    7 Things I’d Do Differently If I Were Starting My Photography Career Over

    If I could go back to day one of my photography career—knowing everything I know now—I wouldn’t follow the same path. In this episode, I’m breaking down the 7 biggest things I’d do differently to build momentum faster, price with confidence, and create long-term opportunities without years of trial and error. From niching down earlier to not letting gatekeepers define my ceiling, these are the lessons I wish someone had handed me when I started. Whether you’re new to the industry or looking to reset your trajectory, this episode will give you a roadmap to build smarter, not harder. https://jamespatrick.com/

    You Might Also Like: Fudd Around And Find Out

    Introducing Big Canada Energy w/ Serah Williams from Fudd Around And Find Out. Follow the show: Fudd Around And Find Out This week, Azzi brings her UConn teammate Serah Williams into the FAFO universe — and it doesn’t take long for her to feel right at home. Alongside Ashanti, the trio get into everything from Serah’s move from Wisconsin to Storrs, to her viral LSU visit, and how she ended up with the nickname “Big Canada” (which, apparently, is still up for debate). Serah talks about growing up in church, leaning on her faith, and adjusting to UConn’s intense basketball culture. She opens up about her Nigerian roots, her love of sneakers and Lululemon fits, and why she refuses to eat fruit that isn’t consistently sweet. Things take a turn when the group tackles a Midwest vs. East Coast showdown, reacts to fan questions, and hits their “What the FUDD” of the week — including Azzi’s confusion over “snotty” being a compliment.

From fake promises of future gigs to sneaky discount tactics, James shares real-world examples, hilarious truths, and strategies to protect your time, talent, and bottom line. If you’ve ever struggled with pricing, boundaries, or managing client expectations, this episode will help you take back control of your creative business. https://jamespatrick.com/

    Land Your NEXT Client

    We recently had a workshop at The Hive Studios on career growth and it got me thinking about how I've personally grown my photography business and built a portfolio of clients. Over the last 20 years I've gone through two major phases of business development growth; when I first started and right now. In this episode of the Beyond the Image podcast I share the exact startegy I have used for the entirety of my career to not only onboard new clients but to earn repeat business from current clients. I also discuss ways you as a creative can differentiate yourself, beyond just segmenting or having a niche audience. From there we discuss the client relationship journey and the process of earning repeat business from your happy clients.

    I Lost A Job (But Did Everything Right)

    I just lost a proposal for a video project. The client contacted me and had a pretty lengthly list of requirements and specs for the assignment, all of which we were able to accomodate and a very competitive price. However, the client responded to say we were about three hundred percent over their budget. To be fair - their budget was pretty ridiculous and way under even the most conservative of market value for the work they were requesting. We were able to counter with a revised approach that brough our estimate within $200 of their budget and we still did not win the job. So. what happened and why was our approach still the right approach? https://jamespatrick.com/

    Are Photo Bookings Down?

    Bookings for photographers, videographers, and other creative professionals are dropping—and it’s not just you feeling the pinch. From shrinking marketing budgets to rising inflation, tighter interest rates, and oversaturation in the market, the data shows a clear pullback in spending on creative services worldwide. In this episode, I break down the latest research on why client demand is slowing, what economic forces are driving the trend, and, most importantly, how you can adapt your business to thrive despite the downturn. If you’ve noticed shorter booking windows, more price resistance, or a tougher time standing out, this episode gives you the clarity—and the strategies—you need to move forward. www.jamespatrick.com Follow on Instagram @JPatrickPhoto
