How to Increase Your Photo Bookings

Every professional wants to book more clients, of course, but how to actually go about doing so is not always obvious. If that is something you would like to accomplish, but you are unsure of how to approach it, check out this fantastic video tutorial that features an experienced photographer that shares three useful tips that will put you on the right track. 

Coming to you from Chelsea Nicole Photography, this excellent video tutorial will show you three tips for increasing your photography bookings. Of the tips, I think one that is especially important is asking for referrals. Photography can be a business built heavily on word of mouth; a friend or peer of an existing client might see your work, like it, and ask them who created it. Asking clients for referrals at the right time, such as when delivering their gallery (when they are appreciative and thrilled) can make a huge difference in your rate of incoming clients. And as the video mentions, removing as many barriers as possible to sharing your images also makes a big difference, as people are more likely to do so (and do so properly) when it does not as take as much effort. Check out the video above for the full rundown.
