STOP. I'm not saying generally, there is a VERY specific question here, please forgive the blanket title to catch you attention. Before I fully ask the question, let me give some information.
I am a boudoir photographer and a part of my job is appealing to women. I offer my services to a very selected demographic. In fact, I can figure out WHO is and who isn't my client with one question. "Why do you want a boudoir session?" If the answer is for anyone BUT herself... I'm not interested.
I have very specific criteria that I want to have met in order to ensure that my services will be most appreciated.
1. I'm NOT going to try to sell her. If she doesn't WANT boudoir photography... I'm not going to peddle it to her.
2. I'm not shooting generic glamour. I shoot a VERY artistic and elegant type of boudoir, I don't hold anything against the McBoudoir shops BUT to me boudoir is an intimate and personal experience. My ideal work has a definite sexual undertone. It IS, afterall, all about finding strength in the feminine sensuality and sexuality... OWNING your nature.
3. It's NOT price based. Yes, I'm expensive. But I'm up front that it costs between $1,000 and $3,000 for everything all included. I don't want to hem and haw about price, I'm not trying to capture the value shoppers.
Ok so... I am trying to find the best way to reach the women who will most WANT my photography. I know they exist... I catch one every once and a while. BUT I want to increase the funnel and catch the RIGHT kind of attention.
Knowing MOST of you are NOT in my immediate are, know that this is NOT a sales thing. I'm doing research. Trying to find out more about women overall... you ARE my ideal customers! Yes, I'm married and I know every woman is different BUT I grew up on Lit and know there are quite a few more open sexually women here. I'd LOVE to get your input and a hint on how to better attract women like you so I can knock the boudoir experience OUT OF THE PARK!
Thank you! If you read through this WHOLE thing... you're amazing. I love you forever!!
