It is easier than ever to take, create, or edit a pretty picture; none of those things set us apart as professional photographers to any great degree. So how can we set ourselves apart from our competition when potential clients are scrolling through countless photographers' social media accounts trying to select the best option?

As Victoria Saint Martin shares with us in episode 581 of the Bokeh Podcast, experience is EVERYTHING if we want to create a business that will last! From the first interaction a potential client has with your brand until well after the event, photographers set the tone when creating a memorable experience for their clients. Listen in as she shares the 5 main strategies she implements for doing just that!
