Jerry Metellus
A. Introduction
a. The three things I learned from Jerry Metellus.
i. One: Price marketing depends on a lot of things in photography.
ii. Two: Don’t come in with an ego or an attitude. Also don’t be attached or desperate.
iii. Three: Lighting is very dependable on all events, especially architecture.
B. One: Price marketing depends on a lot of things in photography. Price depends on what your client wants and what you agreed to shoot your client in. For example, if you are shooting a family photo and they want to look exactly like this magazine photo and that is what you agreed to shoot them in that is the challenge you decided to take. Price depends on what you are shooting in, hotel, broken down building, etc. Price depends on what the client wants to look like. What the photographer can do is research about prices from other photographers. So price ranges with in different situations.
C. Two: Don’t come in with an ego or an attitude. Also don’t be attached or desperate. When it comes to Jerry, he doesn’t want to shoot anyone who has an ego or an attitude. So photographers so deserve to work with what you can handle and have some respect and dignity to it. Don’t be attached to your work and don’t be desperate for work. For example, you are a Sudan and somebody doesn’t want you then you don’t try to get that person. You are selling the car; sell it to someone who wants it. Also don’t be desperate because then you break the market for selling yourself so low. So don’t have an ego, but be competitive enough that clients know your worth it.
D. Three: Lighting is very dependable on all events, especially architecture. Lighting depends on seasons, the way the structure edges come out along with the colors. This is the way your practice your lighting for architecture to make texture come out or smoothness from the table or couch. So lighting is different in any situation.
