Met With a Potential Client

Well I just finished my first consultation with a potential client. She was referred to me through the Boettcher Mansion program that I signed up with. She came over to our house, which Jess and I turned into a mini gallery. The meeting lasted about an hour, and I thought it went really well. She really liked the albums, and pictures I showed, and she loved the album of Mike and Carly's that is online. She said that she is meeting with a few other photographers and she would let me know in a few weeks. The wedding is June 1st, at the Boettcher Mansion, which is going to be a really incredible place to get married.

I felt very comfortable talking about my prices, myself, and everything else that I offered. It is good for me to meet with potential clients and start working on my "sales" pitch. Even if she doesn't book with me it was a great learning experience, although I feel pretty confident. Of course most discerning people will probably notice that I have only shot a few weddings, although she didn't ask about my experience (which is probably a positive thing.) So all in all things went very well, and I will hope for a positive outcome. Talk to you soon.
