Recognizing that technical ability and studio space are only the initial components of a portrait photography business, this guide to building a thriving portrait studio focuses on successful customer service, networking, diversification, and business management strategies. From setting long- and short-term goals for a business to creating an elegant studio atmosphere that impresses clients (while respecting the budget), this handbook breaks down each minute consideration in the growth of a successful business. Smart managerial decisions regarding portrait-pricing strategies, employee training, telephone skills, positive relationships with suppliers, and responsible delegation of duties are complemented by practical advice on networking within a community, creating demand for high-quality portraiture, and diversifying clientele by catering to the unique needs of each client subset.
