In our second podcast we get down to serious business, mostly the art of photography business.
Dan & Mick have had very different careers and approach marketing differently, and ask the question. What makes you a professional photographer or as Mick says "non-professional". What are the components that make up being a professional ? We take a look at those that create and what makes them successful.
Working for free, is it cool to exchange for exposure or experience ? How can you build your portfolio on a budget.
In Curmudgeon Corner this week the lads discuss social media and is it really useful for marketing these days ? Are Instagram algorithms damaging, or the "invisible nasties" as they are now called actually problematic or helpful ? Are websites dead and why doesn't Mick have a website ?

Hello World
3 RecommendationsThis is it ! Our “Hello World” Episode.
We have been meaning to do our podcast for a while and now its “hear” for your listening pleasure and our glory. Well every two weeks or so anyway, we are listed on Deezer, iHeartRadio, Spotify, Google Podcasts and soon on Apple iTunes.
In this episode Dan and Mick will be talking about a few subjects in their amusing but grumpy style. Firstly taking to sword our recent f@k ups while working onlocation. Sometimes things just do not go to plan, while Dan tries hard not to get sued, Mick forgets some vital equipment and tries to style it out.
We also talk about our “Pet Peeves” or “Pet Hates” depending on your geographic location.
Then finally we talk gear and the Nikon Z9 and Canon R3, are they worth it and do they offer anything more than Sony’s flagship, the Sony Alpha A1.

Full Curmudgeon
3 RecommendationsIn this episode we get grumpy, very grumpy indeed, so much so that Mick gets squeaky when we start talking about camera reviews. Dan says bad words about YouTubers which annoy him (no names mentioned). Grab your tin hats for Curmudgeon Corner.
Dan talks about how to successfully market and make your website so its found by potential clients and new visitors. Mick doesn't have a website and is looking to build one, Dan offers some advice for marketing using SEO and PPC ands how to get your blog onto Google News.
The Curmudgeons also chat about courses, what's useful, what's not and can you do too many courses ? What to look for how to choose the right one.
