I had no idea how to price myself back when I first began photographing weddings and couples. The only reasonable thing I knew to do was to research competitor's prices! Maybe you can relate? But eventually I had a few realizations... Let's get into it!

15 October 2025, 8:00 am - 32 minutes 49 secondsPhotography is not "solving client problems." It's this...
Today's episode stems from a question that I recently got asked on a coaching call. A student asked how to let a potential client know that they absolutely NEED them (the photographer) to solve their (the client's) problems. But as I got to thinking, that might actually be the wrong question... Let's unpack this in today's episode!
