Twenty five-Photo restoration

I was asked to day to restore color to an old photograph. I noticed from an earlier post that I charge $45 per hour for editing. I will charge the same for photo restoration.

Eighteen-holidays

I had a lady contact me about a Christmas photoshoot. She would need me Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I told her no. I don’t work on Christmas. I said I would be able to help another time if she needed me. I don’t work any of the MAJOR holidays. If I have my kids, the answer is no as well.

I understand holidays are important times to remember but, holiday time is important to me too. Time with my family, especially with my kids, is more important than money. I can always do business on other days. Money is replaceable, time is not.

I encourage family time on holidays!

Seventeen-fees

My editing price has been decided. I charge $35 per hour for it. It’s an optional service that I offer. At the end of a photo session I will ask if you’d like your photos edited. If you say yes, then I will give you my price for editing. Again, I am per hour on the editing. The photo session fees will vary at my discretion. The only other fee that I charge for is travel. If it takes me 60 minutes to get to your location, there is a $30 fee.

Eleven-payment

I probably should post what types of payments I accept. I accept cash, Apple Pay, Zelle, Venmo, the Cash App, and PayPal. I don’t accept credit cards.

Two-love what you do

Today I’m at the park. It’s a windy day. The clouds are overcast. It’s still a beautiful day for pictures. I do like being outside.

I was searching the internet last night for inspirational quotes about finding your passion. I found a few good ones. Here’s a list of a few that I found….

Passion is the difference between having a job or having a career.

If you want to achieve greatness, stop asking for permission.

It’s the best feeling in the world getting paid to do what you love.

I would rather die from passion, than die from boredom.

The only way to do great work, is to love what you do.

Never work for money, work for your passion.

There’s no elevator to you success, you have to take the stairs.

One-how it all began

So where did the love for photography start? It all started when I had kids actually. I started with an iPhone. I used to capture my kids moments of them growing up. I was in charge of the memories. That’s still happening today. The love for photography grew after I bought my first DSLR. I love nature, I always have. I enjoy capturing the beauty of the outdoors. As I took more and more pictures, I thought about incorporating people in the photos than just things. I enrolled in school in the Fall of 2019. I have loved it ever since.

I’ve realized that time stops for no one. Photography allows you to capture the moments that go by so fast. Capturing moments is what I enjoy doing. Let me capture the memorable moments for you.
