I’ll look at yours if you look at mine!

I’ve got a few emails recently from photographers just complimenting my work. That’s awesome and nothing feels better than to get feedback from fellow photographers in the area. In this industry, there are a few ways to really excel. If you can market yourself really well you’re golden, and by networking with people. Don’t consider everyone in your area to be “competition”, sure you are both fighting for bookings but in the big picture there are thousands of people getting married every year. That’s lots to go around. By connecting with those other photographers you are getting your name out there, having them send clients your way and vice versa. Who knows when you might need an extra set of hands at a wedding, wouldn’t it be nice to know you have a few backups? I never like to stop learning, if I can pick up a few things from someone else to make my shooting or workflow faster that’s great and if I can give a few tips even better. I’m constantly reading blogs but never leaving feedback, but I should be. If you’re reading this, comment or leave me a message. It doesn’t matter if you’re not a photographer, if you’re a lawn cutter in the summer, I want to hear from you. Let’s use the resources and knowledge we have and share it, it will only make us better in the future!

Posts are always better with a picture, talk to you soon!
