Did cell phones make photography business’s obsolete? Yes, and no…and what you can do about it…

December 12, 2020 By Robert Provencher Leave a Comment

There was a time when candles were a much needed utility. When night came it was a good thing to have a little light to let us see in the dark.

When light bulbs were invented and candles became obsolete, they became an art form.

Candles, for the most part, lost their utility.
What about photography? Is it an art form? or a commodity? Is it obsolete as a business model?

When I played with dolls…(it’s not what you think) and how it helped me in my photography business…

December 10, 2020 By Robert Provencher Leave a Comment

I was young. I had four sisters younger than I.

I still have four sisters, and they’re still younger. But we’re all older.
I am the only boy. Being surrounded by girls all my life had it’s perks.
And yes, there was a time I did play with dolls, but not in the way you think….more on that in a sec.

Award winning or top rated? What would you rather be?

December 9, 2020 By Robert Provencher 6 Comments

We had some interesting discussions last night during the Lighting Mastermind with Hark.

I made some revealing confessions which made him feel good. And talked about my flaws and short comings. But how, in the end, the only metric that really matters and should matter is how happy mny clients are and if I am making money.

Hark also commented:

Thanking my personal demons…

December 3, 2020 By Robert Provencher Leave a Comment

I didn’t start “living” until I quit drinking, faced my demons and sobered up. That was almost 30 years ago.

All my demons and neurosis made me who I am. It’s a long list. But one I was willing to tackle and in short order change things around.

When I stew in self-doubt and shame, I quickly realize I wouldn’t have had it any other way. My experiences were one of a kind and all mine. What’s important is my attitude TODAY and my actions TODAY.

Why volunteering & donating is good for business

November 26, 2020 By Robert Provencher Leave a Comment

Strangest thing happened to us this year. On three occasions our studio received tips from three clients totaling over $500.00

All three from weddings and family portraits.

Sure, we’re had tips before, but they’re rare. Three within three weeks?

Maybe the lockdown had something to do with it? Maybe people feel for us? Maybe they have more money than usual?

Who knows. This much I do know: helping out others, our community, donating and volunteering time is good for the soul and good for business.

For decades we’ve donated our time to local theater, music, fundraisers, events and anything we deem worthy.

Maria Sampaio also believes in helping out in causes she believes in.

What I suggest you do is help her out. She’s almost reached her goal and could use a little extra push.

We have so much to be grateful for. When business is good, clients are calling, and generous souls like Maria do their part to help not only other photographers, but causes like this one, we share the prosperity and gratitude and make things a little bit better.

Offer what you can. Maria and struggling soldiers appreciate it.

Yours in success and in photography,

Rob
