On this week's episode I invited Jonathan Mank and his wife, Donna back onto the show to discuss the sales process. We talk about what to show, the importance of branding and curation. Daiga tells us about the one photo which will lose you customers. Jonathan shares with us the one thing he did which improved his conversion rate instantly and much much more.

I had so much fun on this weeks episode and think everyone will find it informative.

This week, I chat with Laura, who recently shadowed me at a recent wedding and also to build her portfolio. Laura shares her journey so far about how she’s created opportunities which might help others on a similar journey.

This episode is essential for anyone looking to build relationships with wedding venues and get on the coveted recommended supplier lists!

Listen to my first round table with three good photography friends of mine. We chat about how we're finding this year. We open up honestly about how our bookings are doing. What's working well and what perhaps is not.

Special thanks to Matt Trott, Adam Lowdnes and Marie Anson for sharing their time & expertise with everyone and being so open and honest with their information.

I hope everyone finds this episode interesting.

We're back! After a short break, on this weeks episode. Daiga & I talk about our pet peeves. Things that wedding photographers get irrationally annoyed about. From getting fed to churches that treat us like the devil. Listen and see how many you can identify with!

On this weeks episode I have the pleasure of chatting to Adam Johnson & Steve Walker about The Federation of Wedding Photographers and Filmmakers.

A brand new organisation who are promoting community in a non-competitive and non-judgemental way. They plan lots of networking opportunities, help, mentoring and workshops. All designed to help videographers and photographers succeed in today's market.

In order to succeed at wedding photography we have to offer a compelling service to our customers. Yet few of us seem to actually ask our customers: "What was important for you? Why did you make the decisions you did?"

So in this weeks episide, I interview another ex-bride of mine so you can hear exactly what was important and what was not.

I hope the information helps you decide how you can attract your ideal customer too.

On this weeks episode I've had the pleasure of talking to Kirsty about the mistakes we've made in our wedding photography career's and the lessons we've learned from them. Some of them have cost us literally thousands of pounds!
