Episode Synopsis

In this powerful episode, I’m breaking down one of the most emotionally charged and commonly misunderstood topics in the photography industry: pricing models. There’s a myth floating around that there’s only one right way to price your services—and it’s just not true. Whether you're all-inclusive, sales-based, or somewhere in between, profitability has less to do with how you price and more to do with what works for you, your time, and your ideal client. I'm walking you through the mindset shifts, real math, and client-focused strategies that help you stop guessing and start owning your pricing with confidence. Key Takeaways: There’s no one-size-fits-all pricing model—profitability is about knowing your numbers. Selling digital files is not “less than.” They’re a high-value product that clients want and need. Time is your most valuable currency if your pricing model doesn't honor it, it's not sustainable. Your pricing structure must align with the lifestyle, needs, and expectations of your ideal client. Before copying someone else’s model, understand your actual cost per session and profit margin. Final Thoughts:It’s time to ditch the pressure to price like someone else. Your pricing should reflect your strengths, your lifestyle, your client base, and your actual time investment. You don’t need a trendy model—you need a sustainable one. Remember: confident pricing leads to a thriving business. Links & Resources:📄 Download the FREE Pricing Worksheet to calculate your real profit per session🎧 Listen to more episodes 💬 DM me on Instagram @elenasblair_photography to tell me what pricing model is working for you
