I've been watching all sorts of videos on this topic from many different channels and you are the best by far! You deliver the most valuable lessons and to the point, in a easy way that anyone can understand. I've watched many of your videos by now, you're very good at what you do and consistent in delivering value. Thank you!

[@SarahDeshaw]

That really means a lot and motivates me to keep going - thank you for watching and for your thoughtful comment!🤍

@@SarahDeshaw don't stop, keep going, you know your stuff and you do it so well! I couldn't sleep last night thinking about how I will create content for my business profile (software as a service), I'm not very good at marketing, it seems so abstract to me, I've been watching all sorts of videos on this topic, often the ones I find are about personal marketing their profile, photoshoot of themselves using a product or being "cool" somewhere. Or shortcuts and tricks to get followers, this and that, you know what I mean. Then you come along with quality lessons, how to gain trust, delivery content that is important to your customers, choose the right photos, color themes, consistency... All in a very subtle way (with a lovely voice and white background .) You do it simple, consistent and precise with no BS (like some other channels that just want them clicks.) In particular this video did it for me. You had me asking questions about what my customers want to see, how do they want to feel when see your product, position yourself as them using your product... I definitely come back to watch this video again. Thank you for sharing the knowledge! These are really valuable lessons! We're lucky to get it for free. ❤️

This question is more related to your lighting videos, but I'm wondering if you have any suggestions for taking bright photos in my house. I want my instagram to feature product photos, but styled in a real-life way. I'd like to take pictures around my house, but don't get a ton of natural light, especially in winter. Do you have any suggestions?

[@SarahDeshaw]

Sure! First, if you haven’t checked out this guide, give it a look: www.sarahdeshaw.com/indoor-lighting But if you need to add in artificial lighting it’s most helpful to use a light that is neutral colored and turn off all other lights (so white looking rather than blue or orange tint to the lifting). If you want to keep it super simple and don’t have a lamp or other light to help, a video light can be nice. Pro tip: you can point the light at a ceiling or wall nearby (especially if the ceiling or wall is white) in order to get a natural, diffused looking light! If you need a link let me know and I can look one up.

If I’m just starting off can I take aesthetic pictures from Pinterest and repost it on my Instagram brand page or will I get copyrighted

[@suruchiarora144]

Very nice❤️

agnese perazzo Thank you for your kind comment Agnese! 💞

I agree.....Being a photographer (mostly weddings), IG is a great vehicle for booking weddings. I can target my audience very precisely. I target both New Jersey Brides-To-Be (and NYC Brides) and high end Wedding Venues. My last image booked me 2 weddings, one of which was from a bride having her wedding at the same venue that I posted! I do try and keep the images consistent with what I guess you're alluding to....Aspirational!....Well done as always Sarah...... Philip @uptownphotographynj

[@SarahDeshaw]

Uptown Photography great to hear from you! And wow I love hearing that you booked 2 weddings from your last image! Congrats!🎊🙌🏻 And such an important point about the bride having the wedding at the same venue you posted - I bet she could totally see herself in that image! You’ll help her aspiration be fulfilled!☺️
