#79: Disaster-proofing your photography business with Ike & Tash

Shoot Edit Chat Repeat

Welcome to episode 79 of Shoot Edit Chat Repeat, the podcast for people photographers. Hosted by two leading UK portrait photographers, Vicki Knights & Eddie Judd.

This is our final episode of 2020! And what a great one we have to end a difficult year. We're talking about disaster-proofing your business for the future.....something we're all a lot more aware of after this year!

In this episode, we're chatting to Ike & Tash, They are an amazing husband wife photography duo based near Seattle, US. They photograph families, seniors & weddings and have purposely chosen not to specialise. Tash is a renowned mummy influencer and Ike is a successful YouTuber. They love training and helping other photographers to achieve their dreams and have done keynote talks at conferences around the globe.

Here are some of the topics we talk through....

- how to balance a family with running a successful business

- how to tragedy proof your business

- their reasons for not niching and the drawbacks it may have

If you join us as a patron, for just $5 a month, you'll get access to more questions we put to Ike & Tash including what they outsource anything in their business, why they don't show prices on their website and whether it's better to market different parts of your business together or separately.
