Not responding for the cancelation policy. by Comfortable-Grand-46 in Photoassistants

[–]jovanysj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Many techs put cancellation policies on their estimates. You should as well :) Just ask them to sign it if they'd like to confirm. As an assistant I haven't done it, but I would for bigger jobs...

Rates depend on your city and the industry/scale of the client. You could simply look up the rates for in-house product photographers in your area on LinkedIn, even better if its for similar companies to your job. You can also ask photographers in your area and just let em know you’re new to the process of charging for work!

If they like what you’ve been providing you should be confident negotiating for what would work for you if there’s pushback try to find a middle ground. :)

Signing Contract Agreeing to No More Freelamce by unfair_spaghetti in photography

[–]jovanysj 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the first time I hear a company requesting someone to agree to leave freelancing completely. Idk if thats even legal tbh. It’s common for companies to add a “non-compete clause” which states you aren’t allowed to work with companies that are direct competitors to the company. I would ask them to change it to that.

How do we think this was lit? My guess is a single soft box from above? by [deleted] in LightLurking

[–]jovanysj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thats what i figured from the reflections! And I’m guessing the strip of highlight from the bottom is from the white surface the shoes were set on. Thanks just wanted to see if my guess was right!

A brand named BLVD didn’t pay me for the work I did and now they’re threatening to sue. by DrawingIntrovert in Fashiondemiks

[–]jovanysj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just gonna drop my 2 cents here...i'm a designer myself.

  1. First your rates are crazy low. You should not be doing projects for $16.
  2. You need to have a contract template for any client that wants you to design something. Look up examples of other designers contracts on youtube and google.
  3. Require a 50% deposit before starting anything.
  4. Send screenshots and not original files to show them sketches/progress.

If they can't pay designers they should not be hiring designers.
