Photography Question

What about the paperwork?


Hi everyone! I am starting my own biz taking portraits of children.

(childflowers.com for those who would like to see my work)

I need forms. Forms for people scheduling photo sessions.. forms for print orders... release forms to photos I use in advertising.. and maybe some forms that I don't know about yet!! LOL

Does anyone know of any online resources for forms that are downloadable, can be modified, free or dirt cheap? Or does anyone have forms they would be willing to share?

I can put them together if I have to but would rather not 'reinvent' the wheel so to speak. Starting out I've been swamped with workload but it's all coming together.

Thank you,
Michelle

  Michelle, see[url=http://shuttermom.com]shuttermom[/url] for forms. they are not free, and frankly kind of expensive, but she has everything in one pkg for the studio owner. Tons of great articles to read too.

  well Jess you did it right for PC! lol. they use a different code over there...PHP I think might be it. here they use HTML, which is that one code that I tried explaining over there.

it would've worked though, you did it right! lol

  There is a book out there called " Business and Legal Forms for Photographers", that is a good place to start...you can get the forms you need and customize from there.
I also did check out your website-great shots!! Child photography is one of my favorites too-though I do all types of portraits. www.staceydamonphotography.com
Be well! Happy New Year!

  Justin, I apparently never checked this post again, so thanks for the heads up, as a matter of fact, PC guys taught me that link!

This book is VERY good, and should give you what you need

  Hi Michelle, don't know if you have located your forms. I purchased a CD from a Co on Ebay for a VERY reasonable price... Do an "advanced search" for a Seller "hydraudia publishing. Or you can go to their web site hydraudiapublishing.com Good Luck!!
