High Volume Headshots Part II - School Portraits, Corporate, Performing Artists.

Last year I published a video on my basic set up for high-volume headshot photography. In this follow up, I go a little deeper and talk about the (very) basic proposal/contract that I use, cases and how I pack my gear, and set up tips for getting good photos. Got questions? Post a comment, there may be a Part III coming next year!

So refreshing to see a real photographer on here, talking gear, problems, and how to do what and what you need! So many get caught up in all this other garbage. Thanks for keeping it real!

[cechernandez]

Would love to see a video about the post production part where you delivery galleries and set up the purchase of prints for the families. Great videos

OMG - the Fritos! That alone makes you my official volume photography guru!

Good evening, fellow Atlanta Photographer. It is refreshing to know there is an Atlanta Photographer who shares in the type of photography that I would like to get into. Though I've only seen pt. 2; it was very helpful and I will be looking at part 1. Thank you and please keep up the great work you do.

Thank you for sharing all your information. I have recently been sent a proposal from a charter school and your video has helped my stress and self confidence. I appreciate you

[ricardoadderley]

Thank you so much for your in-depth share. This has been a Swiss army knife for me over the last two years. I've finally got the gear where i need it to be, the workflow on point, and my shoots have been a blast, i even pack a few chips in my bag. Thank you so much for the insight and for being so open with this vast amount of knowledge.

Hello Matt,
you're doing a really great job, thank you for all of this very detailed information.
It will be great if you can create a video about calculation of the price - setup cost, cost per person etc.

[tmewborn]

Thank You, I am an old Man, and do not do this type of Work. I do admire the work You do to capture photos like this especially School Children.

[wildbluefab]

You are refreshing, delightful, informative, and awesome to watch and learn from. Thank you!

[liauchungren]

[staciesmith]

Wow, your videos are great! So helpful! Love the Fritos in the camera bag, lol.

Really great video covering things that I don’t regularly consider - but are super important. Thank you for sharing the details!

[Emulives]

I'm a headshot photographer (in NYC, doing mostly actors) thinking of doing more volume work like this and I found this video to be incredibly helpful! Good stuff. I hope Fritos sponsors you. 😆

[jamesdegrandis]

Those are the Fritos he stole from the snack machine in the first video! (Assistant was an accomplice apparently.)

[malexus]

thank you so much, thanks from China, it's really useful for me to learn the method for school photography

[chrismcphee]

I am have the same backdrop stand kit. Cheap but it works. Love that bag. I gotta get one.

[natestarot]

This makes me think of all the times I had my photo taken. I've been watching a lot of vids about portrait photography, etc. If I were to ever do this, it would be a long way from now. I'm pretty new to photography. Thanks for sharing how you do this! 🌟Fritos are pretty awesome.

I wouldn't stuff crisps into a camera bag, even tho that protactic is quite sturdy :)
