A-Executive Summary
Families need photographs to capture the special moments of their lives. Families of
professionals are busy, and if too much time goes by between photos, these moments
are lost forever. Babies, especially, grow fast and parents need photos of them several
times a year.
While nearly everyone has a camera for snapshots, people need professional quality
photos when they will be shown to an important audience, and when people want to
be seen in the best light. The Internet has expanded the use of photos, making it
possible for anyone to send them or to publish them for wide viewing.
Professionals often have business needs for high-quality photos, and through this
familiarity, they acquire a taste for them. When these professionals need photos to
preserve memories, or to display family photos when they entertain at home, they
have the budget and the desire for similarly high-quality photos. Just as they appoint
their homes with fine furniture and decorations, the photos on their walls need to
exhibit their standards of quality.
Most people use professional photo studios only on rare occasions, such as weddings,
yearbook pictures, or baby portraits. Because the client has to initiate the call, many
special moments are lost and the studio loses potential business. Photo studios
generally charge a large fee for CDs of their clients' digital images. For these reasons,
most photo studios are rarely used by families as a whole.
This photography business plan shows how Randa Studio will meet the needs of
professionals and their families to capture the special moments in their lives and
present them in the best light. We will establish a relationship in which we initiate the
calls to keep their photos up to date. Digital files of their photos will be available for
free by e-mail, or with a nominal fee for CD. Because of our relationship with the
families, when something big like a wedding comes, there's no place else they would
go.
Randa studio will grow at an annual rate of over 40 percent by targeting families of
professionals with newborn babies for baby pictures and then developing a
relationship with the client over the years for ongoing photographs. The funding
requested in this plan is projected to result in a comfortable annual net profit by Year3
The opening of randa Studio will mark a change in the way professional photography
is delivered. Rather than being a rare place to visit, this photo studio will be a fun part
of a family's lives, helping them capture special moments and share them in a digital
world.

So, I write down my big, yearly goals, and then I break those down into more
achievable, smaller, 90-day goals. Subsequently, those get broken down into monthly,
weekly and daily goals.
I have relatives and friends who live far from my area, Nablus, and I wanted to visit
them. I also wanted to shoot a wedding in the scenic landscape. Knowing exactly
what I wanted to do made my goal specific and therefore a lot easier for me to work
towards.
I contacted some studios and did my work. She also offered to film editorial
campaigns as a way to find work in front of the local audience. I started tagging all
my Instagram photos with "wedding" and showing them to the world at every
opportunity.- and publicly told people about my goal.
After only a few weeks of setting a goal, I was able to communicate with a couple
from the same area where I filmed a wedding photograph inside of which they told
me they loved my job. They were getting married in their town and they wanted
pictures of the fjords and mountains. It was a dream come true.
The wedding was everything I dreamed of, even making life-long friendships.
I achieved my goal and was amazed at how quickly everything happened. It's amazing
what you can do when you set a specific goal by presenting it to the world and sharing
it with people.
I rewarded myself for this work because I did a hard and difficult job and I need
reward from myself for continuing my work with love and creativity.
SWOT Analysis :
Unique SELLING Proposition
Our Unique Selling Point; What Makes Our Photography Company Superior to Our
Competitions
Our unique selling point as a photography company is that we are not only going to
operate a standard photography studio in palestine, but we will also engage in outdoor
photography. Aside from that, we will be one of the few photography companies in Las
Vegas that has a standard children’s photography studio.
Another unique selling point that will give us leverage in the market is that we will ensure
that we sign contracts with parents to become the official photographer of the children.
For example, if we sign any contract with an expectant mother / parents, it means that at
least we will cover the child / children from birth to their one year birthday and then
present a photo album / photo book to them at the end of the one year contract.
It is a way of giving them a long lasting memory of their first 12 months on earth. We
will always give them the room to renew the contract; perhaps to continue to cover and
document every milestone they achieve.
