  1. One of the reason I quit portrait photography 12 years ago was that I was tired of doing spec. work photography. I thought, because of the advent of digital, portrait photographers would have started charging by the job, similar to commercial photographers. But I find portrait photographers are still charging by the inch and are never sure how much they are going to get paid for a job. How we should be paid is by the job and not by the size or quantity of prints. If I spend 3 hours working on a job, I should be sure I will be getting paid x for those 3 hours of work. I hope that in the next 12 years, portrait photographers will come up with a better business model. Just my opinion. I may be just a bitter old fart that sucks at sales.

About the Author

Glad you're here.

I'm from WA State USA and started studying photography in 97. I started work as a pro (using that word loosely because I sucked) using film at age 16. I learned fast but was not as easy to find training then. Sometimes I beat my head against the wall until I figured stuff out.

As digital dawned I went all in and got to study with masters like Ken Whitmire. In 09 I founded the Pro Photo Show podcast. I started promoting tone-focused editing. When Lightroom arrived, I started developing tools to make editing and workflow better.

20 years of study and photography around the country earned me a Master of Photography (M.Photog) from PPA. I got to see my workshops and tools featured in publications across the industry. Once I even won the prestigious HotOne award for my "EXposed" light and tone workshop.

Wanting something calmer, I moved to Mexico in 2017. It's a land of magical light. I'm here now exploring light and trying to master my weak areas. I make videos of that for my Youtube channel, sharing what I learn. I hope you'll stick around and be part of Light Hunters Tribe... Gavin
