Podcasts about commercial photography

At first glance, photographers Chris Orwig and Aaron Anderson seem an unlikely pairing—with the natural light and high key palette of Chris's portraits forming a sharp contrast to the cinematic lighting and film noir aura featured in Aaron's work. Yet, their heartfelt discussion about creative reinvention in today's podcast celebrates the notion that opposites attract. Adding to our core topic of reshaping skills at every stage of your career, we'll also delve into keeping abreast of creative trends and remaining relevant as a creator in an increasingly competitive commercial marketplace. Beginning with the premise that it's the teacher who learns the most in the room, Chris and Aaron describe their respective career paths, highlighting the importance of trusting the process that leads to creative growth. As Aaron points out, “that's when I think a lot of the magic happens, because you're learning to trust the part of you that is creating. And it's a really fun thing to see that come to life, because the more you can trust that part of yourself, the more consistently you can create images that feel like you, and that look like the voice that you want to have out in the world.” Guests: Chris Orwig & Aaron Anderson Stay Connected: Aaron Anderson Aaron Anderson Visuals Website Aaron Anderson Visuals on Instagram Aaron Anderson Visuals on Facebook Aaron Anderson Visuals on YouTube Aaron Anderson Visuals on X Aaron Anderson Fujifilm Creators page Start with Why book Chris Orwig Chris Orwig Website Chris Orwig on Instagram Chris Orwig on Facebook Chris Orwig on YouTube Chris Orwig on X Chris Orwig Sony Ambassador page   Host: Derek Fahsbender Senior Creative Producer: Jill Waterman Senior Technical Producer: Mike Weinstein Executive Producer: Richard Stevens

As any established photographer will tell you, forging a career can be a long and arduous journey, with no instruction manual to guide you through the process. The lofty world of top-notch pros is often shrouded in mystery and full of things they don't teach in photo school. In today's show, we get to peek behind the scenes of this complex, and often chaotic environment in a chat with two colleagues who've found a way to balance their freelance careers as independent creators with lucrative work assisting in a high-profile photo studio. Listen in, to learn how a casual job application through LinkedIn landed Mike Foley an interview, ultimately resulting in a salaried role as first assistant to a world-class portrait photographer. While technical mastery counts for a lot, we discuss the critical importance of soft skills like personality and work ethic to success in such environments. We also distinguish between salaried full-time work and more common freelance roles, and the juggling required to coordinate the complex planning involved.  As freelance lighting assistant (and longtime café owner) Alex Savidis admits, “the juggle becomes quite hard at times, but I think it's a necessity, especially when you're trying to pursue something that you're passionate about. You can't just become a successful photographer overnight. It takes years to build up to that.” Guests: Mike Foley & Alex Savidis Episode Timeline: 2:57: Mike Foley describes heirloom portraiture as his bespoke brand of portrait with the ability to last a lifetime. 5:10: The backstory to Mike getting hired as a photo assistant for a world class portrait photographer. 11:25: The personality and skill set needed to work in a high-end photo studio, Alex's take on being added to the team, plus the various roles within the studio. 17:30: The role of a B-cam operator to capture the finer details of a video shoots, plus an overview of a typical shoot day. 23:05: Mike talks about the video work in his portfolio as a differentiating factor in his getting the assisting job. 28:23: The work structure and expectations for photo assistants, from freelance to salaried positions, plus discussion about length of tenure. 34:50: Episode Break 35:55: Memorable stories from the studio—from the largest two-day shoot with a crew of 150, to the core personnel involved in work-a-day shoots. 42:28: NDA's and the etiquette of what an assistant is able to share when dealing with high-end clients. 46:30: The growing acceptance of photographers who do freelance work and juggle regular 9-5 jobs with photo assignments.   52:07: Learning outcomes from working in a world class portrait studio, and the mindset to hold yourself to a higher standard. 57:49: Mike and Alex share advice for budding photographers based on what they've learned from working in a world-class photo studio.   Guest Bios:  Mike Foley is a New York City-based photographer specializing in heirloom portraiture and editorial photography. After starting out photographing weddings and small events, Mike quickly grew into commercial work, providing clients with timeless images they can use to elevate their visual presence and define their brand. His approach behind the camera is warm and humanistic, allowing his subjects the space to be themselves. In addition to his own photo services, Mike is currently content manager and digital designer for an internationally renowned portrait photographer. On set, he serves as first assistant and B-camera operator, while also providing on-set and post-production support behind the scenes for clients like Balenciaga, New York Magazine, and many more. Australian native Alex Savidis is passionate about storytelling through both still and moving imagery. Based in New York since 2020, he pushes creative boundaries by merging elements from his street and landscape photography into his portraiture & wedding work, weaving memories into art. For the past year and a half, Alex has also worked as lighting assistant and B cam operator in the same high-profile portrait studio as Mike, catering to world-renowned clients and political leaders. On B cam, it's his job to focus on finer details and provide viewers with a deeper, more intimate perspective on a given subject, capturing nuances that enhance the storytelling. Additionally, when he's not juggling camera gear or fine-tuning lights, you can find Alex behind the counter of the café Regular NYC in southern Manhattan, an establishment he founded in early 2024.

Above Photograph © Chase Jarvis We've all heard the saying “The best camera is the one that's with you.” But do you know how this catch phrase ended up as a mantra of the mobile economy? In today's show, we speak with Chase Jarvis, the man behind Best Camera—the wildly successful photo sharing app that predated Instagram—to get an inside look at his wild ride.  A born entrepreneur and self-made photographer with a hunger that always worked against the grain, Chase's meteoric rise in action sports/lifestyle photography dovetailed with the dawn of the sharing economy, leading him to a moonshot idea.

All told, you'll gain fascinating insights into the nexus of creative innovation and big business at the highest levels.  When asked about his biggest take away from Best Camera given the benefit of hindsight, Chase doesn't miss a beat, responding, “If you want to go fast, go alone, if you want to go far, go together.” Guest: Chase Jarvis Episode Timeline: 3:44: How Chase's mastery of sports and the gift of his grandfather's camera gear led to a passion for teaching himself photography. 9:33: Channeling real-world examples from his grandfather and father into early pictures, along with library books about the masters' and photographic techniques. 15:35: The development of Chase's early entrepreneurial spirit and how his second-grade teacher stifled these efforts. 22:50: Bucking trends and connecting with the uniqueness you bring to your images as a creative style. 26:32: Embracing social media and the sharing community early on and the ability to see around the corner as an entrepreneur. 35:53: Chase's fast track to commercial success, technological innovation, and developing the Best Camera App. 46:20: Episode Break 47:48: The lessons learned from the Best Camera failure and how Chase channeled these lessons into the success of the first livestreaming learning platform, Creative Live. 52:24: Making the pivot from the first live photo feed to building Creative Live as a way to answer questions the questions asked by a massive global audience.  1:00:51: Creative Live's pioneering approach to a freemium business model, plus offering access as a core company value. 1:05:29: The most popular offerings at Creative Live: the fundamentals, the business of classes, and the big name thought leaders. 1:12:38: Chase's views on the current—and future—landscape in social media, creativity, and AI, plus advice for getting comfortable being uncomfortable.  1:20:43: What success means to Chase, and the message in his recent book Never Play it Safe: A Practical Guide to Freedom, Creativity and a Life You Love. Guest Bio:  Chase Jarvis is an award-winning artist, entrepreneur, bestselling author, and one of the most influential photographers of the past 20 years, whose diverse portfolio spans from advertising campaigns for Apple, Nike, and Red Bull to collaborations with athletes like Serena Williams and icons such as Lady Gaga and Sir Richard Branson. As an early adopter of social media and the sharing economy, Chase created Best Camera (the first photo-sharing app) in 2009 and co-founded the online education platform CreativeLive in 2010. Chase has spoken on six continents and advised Fortune 100 companies, with invitations to both the Obama White House and Buckingham Palace.

Guest photographer Rob Percy joins Kam and Mark to chat through photography news stories from around the world and a more in depth discussion on how commercial photography is changing.  Are enough photographers adapting to the changing needs of potential clients? 

Allan Weitz had little idea of the grand photographic adventures in store when he signed on as host of the B&H Photography Podcast shortly before the show's debut in October 2015. As a self-described big mouth, and with more than 40 years as a working pro fueling his curiosity about all things photographic, Allan quickly honed his chops to become the voice of the show. Today's episode marks a crossroads, as Allan passes his hosting mic to the show's incoming host, Derek Fahsbender, producer and host of the B&H Event Space. During a lively chat, we celebrate Allan's long and successful career, both on assignment and at the helm of the podcast, with some never before told stories and audio clips from memorable interactions with guests. A few of the many topics we cover include, how a kid from Sheepshead Bay made a name for himself photographing classic yachts, the ways in which Allan's time behind a New Jersey deli counter enhanced his ability to engage with people on a human level—among other benefits to career reinvention—and how his shift into podcasting taught him to use his voice as an instrument. As Allan aptly summarized for attendees of the podcast team's 2018 presentation of Podcasting 101: “It's not always what you say, but how you say it.” Guest: Allan Weitz Episode Timeline  3:38: Allan's B&H Event Space segment from Podcasting 101. 8:35: The back story to Allan's one-word podcast intro “Greetings!” 10:44: Allan's chat with digital camera inventor Steve Sasson about their shared Brooklyn roots.  13:56: Allan's hosting skills as a court jester—or Tummler in Yiddish. 16:12: Gear talk, and a clip from Allan's chat with Bellamy Hunt of The Japan Camera Hunter. 21:19: Allan waxes poetic about his love for the Hasselblad Superwide, plus his early adoption of digital gear.  28:24: Branching out from commercial assignments to tech writing and other things. 38:18: Episode break 39:27: Memorable stories and life lessons from Allan's assignment career. 44:22: Allan's entrée to the world of yachting photography and portfolio tips. 50:44: Allan's career evolution in the rarified 1980s photography landscape. 57:31: The art of the interview and the value of collaboration among the podcast team.  59:53: Getting beyond difficult pictures during an interview with Bruce Gilden  1:03:50: Upcoming plans and Allan's Kodachrome book project. 1:10:31: Allan offers listeners his Tusen Takks for their trust in his time behind the mic.  Guest Bio: Allan Weitz started taking pictures when digital meant doing something with your fingers. A graduate of New York City's High School of Art and Design and the School of Visual Arts, Allan is the founding host of the B&H Photography Podcast, one of the highest-rated photography podcasts in Apple's Creative Arts category.  For more than 50 years, Allan's photographs have graced the covers and inside pages of dozens of publications, including New York magazine, Esquire, GQ, Yachting, and Nautical Quarterly. Many of these images have won him awards from the New York, Philadelphia, and New Jersey Art Directors Clubs, the Graphic Artists Guild, Art Direction Magazine, Print, and Graphis, among others.  More recently, Allan has had great success exhibiting—and winning awards for—his photos as fine art prints, as well as dabbling with artificial intelligence using the traditional photos from his vast image library as source material.  Stay Connected: Allan Weitz Website: https://www.allanweitz.com/ Allan Weitz Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allanweitz/ Allan Weitz articles on the B&H Explora Blog: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/users/allan-weitz Podcasting 101 with the B&H Photography Podcast Team: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yd2KDaNSjGI Steve Sasson Podcast Episode: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/podcasts/photography/invention-of-digital-camera Japan Camera Hunter Podcast Episode: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/podcasts/photography/podcast-the-japan-camera-hunter Graham Nash Podcast Episode: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/podcasts/photography/graham-nash-ace-photographer-digital-printing-pioneer-music-legend-the-bh Bruce Gilden Podcast Episode: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/podcasts/photography/closer-look-bruce-gilden End Credits: Founding Host: Allan Weitz Incoming Host: Derek Fahsbender Senior Creative Producer: Jill Waterman Senior Technical Producer: Mike Weinstein Executive Producer: Richard Stevens

Area/TopicCanada, BC, PaddleboardingPamela MartinOwnerBlue Jellyfish SUP AdventuresPam tried paddleboarding for the first time in 2010 and fell in love! She is now is a certified Paddle Canada SUP Basic & Advanced Flatwater Instructor, as well as a Coastal Touring 1 Instructor. ​Pam studied Marine Biology at the University of Guelph & Commercial Photography at Sheridan College. Her love of the water has led her to many aquatic pursuits - canoeing as a child, competitive sailing, sprint canoe/kayak racing and long-distance Outrigger Canoe racing before discovering the sport of Stand Up Paddleboarding.https://www.bluejellyfishsup.ca/SummaryPam Martin from Blue Jellyfish Stand Up Paddle Board Tours shares her journey in the adventure tourism industry. She has always been drawn to the water and pursued a career in marine biology. After discovering stand-up paddleboarding, she started incorporating it into her tours and adventures. When her business partner had to step away due to illness, Pam focused more on lessons and courses, but now she is bringing back the culinary and music components. She plans to expand her business to warm destinations like Costa Rica and Ireland, where she has already explored and paddled. The food scene in Ireland has evolved to include healthy farm-to-table options, and there is a strong emphasis on community and connection. In this conversation, Pam discusses the different types of paddleboards and their pros and cons. She explains that inflatable paddleboards are not a gimmick and that high-quality inflatables can feel just as solid as hardboards. Pam also mentions that inflatables are a great option for those who don't have storage space for a hardboard and are easy to travel with. She emphasizes that paddleboarding is a sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and fitness levels, and that it offers a low-impact workout that engages the core. Pam encourages people to give it a try and experience the magic of being out on the water.TakeawaysPam Martin's love for the water and the outdoors led her to pursue a career in adventure tourism, specifically in stand-up paddleboarding.She values the connection and community that can be created through adventure tourism experiences.After her business partner had to step away, Pam shifted her focus to lessons and courses, but she is now reintroducing the culinary and music components to her tours.Pam plans to expand her business to warm destinations like Costa Rica and Ireland, where she has already explored and paddled.The food scene in Ireland has evolved to include healthy farm-to-table options, and there is a strong emphasis on community and connection.

Have you noticed that a basic food photographer can have a thriving business and Have you also noticed that a brilliant photographer may not really be making enough in their business?This is more common than you might think. Photography talent is very different from business acumen. They're both completely different skill sets and just because we are good at photography doesn't automatically imply we'll have a profitable business.Yes, it begins with us falling in love with photography. That step is a must to be able to even start a business, but once we are in it, the real game begins. Just like any other business, the reality of running a photography business is more than meets the eye.It might look like all we have to do is take photos for clients, but that's not what a successful photography business is only about. In this week's episode, we continue our conversation with the NYC based Italian food photographer, Fracensco Sapienza, to learn more about the unseen realities of being a full-time food photographer.This episode is hot & fiery as we dive into pricing, scaling your business, how to make it bigger by working less, client work, pitching to big brands, how to meet the profit and success we dream of when we set up a business etc.If you're thinking of moving to full-time photography or wanting to grow the business you already have, become informed about the path ahead and empower yourself for success. Just because there are challenges, doesn't mean there aren't ways to overcome them. Being aware of those challenges and having realistic expectations is a large part of meeting success in our business. What looks easy on the outside is way more complicated on the inside. But there is no stopping if we decide that a photography business is what we want. Just like we build careers in the corporate world, it takes time and effort to build a career in the business world too.And just because we are artists, doesn't mean we are destined to live the image of the “starving artist”.Let's be successful business owners and passionate artists.Learning from someone else's struggles and being prepared for curveballs puts us in a strong position to live the dream we so badly desire.Submit a voice question HERE and be featured on the podcast  Read more at https://myfoodlens.comFollow Dyutima on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/dyutima_myfoodlens/ Show notes available https://myfoodlens.com/87-the-hidden-realities-of-being-a-professional-food-photographer-with-francesco-sapienza-part-2/Download free resourcesThe 5 steps to visual storytelling https://myfoodlens.ck.page/b0ea86cef6The 10-step photoshoot https://myfoodlens.com/the-10-step-photoshoot-guide/Write that pitch https://myfoodlens.ck.page/writethatpitch

Have you ever been in a photoshoot and felt something was off, but you couldn't quite figure it out?Most of the time, it's because of one big reason – light.But instead of tackling light, our tendency is usually to start fussing with props and backdrops and composition, thinking that is the problem when actually sometimes all it needs is a tiny tweak in the light.But here's the deal – to tweak the light, we've got to know what to tweak. We've got to understand light.In this week's podcast, I'm sharing all about one of the most dynamic lighting direction for food photography – Side Backlight.Yep, this kid of lighting is my absolute personal favourite and I share all the reasons why it is so powerful. In this episode I also talk about where this light might not be the best fit because that is part of understanding light. Not just where it works but also where it doesn't so that not only can we create this awesome light, but also know what to do if we get stuck.The lighting techniques for food photography are not the same as other forms of photography. A solid grasp of lighting in food photography not only streamlines our photoshoot workflow but also propels our skills forward. Understanding various lighting techniques allows us to harness the unique strengths of each type of light, tailoring them to create the mood we want and make the food hero look like a million bucks.Infact, it is the #1 skill every food photographer needs - a good grip on lighting techniques & the ability to troubleshoot when needed.  I personally think that side back light is a superhero, it is mine atleast & once you begin to use it, I'm certain this lighting style will totally wow you.Don't be at the mercy of available light. Create light the way you want and take your photography to the next-level.​ Read more at https://myfoodlens.com Follow Dyutima on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/dyutima_myfoodlens/Show notes available https://myfoodlens.com/86-side-back-light-when-to-use-avoid-it-in-food-photography/Download free resourcesThe 5 steps to visual storytelling https://myfoodlens.ck.page/b0ea86cef6The 10-step photoshoot https://myfoodlens.com/the-10-step-photoshoot-guide/Write that pitch https://myfoodlens.ck.page/writethatpitch

What do you think it takes to be a successful commercial food photographer?Excellent camera skills?High level of Creativity? Crazy passion for photography?Expensive photography equipment? What if I told you, none of the above are deal breakers to be a commercial photographer.It takes more than camera skills, creativity and passion to run a photography business.Most of us get into food photography because we love food or have a passion for photography but running a successful and profitable photography business is a completely different game and definitely not a piece of cake.In this week's podcast we are getting as raw and real as it gets.We are peeling back the layers & sharing the truth of being a commercial food photographer with our guest, Francesco Sapienza, a food photographer based in NYC.He's worked with huge names like the New York Times, Smithsonian Books, Rizzoli publications, Whole foods market etc. and is sharing how to build a photography business in a competitive market and the challenges to expect.We talk about the different kinds of projects under commercial food photography, how to transition from part-time to full-time photography, the secret ingredient to set up a business, how to add & price your services, rejection in business, whether to get an agent, how to market yourself in a competitive market etc.If you want a real peek into the opportunities and challenges of being a commercial food photographer, this episode is for you.  Being able to take a good photo is only a small part of a photography business. Photography is the learnable part but there are many more parts that go into making it a profitable business. Ever seen an iceberg? We see a small part of the iceberg above water but the majority is below the surface. A food photography business is exactly like that. What we see on social media or hear professionals talk about is only the part of the business above the surface. There is a large part we don't see or hear about. In this week's episode, we're pulling that large part of the iceberg out of the water so that you can see it in its entirety.Not to discourage you though but to prepare you. This episode is full of truth bombs that will help you in your journey and set you up for success. It will help you anticipate challenges, identify opportunities and embrace change better.Submit a voice question HERE and be featured on the podcast  Read more at https://myfoodlens.com Follow Dyutima on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/dyutima_myfoodlens Show notes available https://myfoodlens.com/Download free resourcesThe 5 steps to visual storytellingThe 10-step photoshoot Write that pitch

Tell me that you've never tried to find market rates for photography services.That you've never tried to google, “rates for food photography services.”That you've never been totally confused about the fee structure for photography.You have. Haven't you? Because that's what happens with all of us. When we are starting out there is a huge question mark that appears in our minds and it's all about money. Unfortunately, there are no benchmarks, no rules, no standards and no information available online or easily that we can use as a guide to price our work - which makes it crazy difficult to know whether we are doing it right or not. That's why, today we continue our conversation with Joanie Simon on everything about pricing and setting our rates. This episode is part 2 of the pricing series and it is more power packed than you can imagine. In this episode,  Joanie digs a little deeper and gets into the specifics of negotiating & increasing rates. We discuss how to know if you're overcharging or undercharging,  when to work for free and big mistakes to avoid when setting your rates.Oh and she shares an experience that completely changed the way she priced her work. This part will blow your mind.Setting your fee when you're starting out is as tough as increasing your fee as you move forward in your journey. At every stage of our creative business, we are posed with fee-related situations that require us to be strong and confident.As creative photographers, we just want to take pretty photos. Looking at rate cards or excel sheets or expenses isn't exactly our favorite part. But the truth is that, if we are not making money, we cannot call ourselves a business. Money is as important as everything else and dealing with it with confidence is essential. It is not easy but also not tough. This episode will  give you that boost and also a peek into the world of pricing in food photography.

What was the first question you had when you decided to start working with clients?“How much should I charge?”“How do I know what to charge?” “What should be the fee?”Something to this effect,  would you agree? Aren't pricing and rates one of the toughest aspects of setting up a food blogging or photography business? Fee is the number#1 reason we are overwhelmed & nervous when starting out as a business. It gives us sleepless nights.That's why I have our favorite food photographer, Joanie Simon joining us today to talk all about pricing your work as a food photographer. She walks us through all the different ways of setting our rates, how to approach pricing, which projects to take up, how to  talk to clients, what to include in a proposal and how to address overtime work. If you're a content creator working with clients or wish to work with clients, this episode is not to be missed.Money is an awkward topic, it is the toughest part to wrap around in your business. Joanie is a pro food photographer who has been in the market long enough to tell us the best way to approach pricing and the shortcut to doing it the right way because the last thing we want is the pressure of money to suck away the joy of creating.Good news is that business and creativity can co-exist and thrive too, as long as we know how to approach it. ​ Read more at https://myfoodlens.comFollow Dyutima on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/dyutima_myfoodlens/Show notes available at  https://myfoodlens.com/58-how-to-price-your-work-as-a-food-photographer-part-1Download free guide and workbook The 10-step photoshoot https://myfoodlens.com/the-10-step-photoshoot-guide/Write that pitch https://myfoodlens.ck.page/writethatpitch

Do you get nervous if you've to shoot with a new light or new space?What if you need to work with a food you've not handled before?Does any of that make you nervous? What happens is that, when we begin with food photography, we want to jump into all different photography techniques, big compositions, think about props, spend money on backdrops & we want to do it all quickly.We see magnificent photos on social media, get inspired and all we want is to be able to create like them.  And, we want to get there fast.But in this process, we often skip a few steps in our learning to fast track to creating “social-media” style photos. And that's where the cracks begin to appear,  the difference between those who are technically strong in their skills and those who are not.But what if there was a way to create those magnificent photos in a way that also made us focus on the technical aspects. That's why in this week's episode, I want to talk about a way for photographers to explore all the fun aspects of photography while working on strengthening technique and honing it.…by working on flatlay photography.I share why flatlays are different from other camera angles, how it can catapult your photography, and how you can utilize it to build specific skills as a photographer. Don't skip a step in your learning, instead make that step exciting and fun to learn. Flatlays offer a way to explore photography in a way that not only creates magnificent photos but also takes your skills to the next level.The good news is that honing your skills or practicing powerful photography techniques does not have to be serious and boring.Whether we are a beginner or have been photographing for a few years now, there are always areas that need work. Flatlays can be an effective way to pick out the skills that need extra attention and work on it. I share exactly what you can do and how you can take advantage of the power of flatlays so that no new situation or food phases you.

They reach out to you asking for your fee or rate card.Tell me what would you do - You don't have a rate card but send your portfolio instead. You have a rate card but don't feel confident sending it. What if it is too high or too low.The brand is so awesome that you offer to work for free. You just need their name in your portfolio.You immediately reply to the email with your rate card.You request to have a quick call before sending the rate card.Which option did you choose? If you chose anything except option e) then you might be losing on to some big opportunities. We know that not every project is the same. The way we photograph for one brand and the amount of work it takes is different from the other. Then how can our fee be the same, if the work and scope is not the same? That's why, I want to share this week's episode with you. I don't say this about all episodes, but I curated this episode after 5 years of learning on the job, getting kicked in the ***,  losing projects, being taken advantage of and feeling like a certain client did not deserve me.This week I'm sharing 3 top questions to ask a client on a discovery call.These questions have protected me in my business, the conversations on discovery calls have got me repeat clients, connections with potential clients have allowed me to expand my services to clients worldwide.  And that has all been by asking the right questions - upfront!If you want to streamline your client booking process, make sure your fee is suited to the project, feel confident about sending your rate card and walk away feeling pumped to work with a brand - this episode is totally for you!If there is a way to feel confident about handling client enquiries, having conversations that lead to long-term client relationships and offering a fee that works for you & brings profit - then follow that path.Running a business and making money is tough work. You never want to feel like you lost out or got a raw deal. And the only person who can prevent that from happening is you.Take the right action by asking the right questions that will not only help your business make money but also establish you as a pro & everyone wants to work with pro, right?   Read more at https://myfoodlens.com Follow Dyutima on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/dyutima_myfoodlens/Show notes available at https://myfoodlens.com/56-top-3-questions-to-ask-a-client-on-a-discovery-callDownload my free client pitch workbook HERE

What would happen if instagram closed down tomorrow?And facebook too?How would you share your work?Where would potential clients find you? Would you still be able to connect with a community of like-minded creators?And let's say instagram didn't close down, even then, what if you owned a platform that was stable and not affected by algorithm changes.This week I'm joined by podcaster & food blogger turned website developer at Grace and Vine Studios, Madison Wetherill who shares all about websites for food bloggers and photographers.Having a website is one thing but having an effective website that brings clients and builds a community, is another. Madison shares the benefits of a website, how to build an effective one, what brings clients to our site, creates a beautiful user experience  and design considerations to keep in mind.As visual creators we have the advantage of taking our website appeal up a notch with our  powerful photos or videos that can potentially double entice an audience. It is natural to what we create. So, why not make use of it? Websites aren't just for professionals. A website is YOUR space to showcase YOUR work. Whether you're a hobbyist , professional photographer, food blogger, or any content creator, you need a website, a space that is truly your own.  The power of a website has become diluted in today's world of social media but that is what makes it even more important, even more essential.Do you have a website yet or looking to create one? ​ Read more at https://myfoodlens.com Follow Dyutima on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/dyutima_myfoodlens/ Show notes available at https://myfoodlens.com/55-how-to-attract-clients-and-build-a-community-with-a-website

Creating and sustaining a successful photo career is no easy feat. To help aspiring young imagemakers acquire the needed creative concepts and business skills, two New York-based organizations—ASMP NY and BKC—have teamed up to offer the innovative mentorship, education, and industry immersion program The Bridge. Open to individuals from 18- to 26-years-old, The Bridge embraces diversity and offers opportunity to underserved communities, regardless of formal photography experience. Best of all, this four-month, real world program is free to accepted students. We first learned about The Bridge during a chat with program co-founder Liam Alexander for the show ASMP-NY and the Future of Photo Trade Organizations in February 2022. Since the program's second year recently wrapped with a gallery exhibition in Brooklyn, and plans are in the works to expand The Bridge to other ASMP chapters in 2023, we wanted to learn more about this valuable initiative in advance of the next application window this spring. For this week's podcast, we're joined by Alexander, who sheds light on The Bridge program's inner workings and educational goals during the first half of the show. After a break, we speak with 2022 Bridge graduate Eli Edwards, who describes what he learned through the program, and the resulting shift in the pictures he makes, as well as in his creative point of view. To discover how to futureproof your career and learn how to apply for this free program, make sure to listen in!
