www.photobizcoach.com PhotoBiz Coach Beate ask a tough question about whether or not you should even stay in the photography industry. During tough economic times making hard decisions is essential. Not every digital photographer will find enough clients to make it. You need to stay focused and concentrate on the business aspects that are under your control. Most importantly is very important to stay away from negative people and groups that have nothing good to say. Do what you have control over – your own abilities. Learn the business and triple your efforts. Read the blog at www.PhotoBizCoach.com or get more free photography info at www.stockphotographybusinesssecrets.com and www.photobizsystem.com.

I think your video is very good from a general sales standpoint. Ive been in the industry for 32 years, have shot over 2000 weddings personally. In the absence of value, consumers default to price. Unfortunately, photography has shifted in the consumers eyes from a art/service to a commodity which in their eyes is easily comparable. yes there is a difference in photo styles/personalities however many an opportunity never gets past a general search based on price. Cruel but true.

As someone who works in the event industry I can tell you that your comment about wedding photographers simply showing up and clicking a button at a wedding couldn’t be further from the truth. There are hundreds of hours that go into the editing, prepping submissions to publications, meetings with couples, networking, establishing and maintaining a brand. Not to mention the stress involved in capturing one of the most important days of someone’s life flawlessly.

- Really? I might be hearing this wrong but it sounds like wedding photography is showing up and clicking a button. Too funny.

It’s not hard work for those who are just showing up at weddings clicking a button. That’s the sad truth.
