9 to 5 Photographer

#005 - Like so many of us, Guy Collier had a  'regular' job before dipping a toe in the water of wedding photographer. After going full-time while also balancing family life (with pets!) Guy is now a successful business owner and loving having made the transition.

One of the things we discuss in this podcast is the importance of creating a style but then sticking with it, even when we see so many other styles from other photographers around us.

#004 - Stuart Beeby moved across to the US six years ago when his wife relocated there for work. Deciding to set up his own photography and film-making business after arriving, Stuart started his career with a contact list of zero, a long way from home and having to build things up from scratch.

Fast-forward to 2021 and Stuart is killing it (as they say over there). In this episode he explains how he grew the business with some smart marketing tactics that you could swipe and deploy yourself.

In this podcast we explore what it's like to be a busy photographer and why it's so important to put yourself in your clients' shoes from time to time.

#002 - In this episode we have special guest Xander Casey, one of the country's leading wedding photographers who shoots at some of the most prestigious venues in Central London.
