It's not what's in your photography portfolio... it's what's MISSING from your PORTFOLIO.

What's MISSING is why people aren't hiring you to be their wedding or family photographer.

I just finished up a month of free photography portfolio reviews with photographers from all walks of life and stage of career and two things were blindingly apparent.

And it's those two things that will elevate your portfolio beyond the vast and endless sea of photographers.

Listen closely to this episode to find out what's missing, and how it will improve your business.

Fear of failure is the bane of many a creative, and us wedding photographers are no different.

Alan is a wedding photographer based in Cornwall, UK – the part of England that’s ‘supposed’ to see some sunshine. As well as shooting his own weddings, his passion for the documentary side of what we do led him to create This is Reportage, the worldwide community and awards-body celebrating the art of natural, un-posed coverage, and, later, the documentary family photography version, “This is Reportage: Family”. He also thoroughly enjoys teaching, and has run 27 of his own workshops throughout Europe – and couldn’t avoid the lure of the pun by titling his workshop ‘Law School’.

How to find your people, so you can build a sustainable photography business (Insights from the Conversation with John Dolan)

From my refreshing conversation with John Dolan, I’ve picked out two encouraging principles that, when diligently practiced, will make a HUGE difference in the way we manage our photography businesses. 

The first is the idea that questions are more important than answers, and the second is knowing who your people are. Think: ideal client avatars, but less avatar and more real people ;) 

Join me as we explore these two ideas. You’ll see how they will empower you to build a sustainable and profitable photography business based on working with your true people, your raving fans, all the while establishing your authenticity both in art and business. 

I also shared that I’m doing a limited-time discount on my flagship group coaching program, Storyteller’s School. You’ll save $500 if you sign up before December 31!

Kirsten Lewis is the mother of documentary family photography, but she was first a photojournalist. And before that, an artist. And she remains one, despite years in commercial photography working for clients.

She brings a unique perspective to how we create and promote our art.

In this episode of the Tilt and Shift photography business podcast, we talk about the intersection of art, ego, business longevity and just how damn powerful we actually are.

Heads up--there's a content warning and a few swears in this one.

Today's episode is three coaching tips inspired by photographer Huy Nguyen's process in building a business:

We define success on our own terms, and why that matters to our photography business' longevity. We find a way to avoid comparison syndrome by deliberating choosing to stand out in our photography style and brand. We learn the process of doing things differently, even when we're uncomfortable, to spark creativity and build confidence in your photography.

It's hard--really hard--not to take it personally when someone doesn't respond to our photography the way we hope they will. We often feel like failures.

Join me as I talk about failure with Huy Nguyen, a photojournalist, the founder of internationally renowned photographers directory Fearless Photographers and the esteemed Foundation Workshops.

Huy's shares his mindset around how to enjoy the process of creating rather than the risk of failing.

And he also gives us a peek into what's possible for photographers when we open our minds enough to ask ourselves one VERY big question.

Today's episode is three coaching tips inspired by photographer Erika Mann's own tilt and shifts in perspectives on her art, life and business:

We break down how to become a better photographer through practicing deeper observation. We dig into WHY you are a photographer and how to tap into that why to improve your photography style and brand. We also learn how stop caring about whether people like you, so you can grow raving fans instead of tepid onlookers.

Photographers (and creatives) often talk about having a calling, but for a lot of us, that's not true.

Many photographers, including Erika Mann (half of internationally renowned wedding photographers and educators Two Mann Studios), come to photography via other means--a desire to make money.

In this episode of the Tilt and Shift photography business podcast, we talk about the intersection of ambition, creativity, lifestyle, and the pursuit of what calls to us, while building a thriving photography business.

Heads up--there's a few swears in this one.

Fear often feels like it's IN us. But it doesn't have to be.

On this inaugural episode of the Tilt and Shift Photography Business podcast, I share a HUGE shift for me in my photography business about inborn fears and questionable advice regarding my chosen path, that helped reset my route to become the multi award-winning photographer and coach you're hearing today.

And I'm going to guess fear is something you've struggled with, too... whether you know it or not :)

Grab your journal or notebook and get ready to ask yourself some very big questions about you, your photography business and your life. We'll talk about how to get comfortable with discomfort, how to expand your comfort zone and why we need to do that as photographers, creatives and business people.
