Stepping up projection or large screen display for sales can make a world of difference to your success. ProSelect software has the functions that you will need to get the job done, including a browser, slide-show and an ordering system to mention a few. You’ll learn how ProSelect allows you to show your images in a professional manner, as large as possible and how that gets your clients emotionally involved. You can show different possibilities, and also make it easy to choose and compare, which ultimately will help make it easier for them to buy.

I have been in photography since 1990. Up until 3 years ago, my business consisted of 85% weddings, 15% portraits. Now it’s 90% portraits. I currently operate out of my home studio of 400 sq.ft. That’s reception, office, projection and camera rooms. Yes, all that.
