5 Things I’d Do If I was starting a photography business in 2024

This is all great advice thank you! 🙏

Thank you so much for this! I had a headshot photography business but shut it down during the pandemic. I am just now opening it back up again and am trying to catch up. I have also moved to a new state and I love your suggestion about reaching out to local non profits.

All great guidance! I appreciate the openness and sharing of hard-earned knowledge.

When building a photography business, it is important to know what you want. Most photographers start a business because they want more freedom in their lives and to be their own boss. A client-based business where you trade hours for money has a cap. At some point, there is no way to grow further simply because there are no more hours in the day. Photographers tend to forget they have a skill (other than just taking photos) that many people are asking for. Education, entertainment, and edutainment are a few examples. Many of these business models are easy to scale.

I found this content helpful. Thanks for taking the time to create it ✌🏽

Thank you so much for the information. I am an inspiring photographer and need to know the basics. I am thinking about attending classes to improve my work for a portfolio. I would love to share some of my photography with you, to get advice from a professional standpoint! If that's ok. If not I completely understand!
