How does Portrait Hub differ from other photography studios?We’re trying to change the industry! Over the past 20 years of working in other studios, around Sydney and Australia, We often heard what’s the catch? you’re going to force me spend $1000’s, You’re going to pressure me to buy more, We have also seen tactics from some studios pressuring people into buying images, with threats such as “Sign here or they get deleted straight away” “That will be $XXX for all images, Sign here for finance.” Some studios don’t even give you an option, they just print out what you chose and say “How do you want to pay” Sadly this still happens in many studios. We have seen it, We’ve heard it, some of our clients have told us about other studios and WE DON’T LIKE IT! WE WILL NEVER DO THAT! There is nothing worse then giving you an amazing time in the shoot room and making you feel awkward or uncomfortable in the viewing room. We have a ‘NO PRESSURE NO OBLIGATION” policy. We would never make you feel uncomfortable. IT’S JUST NOT US Your invitation is an opportunity to try us without having to buy us. If you want extra images, great! WE CAN SHOW YOU AFFORDABLE OPTIONS. if you don’t want anything extra, that’s great too.
