The Meaningful Portrait Experience
Are you ready to elevate your client experience, increase your profits, and get your life back from behind the computer?
Join PPLA on Saturday, July 18th for a comprehensive, business-changing Member-to-Member event: The Meaningful Portrait Experience. At this event, we will walk you through the complete portrait process, from the very first client inquiry to the delivery of finished artwork.
This class is about creating portraits with purpose, serving your clients well, and building a business that values both your time and your artistry!
What You Will Experience & Learn:
-
Hands-On Portfolio Building: We will have a live model on-site for shooting and portfolio-building opportunities, allowing you to practice creating a meaningful portrait in real-time!
-
The Meaningful Consultation: Learn how to discover your client's story, build excitement, and begin the sales process before the session even starts.
-
The Authentic Session: Discover how to build immense trust, read personalities, and direct your subjects without over-posing them.
-
Trusting Your Instincts: You will learn how to recognize fleeting moments of genuine emotion and—just as importantly—know exactly when to stop shooting so you don't degrade your own skill.
-
Profitable Sales & Workflow: We will cover the in-person sales appointment, helping clients confidently choose physical artwork for their walls and albums without feeling pressured.
-
Getting Your Time Back: Identify where photographers waste hours and learn simple workflow changes that increase both your profitability and your quality of life.
Every decision in your business should support either the client experience or the studio's profitability—ideally both.
We will break for lunch at 12:00 PM and wrap up the afternoon with an open Q&A and discussion.
