You might think that teaching your clients and potential clients to take better pictures is a huge risk of creating your own competition. I believe that anyone who is meant to be a photographer is going to become a photographer one way or another. But I also believe that everyone should know the basics to taking decent snapshots of their families. And who better to learn these basic tips from than their own family photographer!
I have actually found this to be a great way to market myself. You develop a relationship with your clients before ever booking their session. They meet you in a neutral environment and you quickly establish your credibility as a photographer.
The key is to teach them just the basics - pretty much everything they could figure out on their own if they did the research, but you offer it to them in a nice notebook to reference after the workshop, and you are there to show them real life examples, answer their questions, and clear up any confusion.
By the end of the workshop, they feel confident that their snapshots will improve, but still know who to go to for their next portrait session - YOU! Offer an incentive to book on the spot, and you've got yourself a new client!
