No obligation

Yesterday Nigel showed me this on Jayson Kingsbeer’s website:

“My packages are simple and easy to understand, and as an added bonus I will also offer a free engagement shoot even if you do not decide to book your wedding with us.”

Jayson is New Zealand’s youngest professional photographer, but I reckon he has something to teach us, starting with the terrific air of confidence he projects with that offer!

His packages are … cheap … but how do you tell a 15-year-old he’s underselling himself?

He has a Flickr feed.

He has 479 friends on Facebook (480 if he approves me).

He has 1279 followers on Twitter (including me).

He’s been on television.

Read this interview for much more (it’s OK, they got his parent’s permission).

I looked to see what he thought of Photojunction (“Makes designing wedding albums SOOOOOO much easier!”) and Queensberry (“Argh wish I could afford to use Queensberry!”).

If you’re not a photographer on New Zealand’s East Coast, please do us both a favour and spread the word.

Cheers, Ian

PS About Jayson’s no obligation engagement shoot, by happenstance I came across this from Seth (who else?) about the hidden power of a gift “freely and gladly accepted” to create imbalance, and motion, and to change everything.
