While I was researching for that blog, some of the photographers I spoke with mentioned additional directories or listings that are free or free-ish.

  5. Call me, maybe.

    2019-09-08 20:50:27 UTC

    Quick reminder: make it easy for people to contact you. Something I see with many of my clients is that they don’t post their contact info on their websites or social media pages. I mean, do you even want a job? ;) In the past, many of us (guilty!) have…

  11. Narrow Your Focus

    2018-05-24 20:12:47 UTC

    The number one challenge my clients present to me is that they are trying to be too many things for too many people. I see so many photographers that consider themselves portrait photographers, event photographers, fashion photographers, travel photographers, and so on. Narrowing your focus is not only easier on…
