I seriously don't know which of the two scenes I preferred, the pub landlord's face as he opened a box to find a signed 18x12 mounted print of a scene involving his business premises, with the pub patrons peering over each other's back to see what he was smiling at, or my son's big smile at watching the whole scene unfold and later telling me that the landlord's expression was priceless...
The pub landlord hadn't been expecting anything from me... he gave me permission to use his premises for a shoot and I promised I'd show him some finished work...
It is so nice to give people something extra, something they didn't pay for or request
I like to make people happy, it makes me happy - so I go a longer way than they expect. I always have something up my sleeve, something I have thought about after our first meeting, and something I work on during our shoot and often afterwards.
Then when we meet again to look at photos, there is that little something special, that extra service or add on they weren't expecting, not just the quality of the images, the special moments captured, the quality of the prints and products....
just because it's me and this is the way I do things , above and beyond... just so that I can see that delighted look on my client's face. Only then is my job done :)
