Budget for Successful Photography in 2009

Now is the time to think about your budget and scheduling for 2009. Professional photography of your best projects is an asset to your upcoming business marketing. Structure your budget to allow for complete coverage of your most important projects while saving enough to record your other projects. Try to photograph when the project is fresh, access is more easily obtainable and the subject is looking new. Consider contacting other interested parties to contract with the photographer for shared use, the savings to each party can be significant.

Photographing in New England's winter

Winter in New England is typically a tough time to photograph exteriors. Snow banks, mud, leafless trees and brown grass challenge the views. Why not photograph the interiors and room details that are now ready as rooms can be filled with beautiful reflected sun light. Save those exteriors for Spring when the weather is better and fall plantings have taken hold. Or take the time to photograph those projects designed in warmer regions of the country.

Then again if your project is an igloo.....it's time to shoot!
