I am tossing around an idea to start a new photo business sometime down the road. I'm in the very beginning stages right now and I just wanted to get some thoughts if I could.
I thought it was a great idea until I talked to my Mom, and of course, being the cautious Mom type, she had to rain on my parade!:er:
Basically, I have never really heard of this done (it very well possibly could be but I just haven't heard of it)
My idea was to start a "portable portrait studio". After having 2 kids, I know what a chore it is to pack up your kids and go anywhere. My business would be to pack up my gear and bring it to clients' homes to do studio-quality portrait shots in the comfort of their own home! How convenient would that be! You wouldn't have to pack up the kids, you can just be comfortable in your own home and grab props and whatever else you need.
Well, I thought it was all good until my Mom said "What if someone decides to set a trap & to rob you once you go to their home?"
What are your thoughts on this? Does anyone know of existing businesses that already do this?
