“A photoshoot!? in this climate!?” - How to afford your dream shoot on a budget
I’m well aware of how tight finances are for everyone at the moment, every single person I talk to has had to cut back, become more mindful of their spending, and is generally anxious about the future.
But when times are hard, we still want to find a way to treat ourselves, because we damn well deserve nice things!
Photoshoots are no exception, it’s an indulgence (that helps boost your confidence, help you on your self love journey, and makes you feel totally unstoppable). But I know so many of you would absolutely love to still have a photoshoot, to get empowered and feel like the queen you are, so here’s my top 3 tips to make that dream photoshoot a reality.
1. Put a little away each week
Each week, commit to putting some spare cash away. This could be in the physical form of a jar, giving a more tangible feeling to the money you’re putting away, or digitally by setting up a savings account to keep popping money into. Consider it your “fun-fund”.
Each week, pop a set amount in, or however much you can spare. If you’re self employed, designate a set percentage of each payment you get to go into it. If you’re employed, you can designate a specific amount to go in. You could even pop any money you save from not spending on other things into there - the pennies really do begin to add up!
2. Take advantage of the bespoke payment plans on offer
If option one feels too risky (as in, you’re likely to impulse spend all that hard saved cash), then this might be a better option. For every single photoshoot package, I offer bespoke payment plans with 0% interest for up to 12 months of payments.
Those payments, when stretched over several months, become much more manageable and make affording that dream shoot the easiest thing in the world.
When booking your shoot, simply check the box that says you’ll need a payment plan, and I’ll get in touch to create a plan that works best for you.
3. Strong Queens Club
For those who want to be super savers and get even more for their money, then there’s Strong Queens Club. This incredible shoot subscription gives you either 1, 2, or 3 shoots per year (depending on your preference), with 5 digital images included in each tier, with a minimum saving of £85 per year (that number goes up considerably for 2 - 3 shoots per year) on your photoshoot experience.
SQC is also a great way for me to get to know you a little more each time we shoot together, plus you get discounts on any wall art products (This discount isn’t available to any of my other clients!) - what’s not to love? Find out more here.
I hope this has gotten your excited about how you can make your empowering shoot experience a reality - times may be hard but we can still have beautiful experiences which lift us up and make us feel amazing.
