How to open a children's photography shop

Convenient transportation and clean surrounding environment should be the first choice. Children's photo studio should not be selected in downtown area, and the area should not be too large. It is better to operate in a small and broad way. It is also important to give a good name to the children's photo studio. It is easy for adults and children to remember the decoration inside and outside the store: the decoration of children's photo studio must highlight the children's sense of interest and cartoon form, and it is not suitable for excessive decoration.

Equipment selection and configuration:

1. Camera: Canon 300d (about 5000), Fuji S2 (about12000) and Nikon D70s (about12000) can be selected.

2. Lens: 35- 135mm and 28- 135mm lenses are preferred, which are suitable for studios with a film length of 5.5m.. Secondly, you can choose 35- 105mm and 28- 105mm lenses, which are suitable for studios with a length less than 5m.

3. Lighting: four studio lights with 300 indicators can be selected, which can be adjusted to the required indicators within 0.5-0.7 seconds, and can be forced to light up when all of them are not adjusted. In addition, two 60×90mm soft light boxes (one for the main light and one for the auxiliary light) are needed. It is best to use sky slide rail or strange hand boom for lighting boom.

4. Selection of background, clothes and props: You can choose some monochrome backgrounds and some pattern backgrounds that can highlight the characteristics of our store. You can choose clothes and props at will, but don't live too much (otherwise, parents will feel like taking pictures with a stupid camera in their daily lives, which will affect their later consumption).

Staffing: Generally, small and medium-sized children's photo studios need the following positions: store receptionist, photographer, tour guide, digital artist and store manager. It is very important for all personnel to have relevant work experience or receive professional training before taking up their posts.

If you run a small portrait studio, for example, my main business is taking pictures of others, what kind of digital camera is suitable? Just buy a high-quality small digital camera and this problem will be solved. 3 million pixels is enough. What about 5 million pixels? The quality will be better. Isn't it just taking a picture? That's enough. However, what camera is best for us to output more large-format and high-quality portrait photos? Now I'd like to recommend a single-lens reflex digital camera for you. Single-lens reflex digital camera, because its sensor area is relatively large, and the pixel area is relatively large, the output photos can be more beautiful and the quality will be better. The price of this Canon EOS300D in my hand, even this lens has dropped to 1000 yuan. 1000 yuan to 20000 yuan, you can have more choices. For example, Canon's EOS 10D is also a new product this year. There are Nikon's D 100, like Sigma's SD9, and Olympus's E 1 which just went on the market this fall.

This camera is very suitable for small and medium-sized photo studios to take portrait photos. The price is not too high.

Second, changing lenses saves money.

Many cameras, your original series of lenses can still be used on such digital cameras. Like Canon EOS 10D, as long as you have Canon EF series lenses in your hand, they are on the card. This avoids the input of the lens. Isn't this saving money again? However, there is one more thing to note: sometimes there will be a special variety of series lenses, such as EFS lens, Canon lens and EF series lens, but there is an S after EF.

This s lens can only be used on EOS300D and 10D, so it can't be used.

Third, the photo output is convenient and fast.

After the studio is digitized, you will find that the output of photos will be more convenient and cheaper. After we take photos with a digital camera, customers will choose photos on the spot. After confirming the photos, if you wait a little longer, the large format inkjet printer next to me will print beautiful photos for you. How much time and money can be saved before and after this? Speaking of which, I think of another topic. A friend who is going to open a small portrait digital studio called me the other day. He asked me how many photos a 6.3 megapixel digital camera can take. My answer is this: it depends on what output method you use. For example, if I use this data file to go directly to the printing factory for plate making and printing, I can only produce a photo as big as the cover of an ordinary magazine, because its output accuracy is different. But if you buy a relatively low-cost large-format inkjet printer in the photo studio, you can print 30 inches. 30 inches is the most suitable size for large-format portrait photos in small and medium-sized photo studios. Then I said, how to solve the small photo? Is such a wide paper wasted by a large format inkjet printer? No, if you put on a collage, the utilization rate of paper will be high. The cost will also come down.

Preparation before opening: Before opening, you can make a collective appointment in the kindergarten near the photo studio, and also do a good job in advertising in the local newspapers with large circulation. The investment income of newspaper advertisements is much higher than that of TV advertisements. In addition, a batch of balloons with store address, telephone number and store logo can be distributed to children free of charge near the business premises. You will have a surprise until the opening day.

The total investment of a municipality directly under the Central Government shall not exceed 70,000 yuan. If you don't understand anything, add me QQ: 5 1399 1965. I have worked in a photo studio for 4 years. I hope my answer can help you.
