EVENT DETAILS:
Extra Day for Extra Pay - Post-Convention Class with William Branson III
Let me be your guide . . .
Whether you are brand new to portraiture or an advanced artist, this program is for you!
If you are thinking of adding fine portraiture to your business model and earning the money you deserve, why not speed up the process? I can save you years of frustration! Over the years, I have trained hundreds of artists and saved them many years of experimentation. This program will give you the confidence you need to market and create fine art portraiture that will help you earn the income you deserve and provide for you and your family.
The world of photography has changed drastically over the last 20 years. Digital has brought photography to the masses and removed the “mystique” from our profession. Most photographers today compete against each other with price as their only difference because everyone is offering and doing the same thing. Wouldn’t it be great to be different from the photographer down the street and be able to offer something that only you can provide? Imagine the business you could generate!
In this program you will learn how I transformed my high-volume wedding and portrait studio to a low volume portrait studio that generates sales from $5,000 to $20,000 and more. In addition to learning my posing techniques, I will also show you my lighting process along with how I interact with the client. With these techniques, you will be able to walk into any situation and create beautiful portraits whether in the studio or on location. I will also guide you on: how to find your niche, studio design, and marketing. When you walk out of this program, you will be on your way to speeding up the process of earning the money you deserve!
Don't have a studio? No problem . . . neither do I !!!
Just launching your business? No problem! I will help and guide you to cut your 5 year plan in half!
