )
Anyone got any ideas or input?
I would love to do more commercial/editorial stuff but there's just no market in my immediate area for that kind of stuff from what I've seen anyway.
