Hilary Wordhaugh

Hilary is a portrait photographer. It came to me that I can understand why she is very good at the job that she does. It is that her images are very nice and beautiful, as she quotes so herself. She can talk to people and I think that is why she gets the great images out of her subjects. Hilary spoke a little on her business side, but not to much. Hilary also gave a demonstration on how a portrait shoot would work and spoke about why she would mainly talk to the kids and get the best out of the kids because mum and dad are the ones paying for the images. One good point that I got out of this was that Hilary shows her clients the size of the images on her wall in her studio with a projector and the difference of a 5x7 image on the wall to a 40x60 image, so she can sell the large prints. Hilary is also a good sales lady, getting her clients into the 'yes' mood so when it comes to buying big prints then it 'yes'.
