‹ Photo Notes · 26 března, 2020
Our lives and plans have changed literally from week to week, from day to day, and they keep changing. While Germany released €50 billion to support artists and cultural businesses, our government takes a slightly different approach. Somehow we have to keep going, though…
I am not panicking, complaining or whining. I am looking for a solution, a way out (who wouldn’t want out these days, right…). Like many of you, my consumption of wine and the frequency of sex went up in these days. It has its pleasant sides, but so far I haven’t figured out how to make a living from it. I am writing this candidly, so forgive the informality and any clumsiness of the text.
At the same time, please take everything that follows with a grain of salt, because the government changes the rules every minute, and it is quite likely that what I write at this hour will be semi-legal or completely outside the law in the next.
„The Czech will adapt“ (Cimrman Theatre, Song Against Despondency)
So I expect that everything written below will in practice be adjusted day by day to the current situation, through personal agreement.
The truth is that under the given conditions and with the status quo of my activities, we could be talking about liquidation conditions (I am not a haberdashery or a flower shop, and I am certainly not part of a holding). Let’s admit it, my work is not vital in any way. I hand out joy, entertainment, delight, and maybe some teaching to someone (how to shoot and approach photography). That is why I had to come up with a few alternatives, new offers, temporary discounts…
Current state and offer (valid until further notice)
- Group workshops that have already been announced, or sold, are postponed until further notice („right afterwards“).
Let’s not throw in the towel and not drop our trousers long before the ford… I will inform everyone personally, and anyone who disagrees will get their money back. Otherwise we will find the nearest possible date. There is no point in announcing new workshops for now. - Vouchers / gift certificates – you can buy a voucher in advance for a shoot or a workshop and when it becomes possible, you simply sign up….
This form of support can help a great deal right now. - Private workshops (one-on-one) – discount approx. 30 %
You will find the description of these workshops in English, including price examples before the discount, on this page. To get an idea, subtract about 30 % from the price. We can tailor a workshop to your requirements, experience and so on. - Private shoot – 7000 CZK (approx. 50% discount)
- Sale of printed photographs (signed limited series, mostly max. 5 pieces per edition, max. 10 for some older ones) – discount approx. 70 %
- 60 x 40 cm – 7000 CZK
- 90 x 60 cm – 9000 CZK
- 150 x 100 cm – 12000 CZK
Other sizes, or other requirements, by agreement
- Online workshops – NEW
- Individual (any time) – 1000 CZK/hour
- Group (date by agreement, max. 4 participants) – 1200 CZK/person/approx. 2 – 2.5 hours
Programme: consultation of your photographs, composition, light, camera settings, photo editing etc… details on request
- Patreon – I have newly launched, or rather revived, my Patreon account, where you will find unique content for which there was no room elsewhere.
I value your support, and if you can, feel like it and something in the offer caught your eye, now is the best time to use it. You know that from me you always get the maximum. At the same time you will help me, in this stupid time, to keep offering you that maximum in the future too.
Thank you very much. And stay healthy, let’s stay healthy 🙂 To your health, and hopefully back to normal soon!
