Knowing how to plan a photoshoot is the difference between an efficient, productive shoot day and a disorganized mess. First, begin by making a shot list so you won't forget anything important in the heat of the moment. Making a shot list will also help you flesh out your creative ideas for the photoshoot. With this in mind, you can move on to securing the perfect local photoshoot location. Take note of any lighting considerations. If you're shooting outdoors with natural light, what time of day should you shoot? If you're shooting indoors, what lighting equipment will you need? If you have a clear and cohesive plan of action, you'll find that the photoshoot is much more fun, and the photos will be much better!
Finding photoshoot locations begins with searching available local photoshoot locations right here on Peerspace. From hidden rooftops to private studio spaces, odds are good that there are spaces you don't know about right in your own backyard. Next, we recommend checking out the social media accounts of other local photographers to see what locations they're frequently tagging. Make sure you also search on your search engine of choice. One of the best ways of all, however, is just exploring your city. Check out parts of town you normally wouldn't. If you keep an eye out and get into the habit of seeing the world with a photographer's eyes, you'll find awesome photoshoot locations all around you.
Preparing for a photoshoot is all about having a plan. First, make sure you're on the same page as your client in terms of the shoot's objectives and deliverables. Next, take inventory of what's going to be needed. Secure your perfect photoshoot location. Make a shot list! Things can get hectic on the day of a shoot, so shot lists are invaluable tools for professional photographers. Make an inventory of all the equipment and props you'll need, and check that batteries are charged and everything's packed to transport to the shoot location. Some photographers find it helpful to make a photoshoot checklist.
Knowing how much to charge for a photoshoot is a challenge for most new photographers, and there's no single answer. Survey the photographers in your area to find out what the going rate is for the type of photography you're doing. Always factor in your own costs, both in terms of ongoing costs (i.e. insurance, software licenses, etc.) and shoot-specific costs (like renting equipment or studio space.) You should also consider whether to charge an hourly rate, a per-image charge, or a flat fee for the photoshoot. Each method has advantages and disadvantages.
