Last week I announced that I would be ending my podcast series at the end of this month and explained some of the reasons why. I’ve been juggling a lot of things over the past few years - a wedding photography business, a YouTube channel, a full-time job and being a father, as well as my wedding photography coaching program. But before I sign off, I want to share with you one more revelation I’ve had in the last few months - Facebook Messenger chatbots. I really believe that this is the future of marketing in the wedding photography industry and provides an effective way to get leads and communicate with prospective clients. Since establishing my chatbot, I’ve been getting 4-5 leads per day and chatting directly with customers about their wedding photography needs. I’m currently creating a curriculum to help other wedding photographers and vendors implement chatbots into their business and utilize it as a marketing tool. To learn more, check out the free masterclass at www.weddingchatbots.com and get on the chatbot train before it becomes completely saturated.
As they say, “You can do anything but you can’t do everything”. So I sat down and decided where I could utilize my time in the most effective way possible and have the most impact. I plan on continuing my YouTube videos, as I’ve found the visual content is more user-friendly than audio, and I’ll also be continuing my Wedding Photography Coaching program. This boot camp-style program is designed to help new wedding photographers fast-track their business, from just starting out to booking their first 10 weddings. So if you’re struggling to get things off the ground, let’s connect and see if I can assist you in any way. I want to thank all of my listeners - both new ones and those who have been onboard since I started out back in October 2015. This isn’t “goodbye” forever but just for now.
It’s easy to always be comparing ourselves to our competition in wedding photography. You might be following other wedding photographers on Facebook and Instagram or you’re going to networking events where you’re meeting them and being exposed to their work. But constantly comparing yourself to others can harm your confidence and ultimately hurt your business. In this podcast episode, I’ll explain why focusing on what I needed to do to be the best photographer I could be has contributed to my success and helped me to stay in business for so long. Particularly if you’re in a big, competitive market, what good is it to be constantly worrying about what others are doing, rather than focused on what your next step is. There’s a fine line between understanding why clients might go with another photographer instead of you and caring about who your competitors are. More importantly, you should be learning from your own mistakes, discovering ways you can stand out and focus on serving your clients to the best of your ability.
This April marks 12 years since I got into wedding photography and in that time, so much has changed. But to be honest, a lot of the things I was doing back then are still fundamental to the success of my business today and haven’t changed at all. In this podcast episode, I’ll share with you some of the things I’ve been doing for the last 12 years that have helped me to become successful in wedding photography. These include providing great customer service, taking high-quality photographs, collecting reviews and taking advantage of SEO. I’ll also share with you what has changed and why such as no longer going to networking events or worrying about what my competitors are doing. As my lifestyle and priorities have changed, I’ve also had to become more efficient and focused on the way I run my business. By sharing with you what’s changed and what has stayed the same, I want to highlight the importance of finding a balance and understanding what works for you. While you need to adapt to changes taking place in technology and means of communication, you shouldn’t lose sight of what’s most important and what is of real value to your prospective clients.
With the internet at our fingertips, you really can Google any information you need and get answers straight away. Perhaps you type into a search engine “how to book wedding photography clients” and it will come up with millions of free articles offering tips or even courses and programs with the answers you’re after. So if everything you need is already out there, why are you still struggling as a wedding photographer? In my opinion, it’s because the information that’s out there is lacking three things: A proven step-by-step approach on how to complete tasks and achieve tangible results. Accountability to ensure you get the work done. A network of like-minded people who are just as committed to achieving success as you are. That’s why in this day and age, you’re not going to cut it as a wedding photographer if you’re just sourcing your information online. You need a coach who’s gone through it all before and can offer you advice, hold you accountable and connect you with others who are in exactly the same boat. Not only will you get the information you need to become successful but the support to ensure you achieve your goals.
“Be someone or do something worth talking about in wedding photography” - this is my take on Benjamin Franklin’s famous quote. In a day and age when there are so many photographers out there and the market is completely saturated, it can be difficult to stand out. It used to be easy to just have the best gear and be a great wedding photographer to get clients. But today, you need to do much more. The truth is, people really care about how you make them feel and what benefits you’ll bring to them. So in this podcast episode, I want to focus on finding ways you can make a difference, bring value to others and do something that’s memorable in other people’s minds. If you’re just starting out as a second photographer, are you dependable and reliable? Or if you’re running your own wedding photography business, what are you doing that’s making a difference in the lives of your clients, other wedding photography vendors….even other wedding photographers? We’ll chat about what you can do outside of the box to make you stand out from the competition and be a wedding photographer that’s worth talking about.
When you first start out in wedding photography, you’re probably just soaking it all in and wanting to learn as much as possible. But there comes a point where you have to start taking action and put in the time required to get things done that will lead to bookings. In doing so, you have to start saying “no” to lots of other things in your life and focus that energy on growing your business. It might sound like a harsh reality, but saying “no” as a wedding photographer to other things in your life is what it takes to be successful. It might be saying “no” to socializing and watching TV or maybe it’s saying “no” to social media (aside from business needs). Perhaps there are hobbies or interests in your life that you need to scale back to give yourself time to focus on your business. In this podcast episode, we’ll chat about the importance of prioritizing things in your life and figuring out what you can say “no” to. If you try and do everything, it just won’t work and the success of your wedding photography business will suffer.
Something I hear time and time again from reading industry-related articles and chatting with colleagues is that wedding photography is dead. The market has become completely saturated with so many wedding photographer entering the market and they’re driving the prices down, making it hard for existing (and new) photographers to make a living. Once you’ve paid for your operational and education expenses, as well as gear and marketing, you’re left with little to show for it. So is wedding photography dead? While I agree that times are challenging and prices are being driven down with more competition, I don’t agree that you can’t make a healthy living in the industry. In this podcast episode, I’ll debunk some of the most common, related complaints I’ve been hearing through social media discussions and direct from colleagues, such as their struggles with only getting budget clientele leads to not getting any leads at all, despite spending thousands on advertising. One of the most interesting perspectives is that of new wedding photographers and seasoned pros who are both struggling because of the other. I often hear seasoned pros complaining about all the new wedding photographers diluting the market while new photographers are finding it impossible to get a foot in the door with so many established ones around. If you want to succeed in today’s market, it’s still possible but you have to adapt and evolve with the times. So wedding photography is very much alive, provided you know how to capitalize on it.
Chances are you have a timeline that you’re working towards and a goal for achieving success in wedding photography. Perhaps it’s when you start booking X amount of weddings a year or have the financial security that you can quit your conventional job. But the truth is, that window of success isn’t open as long as you might think it is and if you haven’t gotten to where you want to be in three years, it’s probably already closed. This might sound like tough love but it’s based on my experience of chatting and coaching dozens of wedding photographers over the years. If you’re doing the same things over and over again, without making any inroads or gaining traction in your business, then you need to re-evaluate things. Perhaps you’ve had the mindset that you’ve got years to get to where you want to be and are just doing the bare minimum when it comes to working on your business. If this is the case, then you’re going to get left behind. Remember, not only are you competing against your own timeline but hundreds of other wedding photographers in your market who are willing to do the work. So, if you’re running on a treadmill and feel like everyone is passing you by, it’s time to take a good, hard look in the mirror and face reality.
We’ve all heard the phrase about getting someone to “know, like and trust you” and this definitely rings true as a wedding photographer. In this podcast episode, I’ll break down why each of these elements is important to your success in booking wedding photography clients and introduce you to a couple more steps that are essential in the process. Wedding photography clients will probably “know” about you through your marketing or word of mouth from family and friends. Then they’ll decide if they “like” your work, style, and branding by browsing your website, as well as get an idea if your personality suits them. But rather than skipping from this step directly to having “trust”, they need to “remember” you, after they’ve been distracted by whatever else is going on in their lives. You need to be fascinating or outstanding enough that you stick in their mind until the time comes that they actually “need/want” a wedding photographer. Hopefully, by this stage, you’ve done enough to earn their “trust”, whether it’s through online reviews or recommendations from family and friends. If that’s the case, they’ll justify paying whatever it is you’re charging and you’ll secure the booking.
When you first start out in wedding photography, you’re probably excited and inspired about what lies ahead. But as soon as you start running into challenges, these feelings can quickly transition into nerves and fears about the reality of being a wedding photographer. Perhaps you’re afraid that despite all the hard work and investment in equipment, people won’t love your photographs and family or friends won’t want to recommend you. Maybe you’re worried that clients will arrange a meeting but then decide they don’t trust you or simply don’t like you enough to book. Your fears as a wedding photographer might be that you’ll do a terrible job on a couple’s special day and your reputation will be completely ruined. After more than a decade working as a wedding photographer, I can tell you that these fears never go away, so it’s important to understand that they’re completely normal. In this podcast episode, we’ll chat about how you can channel them into something positive and motivating while pushing yourself to be even better.
After working in this industry for more than 10 years, it’s become apparent that (more often than not), we attract wedding photography clients that reflect who we are. Perhaps it’s in their personalities, beliefs or values, and this could translate into a good or bad thing for your business. If you’re getting your ideal clientele, then great - keep doing what you’re doing! Obviously, you have a clear idea of who you are as an individual and are authentic in how you present yourself to wedding photography clients. However, if you’re constantly getting inquiries from clients asking for a discount or those who are micromanaging you throughout the day, then it might be time to take a good, hard look in the mirror. In this podcast episode, we’ll chat about why people want to do business with people who are similar to them and how this makes clients feel comfortable. Maybe you’ve noticed that your clients are just as reserved or outgoing as you are. Or perhaps you feel that your clients don’t trust you. Does this reflect your own lack of trust in the way you interact with people? So if your business isn’t going well, it might be time to question why you’re getting the types of clients you are and what this really says about you.
Often you’ll hear wedding photographers saying they got X number of leads last month or a wedding photography directory claims they’ll get you a certain number of leads if you advertise with them. But it’s important to understand that not all leads are equal and there is a big difference between quality leads and those that are just wasting your time. So what exactly is a quality wedding photography lead? In this podcast episode, we’ll discuss their criteria so you know how to go about getting them. Does your photography attract the kind of clientele you want and result in leads for weddings at venues you want to shoot at (and in your preferred style)? I’ll also share with you some of my tips for getting quality wedding photography leads, including the need to be in multiple places, having a solid website and responding to queries in a prompt manner. I truly believe that once you’ve got the lead, you’re more than halfway to securing the booking.
It might sound like a harsh reality check but there are some things you just have to do if you want to become a successful wedding photographer. And if you’re not willing…then don’t bother! It’s better to save your time and money, rather than go down a path that’s doomed to failure. In this podcast episode, I’ll share with you 10 things that you need to do if you want to see traction in your business. We’ll start with things like stop complaining about not getting enough leads or having enough time available, as well as stop making excuses about why you haven’t seen the success you want. It’s also essential that you have a game plan with realistic goals that you’re going to stick to and that you surround yourself with like-minded people who are just as committed as you are to help keep you motivated. This year is all about simplifying your road to success as a wedding photographer and taking a no-nonsense approach. So whether you’re just starting out in the industry or you’ve been at it a while and aren’t seeing the results you want, this checklist should be your first port of call.
As the New Year celebrations die down and people are back at work, it’s time to look ourselves in the mirror and ask some tough questions. This is not about “Am I going to go full-time or part-time in wedding photography?” but “Am I EVER going to make it in wedding photography at all?” When you’re just getting started in wedding photography, there’s always a high level of excitement as you get things off the ground. But fast-forward six months and many of us hit a brick wall, with no traction and no portfolio to show for our efforts. So perhaps you head to YouTube or a conference to get inspired, or maybe you invest some money, hoping it will lead to a few bookings or even just the opportunity to second shoot. In this episode, I want to tell you that you’re not alone and I completely understand that feeling. I’ve been there and there are even moments now when I feel I’m not getting results for the hard working I’m putting in. But rather than stumbling along in the dark, I want us to look ourselves in the mirror and figure out what our game plan is.
