Is It Cheating To Use Editorials and Styled Shoots? | Ep 12

Today we're talking about a hot topic among wedding photographers: should using styled shoots, editorials and workshops to build your portfolio be considered cheating? Spoiler: We don't, and while you need to be sure that you're not presenting shoots as real weddings, it's perfectly fine to use images from shoots throughout your website and your social media. Shoots allow you to create images that your target clients will connect with, and were essential in our own journey, allowing us to attract better weddings and work with incredible clients. We hope you enjoy this episode and if you have any questions send us an email at hello@zachandgrace.co, we'd love to hear from you!

Why We Will Always Over-Shoot On Our Weddings | Ep.9

We're no strangers to walking away from a wedding with a small stack of SD cards and seeing 10,000+ images loading into Lightroom in one import... But you know what? We're proud of that. Early in our business we used to hear more established wedding photographers talk about actively shooting less and less on their weddings... And we used to hear things like 'let's face it, couple's won't know what we don't shoot...' To be honest, it struck us as a pretty cold sentiment. We decided early on we were committed to our couples, and we made the decision to be the kind of photographers they felt confident hiring - even if it meant spending a few extra hours in the edit or buying a couple of extra hard drives each year. And you know what? We've had a hell of a lot of success as a result. In today's episode we're sharing our thoughts on why this mindset is holding photographers back, and giving a different perspective on a topic that is often talked about amongst photographers. We hope you enjoy this episode, and any questions you have send us an email at hello@zachandgrace.co, we'd love to hear from you!

Managing Expectations with Your Couples Ahead of the Wedding | Ep.8

Having two-way communication with your clients is SO important as a Wedding Photographer, and can make the difference between feeling anxious and feeling confident on the day. We often forget that for most of our couples, planning a wedding is something they're new at... obvious right? But how many of us have looked at a schedule and through 'this is going to be impossible!', and immediately started to panic a little inside about just how we're going to be able to perform. The thing is, once you engage in that two-way communication with your couples and start opening up about what you feel could be negatively impacting either your work or their experience, you can overcome that fear. We don't need to make assumptions about what our couples are expecting when we look at those schedules, or those mood boards, and then feel the pressure to live up to something we don't feel is possible... we can simply start the conversation and work with our couples to figure not only what's possible but what matters to them. We hope you enjoy this episode, and any questions you have send us an email at hello@zachandgrace.co, we'd love to hear from you!

The Two Stages of Growing Your Business | Ep6

Every Wedding Photographer experiences TWO stages of growth... and its really important to understand what stage you're in, to make sure you're making the right decisions in your business. The first stage is all about building your portfolio, gaining experience, and truly starting to qualify yourself as a Wedding Photographer. In this first stage you'll be held back from charging what you want to charge by what you in lack in portfolio and what you lack in experience. At this stage in your business, showing MORE helps you increase your price; more real weddings to your portfolio, more experience under your belt, more testimonials from previous clients. But... When you're established, increasing your price requires something different. It's not about showing MORE, it's about REFINING what you show. Increasing your price in this second stage is all about attracting clients who can pay more, and for that you need to be showing work that's relevant to them. That might actually mean showing LESS, but making sure that what you do show connects with them. You need to understand what stage of your business you're at before you can apply the right strategy... Often the reason Photographers struggle to increase their price is because they've been using the same strategy they used when they first started their business, but it no longer works. We hope you enjoy this episode, and any questions you have send us an email at hello@zachandgrace.co, we'd love to hear from you!
