Nick DePasquale Photography

I talk with them about their goals and objectives; design a solution that satisfies those goals and objectives; and then deliver a solution that far exceeds expectations. I then design pricing that is fair and reasonable.

I have taken many courses, seminars, and workshops over the years. I currently study with a professional commercial photographer on a mentorship basis who has shot for many major magazines, news outlets, and corporations including National Geographic. I complete at least 3 intensive workshops per year designed on raising my work to new levels. I teach new to advanced students to keep myself sharp. I also subscribe to many online tools. One can never stop learning.

My pricing is very reasonable. I am quite flexible in putting together packages that work for my clients. I typically travel to my client's locations and remote work and sessions are available. The pricing that I quote is al inclusive. Not additional fees or surprises. I offer free services to not-for-profit organizations throughout the year.

Onsite lessons are $50/hour.  Remote lessons are $30/hour. 

I love sharing what I have learned over the years helping sudents raise the level of their work up a noth or two.  I got tired of the rat race of wedding and event photography and decided to take an artistic approach and help others to learn.

I have worked with absolute begginers to advanced photographers in the business.  I love working at all levels.

There are several recent projects that I am fond of. First is a student that did not know how to use a camera and was going to Africa in about 10 days. She engaged me for 2 tutoring sessions to learn how to use a DSLR camera with long zoom lens to take photos of animals and birds. She came with fantastic shots that I am in envy of! Another recent project was for a local not-for-profit organization that needed a couple of images for their holiday solicitation material. They wanted a creative photo of a mother and 2 children, not showing their faces that communicated the essence of their organization. I created the concept for the image, staged and shot the images. Total process took less than a week from idea creation to final delivery of the images. The client was very happy. A third project is the restoration of a severely damaged photograph of 2 children that was the only image left. The photograph was torn folded and missing pieces. I was able restore and print the photo to look like an original. The customer was ecstatic and I was quite happy to be able to deliver the photo before the holidays so that it could be given as a surprise gift.

Check out their work, their references, and their artistic vision of the world through lens. A great photographer is passionate about their work while being sensitive to the needs and requests of their clients. They are willing to share their knowledge, experience, and lessons learned without holding back. They add to the overall experience positively with their clients. It should not be all about the $$$ for the photographer. It should be more about the images and the experience.

Prospective clients should think through their goals, objectives and expectations, and be as clear as possible. Then they should depend on the professional in helping to further define and refine them. Most professionals are great at what they do and achieving success is tied to great communication.
