How to Support Your Photographer During Covid-19 | Whitney Beth Photography | SLC Family Photographer
 

If you have a photographer friend in your life, check on us, we are not ok. Like many of my photo friends, my slow season ends as soon as the first blooms start to peek through the bare trees. It's a time for fresh awakenings and senior pictures. Usually I am on blossom watch with other photo friends up and down the valley with numerous photoshoots in the wings, waiting for the blossom bloom to officially schedule. And this doesn't even come close to all my wedding photographer buddies! Weddings have been postponed left and right and small elopements now take the place of temple weddings with the new closure. I am extremely lucky in that my income doesn't effect my little family too much. With Danny being a pharmacist we have pretty good job security. But there are tons of ways you can help and support the photographer in your life! Some costing $0!

1. Buy Prints

I offer print options with all my galleries (just click on each picture and sizes and prices will pop up) I also have a print shop full of nature and landscapes I've taken from all the places I've been. Buying prints - either of your session, or from my print shop, is a fantastic way to show your support monetarily. In fact, if you check out and use the code: COVID19 you'll get free shipping! 

2. Engage on their posts

Let's face it, no one has a lot going on right now anyways, and there's a good chance you're on your phone. Like, comments and shares are all superb ways to show you care about your photographer. Every social media marketing strategy just got thrown for a loop with the stay at home ordinance. Commenting and spreading the love helps our posts stay relevant and could introduce us to potential clients that you are friends with. 

3. Book a future session

When you book with me - regardless of if there's a pandemic or not, your $200 session fee is due upon signing the contract. Book with me now and we will have plenty of time to plan and design your dream photoshoot. 

4. Leave a Great Review

Reviews are literally worth their weight in gold. Especially on Google. For every positive review I receive, not only does it help attract potential clients, but Google thinks I'm the shiz and puts me higher up in search results. Lets be honest, when was the last time you ventured past page one of search results?

5. Refer them to friends

A referral is the greatest complement you can give your photographer. If you're not in the position to book a session or buy a print, maybe you know someone else who is looking to update their family picture, or add some art to their walls. Referring a friend to your photographer is trusting me and my work so much, that you want someone you care about to experience working with me. 

Thanks for all the love,
