Am I the only one who enjoys culling? The problem with AI culling is that there are some unconventional shots that end up being some of my favourites. Someone might be blinking, or it might be a bit soft, but there are parts of other parts of the image that really stand out. John is right though in the sense that these shots probably don't add to your business per say. If AI culls out some photos that you would have kept, your gallery is still most likely going to be good, and you'll save time. Same with the editing. When I edit my own photos, I don't feel like I've wasted my time. My couples know that I'm taking the time to do this myself, and I think there's a value in that for both myself and them. I also think that going through the culling process, and especially the editing process, can help make you a better photographer. But anyone who does AI-it-up, that's cool! Whatever works for someone and their business. Great video, John - as always xo
@jbivphotography2 жыл бұрын
I actually don't mind culling either. I'd rather just spend my time doing something else. But I do totally agree with everything you say here. If you haven't been culling and editing your own photos for a couple of years you probably should do it yourself to start out. Really understand the craft and what you're serving your couples with. And then when you start scalling your business look into saving yourself time. Thanks for adding all of this!

It can take some time to wrap your brain around it, especially if you're new to budgeting, but it is well worth the time investment to learn. You'll gain that time back 10 fold and have the bonus of knowing exactly where your money is going over time and that sense of security and control you get. Can't speak highly enough about the program, the team that makes it, and the benefits of using it. If anyone is wondering, no I've never been affiliated with them in any capacity.

No, you should take on debt. You will be losing your ass if you dont buy that new camera on a credit card. I'd be poor as hell if I had to pay for everything upfront to get my business successful. But the caveats to debt: only apply for cards with 0% apr and fantastic sign up bonuses or 2% cashback. AND THEN, if you dont pay it off within the terms, get a credit card for a balance transfer with 0% apr. DO NOT EVER pay interest to your debt - that is where you're dead in the water.
@jbivphotography2 жыл бұрын
That's the thing. Most people do pay interest on their credit card debt because they're using a credit card for money they don't have. Meaning they can't pay back all of what they are purchasing. The more I see credit cards unless you have great income it's really just a trap for the poor. I use credit cards for my business for the exact reason you're talking about with point and things, but if I can I try my best to keep my debt at $0 at all times.
