In Episode 13, we will be looking behind the curtain of the business of motorsport photography, because being a successful professional photographer is far more than your ability to produce a consistently high standard of photography. You have to be able to find clients, keep clients and price your work to create a sustainable business.

For many photographers and artists, the business side of photography is the hardest part. Making a living from selling your work in a competitive field where others are willing to do the same job for much less, or for free, presents numerous problems. So in episode 13 Jamey and Drew will tell you how they go about running their business and the best way for any photographer, no matter the stage of their career, to create a successful business model.

WHAT WILL BE COVERED?

• Social media and marketing for motorsport photography.
• Business 101 for Motorsport Photography
• Finding Clients.
• Pricing your work.
• Copyrights.
• Invoices, Contracts and Work Agreement examples.
• As always, any and ALL questions from our live audience will be answered throughout the workshop.
