Class of 2011 Senior Portraits Specials

by Paul Manoian on September 1, 2010

I can’t believe summer is officially over and school is back in already. But, I’m really excited because it means senior portraits season is here! As a professional senior pictures photographer, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a ton of awesome Class of 2011 high school seniors this year already. From senior pictures with horses in June to senior pictures in the winter snow back in February, we all had a blast and captured memories that will last a lifetime!

Most Important Criteria When Selecting a Photographer?

by Paul Manoian on August 12, 2010

Detroit Photographer

Detroit Photographer

As a professional photographer, I am regularly evaluating my clients’ needs and determining where my attention should be focused to provide the best customer experience in the industry that my clients have come to expect.

To that end, I wrote an article last year on what to consider when selecting a photographer based on feedback I have personally received.

Now, it’s your turn! What is most important to you when considering a professional photographer? What are the top traits you look for when referring someone to friends and family?

NOTE: If you would like to see something else added to the list, please leave a comment below and I’ll let you know when I have added it.

What are your Top 3 considerations when selecting a professional photographer?

They have a great personality and we get along
They have a large portfolio with many different examples
They are responsive and quickly answer calls/email
They will listen to my ideas and offer suggestions
They consistently deliver high quality
They deliver prints the next day
They have a style that I absolutely love
They have a top notch reputation and come highly recommended
They will work on-location at a my favorite spot
They have a studio
Their price and price alone ... I'm looking for a "deal"!
