Now that summer is here and the “busy” season has started for most pet photographers (everyone wants that beautiful “greeny-green” grass!). I have been investigating ways to save a little time but still provide the same high quality and personalized service.
On a side note, I told my mom about my personalized service (because she is driving from CA to bring her cat to me to photograph this June!) and she (or the PhD in her) suggested that I write *in detail* about all the little things I do for my customers. So here is a little “Tid-Bit” on my Personalized Service ~
#1 – Each client fills out a “Getting To Know You” form. It asks questions like, “Where did you come from?” (this is asking the dog – of course) to “Do you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert?” and “If you had to describe your personality in one color, what color would it be?”. I originally received the “Getting To Know You” form from Jamie at www.cowbelly.com when I went to her “pet photography workshop series” back in September 2008. I really want to get to know my clients so I can provide them with *nearly perfect* service.
Note On Listening~ Little things clients say about their dogs like, “Oh….did you see that? I love it when his tongue sticks out of his mouth!” Click, click, click goes my camera. If a client talks about how “regal” their dog is then I wait to capture those moments that *reflect* that feeling and again click, click, click goes my camera. When I am at a photo experience (BTW – I am tossing out the “session” word and replacing it with”experience” because it really is an “experience!”), all of my senses are *ON* especially listening….listening to the owner and especially the dog or cat. They are *on stage* and I want them to feel comfortable enough for them to “be themselves” around me. I only have 1 or 2 hours with them so being alert (picture the little alert ears of a Jack Russell!) to the situation, owners and furry customers is the utmost priority during a photo “experience”.
Okay – back to the main point of this post was to announce my ONLINE BOOKING that is now available: http://jaimerowephotography.bookmonline.com/schedules (wild cheering!)
