How do I handle pricing, contracts, and finding clients as a photographer?
You can make the images. That is the part most people can never learn. What is beating you is not photography; it is the business wrapped around it. That is a different skill, and no one is born knowing it. You are not bad at this. You just have not learned this part yet. These three problems are smaller than they feel because they are learnable, one at a time. Pricing is deciding what your time is worth and saying it out loud. Contracts are a simple written agreement so both sides know the deal. Finding clients is mostly showing your work to the right people, again and again. None of it requires talent. It requires practice. Start with pricing, because it unlocks the rest. Look at three other photographers near your level and see what they charge. Set your price in that range and use it on your next inquiry. You can adjust later. Right now you just need one number you can say without flinching.
