In the photography industry, the majority of its owners and business are considered freelancer or self-employed. This is because these businesses are generally run by one person, with zero to a handful of employees to assist them. in order to create revenue and make a living. Regardless of how big or small the business is, the owner is ultimately going to face challenges ahead.
In order to move forward succeed, every business needs a good plan and budget, also know as a capital investment. As an owner of a photography studio, I understand how difficult it can be for a photographer to afford both a photography studio space and own the industry's top-tier studio speed lighting at the same time.
TAKE YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY TO NEXT LEVEL
Novice photographers usually own inexpensive camera. They take picture of their families and friends for fun or sometimes, as a hobby. In term of photography lighting, when the shoot, the novice photographer will usually rely on the automatic built-in speed light on their camera or the ambient and natural lighting available. More often than not, their photos will be in poor image quality. But who cares, right? The pictures are personal and are not going to be seen by the public or sold for profit. However, if the novice photographer wants to turn hobby into career, renting a photography studio is a great place to start.
Part-time, professional photographers usually work with a small budget on their own photo shoot. The majority of them cannot afford to sign a lease for a large, commercial space or own a private photography studio. In most case, they usually have to shoot photos that are dependent on the location and lighting available at the time. Without only a minimum budget, this may also mean they are only able to rely on minimum-budget studio lighting and modifiers, an on-camera speed light, or solely on ambient light, which may cause them to struggle with poor lighting conditions within the location's environment. These factors may produce poor quality in the final images, which could upset clients and result in a loss of business.
Full-time, professional photographers can usually afford to own photography studio and hire employees to work for them. One slight disadvantage may be the photography studio is generally a fixed location that may be too small a accommodate a full production photo shoot. This is when they will usually need to rent a different location or studio the will provide ample space and a variety of set-up.
