What’s your best technique to sell photos without social media? I’s love to know!

@peeweebarney 11 ай бұрын

I used to photograph children's track & field event and as soon as they finish the event, I ask their name and address and send them tiny proof prints of themselves, along with prices depending on size of prints. Then I request them to send me a check based on what they ordered. That was during 35mm heyday and when I did my own black and white printing.

@JorenVaes 11 ай бұрын

A tip for people in wildlife: Consider looking for local small wildlife-preservation and nature preservation groups. I know we have them here in Belgium with things like Natuurpunt. Before you make the full commitment of jumping full-time pro, you can offer your services for free - after all, these groups don't have a lot of money to pay for professionals, and you are probably making the pictures anyways. But this can be an 'in', as you grow, these groups talk, work together with publishers that might look for contract work, and you can potentially get referrals that way. Just make sure to make clear that as soon as it's no longer a local conservation effort, you need to start charging for your work.

I watch your videos over 99% of the rest of KZfaq photographers because your videos are plain fantastic. Clear cut, no nonsense and most importantly informative videos that aren't always trying to sell me on something, be it a sponsorship or product that put me in a virtual classroom. As an aspiring photographer, this kind of information delivered this way is priceless. Thank you.

@jameskurzynski2386 11 ай бұрын

I love these tips! They remind me of how I "accidentally" started getting professional photography requests. I've never wanted to be a professional photographer, but I really enjoy shooting wildlife, sports, and music events that are of professional quality. If I would shoot a football game for families I knew, I made the images accessible to the families and coaches of the team. If I would shoot a concert, I would make the images accessible to the band and the owner of the venue. Without even trying, I was starting to get requests from teams and bands I didn't know to shoot their games and shows and were willing to pay me. It was also an indirect way of getting valuable feedback as to my talent and growth as a photographer. I'm still happiest being a "non-professional" photographer who does professional side gigs, but it is nice to know that I have an outlet that I enjoy that makes me a little money and would develop into something more full time if I wanted.

@karloveliki5373 11 ай бұрын

Any more tips on concert/gig photography? I'm looking to get into it, had tons of practice shooting my friend's band on their gigs, next month having my first paid gig for an acquaintance. That's a great tip to share photos with the venue, didn't even think of that lol

@jameskurzynski2386 11 ай бұрын

@@karloveliki5373 There's a few ways you can approach it. Where I live, we have live, free, outdoor music every night in the summer at different locations in town. I just take my camera, get there a little early, and ask the band if they would mind if I would take pictures of their show from the crowd. They always say yes and sometimes they'll give me a business card and ask me to send them the pictures. I always offer them for free when I just show up. After seeing my work, a couple bands have asked me to shoot another show and they always offer to pay me something for the second show. I never demand a specific fee since I do this as a hobby, but, more times than not, the band will offer to pay about what I would have thought my time was work. If I were to go pro, I would also make a photo book with sample of my shows. That way if you get a band that wants to see your work before they give you permission to shoot their show, you have a quick reference to what you have done to give them confidence to say "yes" to your request. Again, I'm not a "pro," I just go out and have fun shooting. So, my tips might not best, but this is what I would do if I were you.

@KawaiiVegs 7 ай бұрын

I'm at this stage as well ... and before I knew it people asked me if I can shoot their swimming events. By helping them promoting their event, I develop my skills, meet other photographers and catch some advice here and there. I still feel bad when they ask the price of the picture, so everything is free and I feel better. Maybe one day, I'll overcome this feeling :)

I started down the stock photography and social media rabbit hole and, honestly, found it demoralizing. And I was starting to just try to "crank out content". I took a pause this year and just went back to doing photography for me, working on art I find compelling. I've been getting a whole lot out of your videos and the quality of my work is improving dramatically. As you mentioned, my work started getting noticed and I've started doing some non-profit volunteer work that has been getting me some great exposure. My business cards are circulating around the local community and a just one of the photo gigs I've gotten has been worth more than all my stock photo efforts to date. Thanks again for all that you do here. I can't say it enough.

Thank you.

Friends keep asking me to sell them my photos after they see them. After listening to your suggestions, I decided it was go time! I went online and ordered photo cards as they were asked for already. The aurora borealis pics I took will wait til I see the quality for me to be sure. Then I have people who want to buy blow up photos to frame. Guess this is how I am starting. I did free photoshoots already for several people now. I love taking nature shots though. My used zoom lens I just got made such clear photos, I chose them to make cards out of within 3 days of taking pics. Thanks for all your encouraging words Simon.

Wonderful video, Simon. I'm an armature at many things, but a professional at my vocation (23 years and counting) and am self-employed. I love the tips you are giving to the fledgling photographers who are looking for a way to make their passion a profession. It reminds me of the conversations I have with musicians. There's a perception I think that the only choice people have to make a living is by social media. It's just one of many tools. I think the last few years really highlighted the importance of face-to-face transactions as a great way to build a career in a global society that has been increasingly isolated through the massive increase in time spent in shallow social media relationships. The recent research findings of correlation of time spent in social media and the positive correlation with depression is an evidence of this. I think you are giving some great pointers for the next generation to think 'old-school' and get out face-to-face with potential new admirers.

A good one I got into was real estate photography. Not a lot of people talk about this option. Started charging $200 per 1 story house and $400 for a 2 story home under their enlistment. And then once you start getting better you can up charge your services. And then play with numbers when it comes to 1 story to a 2 story home. Some people I know charge a flat rate per or by hour. It’s honestly up to you.

For me, knowing what would sell is the biggest challenge. I've submited photo's loved by the FB groups I've shared them on etc, just to get feedback that the photo looks great but isn't something they think would sell. With all the sites available who sell prints online etc these days, the biggest challenge is getting that shot which is different enough from the rest.

If "Bangers" come along the way so be it. But documenting the whole journey is what I have focused on. Try to see everything along your way to a destination. Engage with the people you are with. There is so much to learn along the way. Photography is the tool we use to go through life and document what we can. As an art form, that is the bonus.

I learned so much from this single video than 20 others I saw before. Thank you very much. Also, I would love to see more content about the business aspect of photography, or how to get clients different ways.

DUDE! I love these videos, literally confirmation that I'm doing things the right way haha. I have prints on consignment in local prominent business's in my hometown, and also set up at local makers Market type events where people sell their wares, and sell prints. In addition to holding my own events at local establishments. I have found experientially that my Instagram success and subsequent overall usefulness as a media transmission platform, has a direct correlation to the effort I put in out in the real world. Example being, my main source of followers and post reach are all people that I first met out at events, who in turn followed, shared, so on. GAHHHHH your videos are fire 😅😅😅😅😂
