Ahhhh, sweet, sweet photography. There is simply nothing better than getting behind the lens each and every day. ...
But it’s not always straight-forward. There are many tips and tricks that get engagement, turn followers into clients, and using photography to not only get likes but to drive your bottom line.
Which is why I am SO excited about today’s episode where I am digging into the real life, behind the scenes those instagram photos. This is another session of Ask Jenna Anything dedicated SOLELY to one topic: photography! Today I am answering YOUR most raw, real-life questions about photography. Ready to attract your dream clients, fill your calendar, and get your best photos yet?! Let's do it!
Tune in to hear me answer these questions below!
Christine D: Can I photographer make 6 figures by NOT selling educational classes and such?
Shannon R: How do you convince clients to hire your associate photogs instead of you?
Kari G: I would love to hear more about your Photography...what resources did you use when you were first learning, what tips or recommendations do you have for new photographers?
Elizabeth M: I would love to hear more background on the educational/courses side of your business... What was your first ever course? How did the launch go? Did you build up an audience via your photography business to launch to initially? :) Really just ANY advice about transitioning a business from client work to also offering education on your industry!
Starr M: I want to know more about coping with competition and copycatting. I live in a small town and notice that everyone in the creative industry copies. I live in a community of 1200 and find alot of copycatting going on with other photographers in the industry. If I put out a wood box for my clients, then so does everyone else. If I add an item to my pricelist, so do they. If I change all my wedding packages to 8 hours so do they. I have been just looking the other way, supporting them and being nice and focusing on the next thing for myself...should I keep doing this, or what?
Meredith G: know we talk a bunch about your business but i would love to get back to the genesis of it all, how photography makes you feel how you've changed as a photographer.
Ashley R: -Information about second photographers(how much to pay them, what to expect of them)?
Ashely R: -When should photographers raise their prices?
Brooke J: How did you book 25 weddings in one year? What does serving your bride and groom look like? I'm so interested in hearing more about your photography business growth. I'm currently at a place where I built up my photography business doing all kinds of shoots since 2014 but I have been working full time as a teacher. I'm feeling led to leave my job so I resigned and am now returning to photography full time but focusing on families and weddings. I would love to grow my clients and get my name out there for more weddings.
Shannon K: What freebies can different groups offer? By different groups I mean wedding planners, cake artists, florists, non wedding photography - just an idea or suggestion I get so hung up on what to give as a freebie.
Sandy S: How to book destination weddings/elopements
Mancy C: Do you suggest Styled shoots for photographers to build portfolios?! Any and all details on styled shoots appreciated!
Kari G: I would love to hear more about your Photography...what resources did you use when you were first learning, what tips or recommendations do you have for new photographers? THANK YOU for being you and sharing so much with us!!! You inspire me to keep pushing forward every day!!
Cassie Pannier I'm a wedding calligrapher/stationer, second shooter in training, and starting a wedding creative VA business... I just love the wedding industry in general, I guess. My question is geared more towards the VA side of things, but have you ever "cold-emailed" dream clients in hopes that they would book you? And as I'm sure you receive cold emails all the time... What are some examples of what has worked for you as the recipient of these emails?
goodvibesricci Will you ever have a course on how to be an amazing photographer like you! Like for beginners, your tips on how to be a productive photographer following the bride and groom around without getting in the way but also being there enough to get those intimate shots.. I know you have a course with brit + co, which I am buying Asap but something like photography on location 101 from your prospective would be amazing.

Wanger says, I am so glad to hear this
I guess I've been so inspired by your content to start taking photography more seriously and wood.
Really love to hear the story from the three hundred dollar craigslist cameras, six figures and beyond now, when I first
Did I had no ambitions of becoming a photographer? I didn't really think I would ever be an entrepreneur but
I found myself in a corporate job that I didn't really love, I loved being good at things I loved moving up this latter
but please do realise, like I don't wanna keep climbing I want to spend. The rest of my life
climbing, when all it looks like, was more work more time away from my husband more
hours on the road, and so I found that
I was creative. I just wasn't using that any more as working ten hours a day. I recently found
this document on my computer that I wrote about how thankful I was by it was about when I was working in my
office in how tired I was in stressed. I wasn't. It brought me right back to that in so I actually bought a camera, because I wanted to be creative, again I'd zero desires to become of the tiger. For I wanted to document arse.
Ages of life, as we are planning our wedding in going through that process and not to
and into a business, so I started taking pay
sure? I started putting myself out there and just putting my pictures out there without any marketing without any pitches.
And I realize all. Maybe I should start a blog, and so I started a free word. Press blog started putting set out there and I realize I really like,
as an Andrews Drew's brother, got married in Jamaica and they could either opt for a resort photographer, which was an additional fee or they
you. I just bought this camera, so they asked if I would take pictures that their wedding and I was so excited about it- I really want,
to do a good job. I have no clue what I was doing, but I said yes and from there
I was head over heels in love with photography, so I share their wedding images and then that summer, a few of my friends got married, and I asked if I could
give. You pictures that their weddings and they of course said yes answered
they started building this little portfolio at had three weddings and they were all done for just a few hundred dollars by
I knew that I could mark it myself, and so my blog slowly turned.
What website the website turned into
advertising that advertising turned into bookings and
I'm just so excited to share the story of how I books twenty five clients in my first year, which you heard an episode, one, forty one
and so you didn't listen to that show had on back. To that end,
in tune into this one, because it's gonna walk you through exactly how I did that.
Jade chasseurs eyes from someone just starting out. How did you get that first session? Did you ask a friend give them a discount rates that you could build up a fort folio? I'm just.
On where to start in order to break into the industry, so like ice,
I didn't necessarily reach out to people be blood started reaching out to me. I remember one of my friends booked a boot
our session and I got paid a hundred and fifty dollars I felt so rich. I was so excited which, looking back now I dinner
break. Even when you calculate taxes in the expenses and everything bite once answer
putting things out there and just showing that I was shooting more. I started to get more attention
of course, I shot like my family and friends for free, because I needed to get experience to get images by
I actually started booking wedding clients pretty quickly? I think that I was gutsy enough to just go for it.
I knew that I had b. I could look at something in a magazine or on a blog and figure out how to emulate that, and I think that that was what drew me to brides. As I had these beautiful,
this is because I studied posing then really
learn how to communicate indirect people in a way that brought out these images.
So. Maybe I wasn't shooting in manual. Maybe I didn't Emma editing down. Pat I'd only ones hawk about my old editing sales by it. I think that its important, if you're, just starting out a start, to bring your camera with you two places start to ask people if you can take a view for
of them start step into that role as a photographer and
Necessarily worry about the money because of your just beginning. You likely
or even a licence, business yeah you're not operating as a standard business. Maybe you just trying to build up a facebook page and before you charge a penny, you can build up. This
portfolio so that when you start charging you can become too legit to quit and file all of this
things that you need to in order to run in actual business cayley
George asked. What are your tips for Iphone Photography? Do you have any favorite editing acts so
we. I actually have this awesome freebie, where I share my favorite apps double check the link right now, because we want to make sure I send you to the right place. But if you go to Jenin, could your dotcom slash, apps? You can see my five favorite upset. I used in my Iphone
sometimes for Ivan Photography wine. This is so silly but clean off your camera before you shoot anything,
Cameras are so dirty on our phones. I hate to even think about what's on them, but why did off before you take any photos? I love using vis. Go in,
after lighter added on my phone. But the biggest thing is just fine.
In the light and then removing distractions? I think a lot of times are
Voters are quick and blurry and their real life, and I love that about it. But if you just take off
one extra seconds. May people turn into the lie or to make sure that the lighting is a
little bit more appealing makin totally help and then another
is just shooting in natural light. It is so funny the difference it makes from natural light too
artificial lie in so whenever I
he's my Iphone for Photography Year for Instagram stories or whatever that looks like a Maoist trying to do at while others, beautiful lighting and that's not. I was real life, but hey it totally helps shall be goulds. Men says what are the vast risks? You took
building your photography business. So I shared a lot about the first things I did when I started my business back in episode, one forty one, but I think that some in the risk that I took one
I hired a graphic designer student to create a
Oh go any new. The importance of branding right off the bat I went to school for p,
and for business administrations are not necessarily marketing, but I loved branding. I was so drawn to die. I was drawn to package,
in their emotions, a brain can a man. So I spent a cup
wonder dollars. I got some logos made that really,
I'll just sat me apart and make me look waymore legit and I probably wise. I also
we invested in advertising and if I can go back, I would switch investment into education because advertising is short lived and it's really hard to measure the effectiveness, whereas if I would have learned how to market myself for free will
is so much more available than when I was starting. I feel like. I would have created more sustainable system
from the beginning and not relied on traditional advertising. I realize like, if I may
willing to invest in myself. Then why should anyone else be willing to invest in me, so that was a huge risk?
I also started filling up my calendar wise still working my ninety five without being sure like. Am I really going to be able to make this leap as is actually going to happen and
I take that chance and I said that big goal that I wanted to match my corporate salary and then I went out at full speed ahead thing. Another risk is just working from
both ends, I mean I was working. Tenor
days and then going home unplugging away at this business that I wanted to build, and so I know all about side hustles and I did it
so long and
I really understood that if I wanted to build a business that would last that would not fail. I had
really sat up way is that I could work effectively because I didn't have all the time in the world. I was scrappy, areas really scrap you and I started, and I'm really thankful for that. Kelsey Smite says
How do you grow a six figure business in a small town, a rural area? I live in a town of about two thousand people and this
Hunting ones are five to ten thousand, obviously not as any potential clients and bookings due to population. Therefore, I
like. I not is much potential to make six figures I dream of doing.
Destination warnings in the future, but I dont think its realistic for me in the next five years. First, things
where's cows. We have to silence the inner mean girl, that's telling you what's realistic and what's not, you already are craftiness dialogue, saying that
it's not possible for you to make six figures or launch a destination wedding business and guess what your brain is a very powerful thing, and so I would love to rephrase
that question entirely with
the limiting beliefs removed. I think you ve already made up your mind that you just can't do it again
a change that now. To give you some perspective, I launched my business. While we lived in a village of twelve hundred people,
I didn't know a single soul and we had just moved there. We do not have any free
and in the area I do not have any connections or any inside scoop into the wedding industry, and so when I read that
or in a town, two thousand, unlike sister, you got population there, but here's the thing in it
seven years that I've shot over a hundred and twenty five weddings. I've never work
and two shot a wedding in the town I live in, because they're not wear, my people are, and it sounds like you think, your people aren't there either
now wherever you live, I am sure that there is a larger city within one to two hours from you and that
where you need to be marketing. I
never once marketed to Johnson Creek Wisconsin, not once I market AIDS.
Madison in Milwaukee. Both of them are about an hour away, and that is where I found my people
now. For me, it was incredible because I built this six figure business within three years living in this,
tiny little town where I didn't know single saw, but I did it because
as I knew where my people were, and I made it apparent that I was willing to go to them, sir,
drive more for consultations. Yes, I do
I've more on wedding days, but it was entirely worth it because I was able to find people that we're going to support my dreams
that loved my style and that believed that I was worth every single penny when it comes
doing destination weddings now my business, I think all of our inquiries are pretty much destination weddings and you just
have to start travelling in shooting. While you travel and people see that you're willing to do that and you market to those people, and so
all comes down to that marketing message, but first things first calls you have to remove the
limiting believes that you, ve, put inside of your brain,
generally story, this amazing Jenna, my middle name,
this leads to you and my last name was shallow rude. So we have the same initials. She says
I have to know more about your approach during a sash and Eu Guide couples and opposes you of any tricks of your sleeve that are bound to get a good reaction. John. I love this question
is posing is so important. I have a full, posing I'd with twenty five different poses a shop jenna. Could your dot com
It literally walk sees you all the queues that I have all the ways that I direct my couples, the things that I say to them to get them to fall into.
Those poses, so you can get your hands on
add shop, Jenna culture. But to answer your question: I think that
one of the hardest things about posing is just starting. I think a lot of couples feel so anxious and nervous and their wondering if they're going to feel good and look good during their session in so first things. First,
I give them permission to feel uncomfortable and awkward, and I tell them I don't
but to be tire banks? I want you to feel like you're,
solves, and I know it's gonna take a little bit so I'm in ITALY. The first fifty photos I take. These are just practice shots for you to get into the swing.
Things and by the end of it you're gonna, be
again out and feeling so good in front of my camera. Gonna forget that I'm here and so just
Let them know that you don't expect these whimsical poses from them and that you understand that their likely feeling uncomfortable really gives them a deep sigh of
leave, and then I saw the guy hey, I'm not going to emasculate you. I know that you don't wanna, be made fun of value guy friends, I want Regis feel like yourself, but let me tell you this beautiful
lady. She is the centre of attention for the shoot, an you are her leading man, and so I want them to know like
I'm not gonna, make you feel like a goofball or
like someone you're, not I want for you to just have fun with this and to be yourselves and so the lad.
Thing that I would encourage you to do is ask them questions ahead of time, if ever favorite song or a funny joke that would make the other person laugh or they have funny things. They can win
prior to each other during the session, and I
get that really helps ease people into it and help them understand that the job opposing is on me. They just have to show
and be willing to give it their best shot. Kathleen Curto says
First of all, I do not wait for this episode. I really struggle is trying to do everything social media building, freebies blogging,
I'm seeing more engagement on social media, but I still feel, like my clients, aren't Roland in like I'd like you to focus
energy on one area. What would it be so gasoline I hear
you, I think one of the hardest part about being a photographer is our love or photography is so strong. Yet we find
our days filled with everything but taking photos, and so what I would
focus on is really creating a brands. I'm not going to tell you to focus on Instagram are focused on Facebook or one specific platform by what I think is so hard about the photography industry. These days
is figuring out how to stand out in one of the biggest problems? Is that we're all following our peers, nor all seeing these beautiful pictures?
people on mounds and waterfalls, and all these things, and like I'm sitting here in the Middle Wisconsin me, unlike our at we got cornfields. Let's do this, and so I had to be really really cognisant of who I was following on line because I didn't want it to impact
my style and who I am so
what I would focus on your energy on Kathleen is figuring out what sites you apart,
that's likely you and vigorous
how to share that with people, because people need to follow up with you in order to understand the photos you're taking and so when,
who can focus on a brand that speaks directly to your ideal clients without having to feel like you need to speaker, impress your peers or that you have to be so
when you're not. You
are going to attract the right people and those clients will roll in
for so long I just tried to blend in because I felt like a fraud I felt like somebody was going to say. I know you don't know what you're doing, and so I looked at everyone else's.
Websites in a major mine looked just like theirs, and the thing is is that our climate
cannot establish the difference between us and photographers X, Y and Z, and so you have to figure out. How do I stand
in that's likely, sharing more of you and creating the
true bran. That has a personality, because our personality is going to reach your clients and so stop
looking at what everyone else is doing, start figuring out how you can find your voice and not personality online
then really focus on posting images that you want your ideal clients to see themselves in, maybe our clients dome connect with mountain tops and waterfalls, even other beautiful view.
For images, maybe they're more hanging out on the couch or running down the street of mainstream or whatever that looks like and so really focus on posting in sharing stories and images that your dream, clients?

Answer weekly Catherine Elizabeth, a frugal size. I would love to hear about your client experience.
It's from first inquiry to wedding gallery delivery and beyond. I have work.
That includes sending welcome gifts and bits of information throughout the process, but I feel like I could offer more. I just don't know why sue Catherine,
I talk a lot about client experience back in Bonnie, back tiaras episode. We talk about how to give clients a great experience and is not just about sinning pretty gifts in the mail, though that is an awesome touch. I think that gesture
looking in saying how are you doing? Do you need anything as one of the best ways that you can reach out and then this
in part, is really following through after you shot their session, so I feel like a lot of photography. First I'll take the victors
enough, the gallery and then they never really follow up. But I think that that is where the real magic happens.
Making sure that they were able to download their images, making sure that their printing, their photos, making sure
if they want albums, they know it's. A process looks like just checking
and being a friend to them, and so
I would challenge you to not just think about the client experience from the very beginning, but thinking about how you can no longer that experience and stay in touch with the people that you ve served and then also
them a chance to share their story. I think that a lot of times we as photographers like
to pick one shot. We talk a little bit about our clients, but when you can say
really care about you and your journey in your story. It can absolutely get other people to see like you care you're, not just ain't it for pretty pictures. You genuinely care about the people
Darcy Simone Domain, you as says genetic adjure, I'm curious. Did you build your photography empire before you are known as a marketing guru, or did it go hand in hand? If you did do it before, if you could go back, what would you do?
so I absolutely started my career as of tug refer and, of course I was gonna marketing because they think it's just something innate in sending. That inspires mean I'm excited about, but I.
They realize I had anything special until I was sitting down with a super, talented photographer. We were
telling me about how she was going back interviewing and updating her resume because she could.
Make it as a wedding photographer and I looked at her photos and they were insanely good. I wondered why am I doing differently? I was making six figures ever
I was making six figures. Everything had come pretty easy to me. I was lost
what I was up to answer
That's when I started to realize I'm doing things differently and I have systems in place that don't overwhelm me, and so I think what happens is photographers are so creative
that they're so excited about the creative stuff, but they failed to create sustainable systems when it comes to marketing. So if I could do anything different areas,
I understand that I am a unique selling proposition in that. I am worthy of doing this and calling this a courier, and so I think that my first two to three years of being a photographer, I just felt like a free.
They felt like a fake and I was so consumed by that feeling that I
didn't understand how unique I was and how I could serve clients in a way that other people could it, and so
You can start to what your guard down and understand you dont have to have a degree, its awesome, if you do, but you don't have to- and you can be self tat in self made him be successful. I think tat I would have harnesses
power of owning and stepping into the person than I am and that could have made a really.
Difference for me, and so that's the only thing I would have done differently by yes, they absolutely went hand in hand,
I think the only reason why I was able to build a six figure photography business so soon was because I was able to
understand the importance of care
eating a brand and really, speaking to my dream, clients, jolly.
Amor size. What courses did you take to learn, photography and editing
So when I started, I never took any courses, I never attended any workshops. I never did anything online and a kind of wish I would have, but I am happy that I let myself learn the art on my own
oh learning the business side from at the, and so
What I see happen is that the tiger furs become so consumed with the art side of things which I think is beautiful, but I also think it can
be an innate thing, and so what is it
you're staying is that I love to teach the business side of things because so
artists are already know the art, they feel the art they see the hour, and I think that that's an important piece of the puzzle that you need
to understand and grow on your own, whereas I think the business
stuff, is this stuff that holds people up so much more, and so
That's why I'm so excited about these live trainings that are coming up a photo, webinar dot com, I'm in a cheese either
three ways? You can fill your photography calendar and I'm so excited about that, because I've created this system that I've impulse
ended in over a thousand other photographers businesses and
instead of taking courses on learning the art side of things. I think you have that within you, but I think it is important to learn the bill.
Inside of things so that you can make a living doing the arts. Our rights
next question is Kelsey smite I
loved. You know four ways for photographers to grow. Their email list opt in ideas for photographers and what to send subscribers besides a monthly newsletter. This is an
the question, I think a lot of creative struggle with us. As a photographer, you likely get asked a lot. Of course
and then your likely leading your clients through the same things over and over and over again, whether session, Pratt or the importance of timing or lighting, or your
helping them to plan a schedule or you're helping them plan their outfit, sir. So many different ways you can grow your email list and serve these people before
even know that they need your services. And so I want you to think what kind of questions you get or what kind of things are you walking your clients through that you ve already created that could serve other people at the end,
the day I can not serve every single bride, but I've content that can, and why would I hold that to myself? Why would I do not share that if it could help them out in their planning process?
over me, things I'd ten ways to choose your wedding photographer twenty questions to ask of geographer before hiring them or things to look.
Or when choosing a ways to create the perfect wedding day schedule or should you do offer
like or not, or how can you
use your wedding photos after you get them
there are so many different ways, but you likely get asked a lot of questions start listening to those questions and creating content around them. Pay
Gregory says I'd, love to hear more about the business side and how you grew to six figures on photography alone, I'm hoping to integrate more
services, education and sales into my business down the road and have plans for that, but definitely want my photography to bring in as much as possible.
So I have had a six figure photography business since year three, so I've had three to four years of six figures and they all looked different
One of them was super heavy, with weddings, I'd thirty weddings one year than the next year. I cut way back, but I focused more on albums and extending prince sales and lie
yeah. I brought on an associate tog refer so that we could shoot more as a business, but I was not necessarily taking on a higher volume and so each year, as looked absolutely
different and I dont think that six figure should be the ultimate goal I dont give Meda. Are you ve arrived when you hit that? I think you have to look at
lifestyle and say what is
said that I need in order to live the life, I want to live and am willing to put in the amount of time, and so when I look at pricing, it's an account
asian it's not an emotion, I think a lot of times we get so emotional about pricing, our are and we have to slip that script and say no like. I need
to have an equation. I'm a business, I'm a c o. What do I need it
hard in order to make it and then how can I make the experience for the clients worth every single penny and then some Rachel
hell, says: Engi Jenna. My question is: if you are starting out as a photographer again, what would you do differently in your first year of business, now
with hindsight of what worked in didn't work for you, your business and your lifestyle. So I think if I could go back
I would invest in more resources that would help me set up the back end of my business. So I was really
the photos and putting that stuff out there? But I was terrible about organizing and creating systems and workflows in templates and so
I was trying to reinvent the wheel with every single client trying to give this custom experience, and it was spinning so much
time. Doing this, where I didn't realize, I could actually give a better experience if I created a system in so if I could go back,
spend more on tablets and creating systems are then my business so that I could get back to the art again. I think I do
You realize that ninety percent of my time would be doing all the business stuff and ten percent of the time would be actually shooting and so
