The Introverted Photographers Club is a podcast for portrait photographers interested in In Person Sales and other creative topics to help your business thrive. Tune in for practical insights and inspiration—all from an introvert’s perspective.
Ep 15. Should You Share Your Photography Prices on Your Website?
In this episode, I chat with Jill of Jill C. Smith Photography (https://www.jillcsmithphotography.com/) and The Business Focused Photographer (https://www.thebusinessfocusedphotographer.com/) about an essential question: should you put your photography prices on your website?
We talk about why hiding your rates can sometimes backfire, how clear pricing builds trust and reduces ghosting, and the pros and cons of different approaches — from all-inclusive packages to in-person sales (IPS). Jill also shares tips for what to include on your pricing page so it’s simple, clear, and helps potential clients feel ready to book.
If you’ve been debating whether to list your prices online, this conversation will give you new insights and practical steps to refine your pricing strategy.

Ep 13. Can You Do In-Person Sales...Without Being In Person?
What does “in-person sales” actually mean...and do you really have to do it in person? In this episode, we break down the flexible, modern approach to IPS for portrait photographers who want to elevate their client experience and increase their sales, without necessarily meeting face-to-face.
Whether you work from a studio, a co-working space, or your living room with Zoom, you’ll learn how IPS can be adapted to fit your energy, workflow, and client needs. This isn’t about selling harder, but rather, guiding better.
If you’ve ever wondered whether IPS is too much work, too pushy, or only for extroverts, this episode may shift your perspective.
