Alright. So my and my other photographer buddy are looking to start a business this summer. We both have nice setups and a fair amount of connections. We made a freewebs site and plan on getting an Exposure Manager page to sell our shots. Our basic business plan is to both have set-up photoshoots of subjects ranging from local familys/kids looking to get some portraits and group shots, to shooting real estate pictures for local landscapers and contractors. We also want to go to some big events (mainly out local 4th of july festivities) and take lots of candids and spur of the moments shots. I hope to get an add in the event flyer saying to go to our site to order prints. I think this day will provide a wide range of customers because there are many things going on that day (fun run, pet pageant, games at park, downhill race, raft race and a parade)
Do you think it is do able to run a somewhat profitable business without having a professional studio and is it possible for 2 photography students to get the word out enough to even get customers? Any input is appreciated!
