We also chat more about the a9iii... what a beast!- - - - - - - - - Your hosts: Greg is based in Northland, New Zealand Thom is based in NSW, AustraliaSponsors: Studio Ninja - SNAPPENING50 - 50% off first year Queensberry - SNAPPENING19...

    158: Less portraits, more photojournalism

    Hi SnappersIn 159 Greg and Thom discuss a big shift in mindset when it comes to shooting weddings: that of shooting fewer portraits, and allocating less portrait time, and placing more emphasis on documenting the day as a whole, and shooting more like a photojournalist. Thom has also discovered the G.O.A.T of Lightroom shortcut key software: PowerKeys! - - - - - - - - - Your hosts:Greg is based in Northland, New ZealandThom is based in NSW, AustraliaSponsors: Studio Ninja - SNAPPENING50 - 50%...

    157: Tom has a road kill story and Greg talks workflows

    Yo yo! So Tom has a pretty savage road kill story that kinda kills the mood... then Greg tries to salvage it with a workflow epiphany. No matter how hard we try to talk about things unrelated to photography we keep seeming to make them link back to photo stuff!- - - - - - - - - Your hosts: Greg is based in Northland, New Zealand Thom is based in NSW, AustraliaSponsors: Studio Ninja - SNAPPENING50 - 50% off first year Queensberry - SNAPPENING19 - 40% off Workspace Pixellu - SPG20 - 20% of...

    Greetings, SnappersToday's episode has some SERIOUS thicc topics and some mega deep cuts! First, we chat about FloGate - Pixieset's recent decision to kill off FloThemes, the Wordpress theme company we all know and love (and most of us use). Thom explains how he has already bailed and fully rebuilt his website with Kadence blocks. Greg then drops the bombshell that he's considering moving to a studio business model - taking bookings then sending out associate shooters to shoot the weddings, w...

    Episode 154: Clients THINK they want unposed photos... but do they really?

    THE SNAPPENING RETURNETH Hey everyone, we are back! Sorry it's been a while. Greg and Thom have both been traveling, and while we did take microphones with us and really wanted to record on the road, we just didn't get there. Super stoked to be back into it and record weekly again. In episode 154 we start off with a good old rant. We've noticed that some photographers keep their books closed for a certain future period, and then make a big fanfare about opening them up. In this episode we get...

    Episode 153: AI editing is stupid! (got your attention, didn't we)

In this episode full of ranty goodness we also discuss Greg's coming storm-chasing adventure, heavy metal festivals, and how long after a wedding you should be delivering your photos. - - - - - - - - -Yo...

    Episode 152: Have you ever heard of a Wedding Content Creator?

    Hey heeeey kids!!! Episode 152 is live and oooh it's a good ranty one! We speak about pricing - where is the balance between too many bookings at a low price and too few at a high price? We chat about a great way to send photos straight to the Photos app for easy social media uploading. Then we get to the meat of the bone about Content Creators... are they they annoying and intrusive or the next big opportunity?- - - - - - - - - Your hosts: Greg is based in Northland, New Zealand Thom is base...
