After that first meeting, I booked 18 additional weddings with her over the next seven years. While chance brought us together initially, Kara and I continued to work together. That one relationship forever altered the course of my career. My business shifted in 2012 when one of my brides (who had found me on the blog Grey Likes Weddings) also hired a wedding planner, Kara Delay with Love This Day Events. At the time, all of my clients were coming from personal connections, wedding blogs, Google and Facebook. In 2011, I had zero inquires from professional referrals. When running my metrics, I noticed that 100 percent of my 2019 bookings came from professional referrals, with 80 percent from wedding planners and 20 percent from other wedding photographers.īut it wasn’t always this way for me. So how can you distinguish yourself, cut through the noise and fill your calendar with dream clients? A collaboration between 5280 Events and Siloh Floral Artistry, and the final images strongly represent my brand’s aesthetic. While anyone can say they are a pro photographer, not everyone can book themselves solid year after year. And it’s true-with the barriers to entry at an all-time low, the market is overflowing. They say that the market is more saturated than ever before. I constantly hear photographers talk about how they are not booking nearly as many clients as in previous years.
