Child Brisbane portrait photography is quite a lucrative business model. From birth all the way to young adult, parents and family want to be able to have a visual record of their baby girl or boy growing up. In most cases parents bring in children mostly for special occasions and other reasons to celebrate.

The usual pattern appears to be newborn, six-months, a year, two, three, five, ten, thirteen, and sixteen. For some this pattern extends to 18 and sometimes even 21. And then there’s the top holidays like Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. All these portrait opportunities can add up to a nice residual income, especially if a Brisbane portrait photographer gets plenty of clientele.

But wouldn’t it be nice if there was a way to increase the amount of sales, especially during the early childhood years where the child’s parents may not normally bring them in for Brisbane corporate photography ? Inside of this article you will find not one, not two, but three great ways you are able to make more money with the same clients – and it will not cost you much at all to implement them all.

The first idea is a creative use of a question all children get asked sometime during their youth: “What do you want to be when you grow up?” This question normally results in the typical answers of doctor, firefighter, policeman, astronaut, and cowboy or cowgirl.

Adults like to ask this question as a way to encourage a child to dream of an exciting future for themselves, but wouldn’t it be neat to have a picture of the child dressed up as their preferred profession?

Here’s a quick explanation on how to do this: First, to make sure you don’t have to create elaborate sets or print up some location backdrops, set up a green screen that you will take the child’s picture in front of.
