The most important thing is to gain the trust of customers.

First of all, you should wear a clean, clean and tasteless towel to wipe your sweat in summer, and carry convenient and hygienic shoe covers with you. Pay attention to take good care of all personal belongings such as your own photographic equipment bag, so as not to affect the hygiene of the customer's residence, and never forget anything. Don't go to the customer's residence just because you are looking for your own things. Don't walk around while waiting, no smoking! Prepare a clean and applicable square towel and put your own photographic equipment and other related items on this cloth when you take them out of your bag for later use. After finishing the shooting task, you only need to clean up the things on the square towel, and don't turn over any east side of the customer when you leave. When working, don't look around, concentrate on shooting, and don't accept any food, cigarettes and other entertainment from customers. In short, be polite, generous and decent. Leave your business card after the shooting, let the customer take the initiative to contact, agree on the time for the next photo shoot, and make an appointment.

Let's talk about equipment:

It is forbidden to use strong light such as flash in baby photography. Although it may be harmless in theory, it must be resolutely avoided. In this way, your camera should consider taking relatively good photos in the soft light of the scene. SLR cameras are essential. It is recommended to use a large aperture fixed-focus lens because there are more opportunities to shoot at high angles. Waiting for the camera for a long time will make you feel very tired and affect the stability of the camera. Consider using a monopod. When shooting, you should be skilled in action, seize the opportunity to grasp fleeting facial expressions, and be skilled in adjusting the white balance. Pay attention to the contrast between the baby's face and the surrounding background, and adjust the exposure value in time.

Ask customers to let the baby eat and sleep in advance, and let customers prepare bedding and carpets suitable for the baby. It's best to have two people to take care of the baby at the shooting scene, and the parents of the child should Doby him (her) in the camera.

The charges can't be specific. You need to make beautiful picture books or photo frames for your customers. When you finish a shooting task, you should agree in advance on the number of photos to be delivered to your customers for free. You should stick to your credit and don't spread the photos of customers in any way at will. You can gain trust by signing a simple contract according to the customer's requirements. In this respect, we can refer to the management and charging methods of other commercial wedding photo studios.

We should design a set of shooting modes for ourselves, implement them seriously with a professional attitude and never slack off!

The above is not necessarily correct, it is my own experience, for reference only.

The last sentence: "The last success is for others"!
