Ep. #099 - What's the Weirdest Thing You've Done for Your Photography Business?

06/09/19 • 70 min

Wedding Photo Hangover

This week we're talking a lot about that new Mac Pro from Apple. It may look like a cheese grater, but we're pretty certain it doesn't grate cheese. Steve posits a theory about Patrick Rothfuss's book series The Kingkiller Chronicle which is oddly related to this new Mac Pro. We talk about what you should do if a bride asks you not to take many photos of a bridesmaid. We also talk about what it's like to do photography in your thirties.

Beer Talk:
Dustin - Margarita Style Spin-Off from Taxman Brewing Co.
Steve and Dustin - NATURDAY from Natural Light!

Q&A:
What's the weirdest thing you've done for your photography business?
How do you critique a second shooter that's disappointed you?
Should you give money back to someone who cancelled their contract because they no longer want to do a complimentary shoot that was included in their contract?
Links:
Patrick Rothfuss and the Cheese Grater on his blog.
What to do about that bridesmaid on Quora.
Photography in your 30s on FStoppers.

Ep. #098 - How Do You Take Photos Your Clients Will Use in Their Profiles?

This week we're talking about the death of the Canon 7D, why some people are afraid to try new types of photography (specifically wedding photography), and how Sony just pushed Nikon out of the number two spot for camera sales in the US. We also have the harrowing tale of one man getting bitten by a devilish fiend, updates on Dustin's time in politics, and a little talk about Aston Villa making it back to the Premier League! We know you all love when we talk about football/soccer.

Beer Talk:
Dustin - La Maison from Taxman Brewing Co.
Steven - Deduction from Taxman Brewing Co.

Q&A:
How do you shoot photos that your clients will use in their social media profiles?
Should you agree to photograph something illegal, like clients smoking weed in a state where it isn't legal to smoke weed recreationally?
How important is the quality of your car?
