@t
I was going into Broadcasting too, was even a DJ for awhile. But when they paid me minimum wage, thought it'd be better to get a real job. Did that for 30 years, still love photography but I'm up to my ears in debt! Thinking about it. 🙂 Great vid man
Great advice! I was actually expecting this video be a lot like all the other ones on youtube but you gave some gold nuggets. Thanks Chris!
Hey chris very inspiring video
Thanks Chris. I Hope I Will Meet You In Canada. Toronto.
Zzzzzz…….
Business owners need additional marketing choices. The market is so saturated. Don't you think?
Really, really great idea! Thanks boss!
Jump ahead to 5:00 where he actually starts talking about finding a niche and growing your business.
Do u surf
Really cool niche to get into. Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, that helped a lot because I just started my business.
Shout out for knowing about Burlington Hamilton and Newmarket! Haha ( Ontarioan here). Awesome videos. Would love to get someone like you to do my promotional business video.
Any suggestions for photographers, not videographers? Thx
is it safe to post hi res images on Instagram regarding image theft ?
Great tips! Think outside the box, look at the big picture of markets and if you are clueless find people paying photographers and ask them what they are looking for. They have no reason to withhold that information from anyone especially if they know you are a photographer. Learn about each industry where you might serve and be sure that your business model and pricing is sustainable but also can go upward if a client wants to. One niche I've found is cosplay and themed photoshoots. I live in a large city area and many of the photogrpahers now know me as that guy, they send clients they can't serve my way, or when someone posts and asks for that kind of work they always tag me. Build a good reputation for yourself and make your clients experience as well as your product unforgettable.
If only guatemalan goverment was like those you work with
This totally merges the creative with the practical…love the advice! Also, it's so impressive that you had a production company by the time you graduated from university. Please continue to share your story 🙂

A great video, and a great story about how you have succeeded.
haha ok but any suggestions on how to find a niche market that needs help? Sadly there are a lot of very good wedding and portrait photographers already so its a very over-saturated and crowded market.
I REALLY REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE those tips.
Thanks for this! I needed to hear it
I love that I personally know where he's talking about, I'm from Toronto too 🙂
I'm making a DM group with travel photographers! Anyone interested?
Do you have any suggestions for a starter camera that does a lot of what yours does…..that is more in the 500$ range? A starter camera to use for videography and photos? Would love to have the Sony, but not ready for that price tag quite yet. Love your videos!
This is actually a very good advice !! My problem when I started my photography business was that I did too many different types of photography. As soon as I tried to stay in a certain niche I saw that I was getting more clients and more regularly

Chris, loved that video. It really made me realise I'm in the same situation you were. I've worked for a global law firm for 10 years now. 8 Years on the I.T. Help Desk, and then I proposed to them to employ me as a photogrpaher/videographer, and they're loving my output. Only slight downside is ALL MY GEAR (pretty much, although I own 6D, and a couple of lenses) was bought by them. So for a couple of years I've got used to using some top notch gear (5DII, GH4, 16-35mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm, Glidecam,/Ronin-s, Aladdin LED flex LEDs etc etc, list goes on!) so the experience/understanding of that kit is now sorted, I guess I need to be prepared to leave that behind, IF I decide to fly the nest. Ooohh…. scary stuff. I need to fight that fear, and believe in myself! Thanks for your inspiration though!
Not ganna lie pretty cool intro
So cool 😎!
This is so helpful. I have been trying to start and establish myself as a fashion photographer and it's tough. This makes me want to work harder to find my niche.
Your hair is beautiful ; but if you shave the sides it and leave the top , you would look so hot lol.
Idk why but you remind me of Quinn from “The Magicians”
That's it..I'm subscribed. Love your perspective and optimistic approach. That touches people. Thanks for the Gems!
Very very good advice
Thanks for sharing this it was really helpful!
Interesting Points Chris. Recently I have followed the example of another youtube channel, and photographer/videographer and focus on my local market. Photography wise I think I am ahead in image quality, size of body of work and also on post processing. But this has only led to 2 clients for me in the past year. Nor does it give me much action on social media. To be fair, I live in a town of 130.000 people. But I would have expected more than 2 locally. What am I doing wrong?
I love how everyone has such a different introduction to this industry. It's cool hearing how differnet people got into their area. It can be hard to apply that to yourself, but it's very interesting
fun fact: in my language, "hau" means "banana". you're welcome.
wtf youre so inspirig i lov u
