Is the Market Slowing Down? Here’s What I’m Doing About It

19 minutes

In this solo episode, Marie shares an honest look at what’s happening in today’s photography market and why things might feel slower, even if you’re still booking.

Between decision fatigue, rising costs, and everything going on in the world, clients are taking longer to book and being more selective. The good news? You’re not doing anything wrong. The market is just shifting.

What I’m Focusing On Right Now

Instead of overhauling everything, Marie is making small, intentional changes:

Building local relationships through networking, collaborations, and community involvement

Reaching out to past clients with personalized emails to get sessions on the calendar

Using memberships to create repeat bookings and more consistent income

Increasing revenue per client by offering artwork and upgrades

Simplifying inquiries by testing quicker, easier ways to respond

The Bottom Line

This is a season of adjustment, not failure.

Marketing is evolving, and the photographers who stay visible, connected, and adaptable are the ones who will come out stronger.

Keep going. You’re closer than you think.
