It is NOT ok for photographers to complain online! 🤯 🤯
In this episode:
There! I said it! It needs to be said and repeated to MANY photographers, and in this case I am using the word photographer loosely.
All day every day my social media feeds are packed with photographers complaining about their clients - which by default is also complaining about potential clients. These same photographers are whining about how hard it is to make a buck and how little people appreciate their work.
Well it is time for a little sage advice from a Gen X'er who has no sympathy for the snowflake photographers who think that this complaining and whining is the answer. And let me be clear - when I say snowflake - that is not a generational slur - there are photographers of all ages doing it.
Let's talk about it!
How can I help you with YOUR photography?
Leave a comment below, and I will discuss it in next week's show!
