Is This The Death of Portrait Photography?
Season 1 Episode 134
Is the portrait photography industry already dead? Or is it just evolving into something far more powerful?
In this eye-opening episode, Jonathan and Ronan pull no punches as they unpack the uncomfortable truth most photographers are ignoring: the industry as we know it is in decline.
But this isn’t all doom and gloom. In fact, it’s the best time ever to reinvent yourself and create a business that clients crave — one rooted not in photos, but in personal transformation.
What You'll Discover:
- Why portrait photography is "effed" (Jonathan's words!) — and what that means for your future.
- The Kodak warning: how failing to adapt will leave you behind.
- The 5 emotional stages photographers go through when facing uncomfortable industry truths — and how to move past them fast.
- The bold new opportunity: pivoting into the booming wellness industry using photography as a powerful tool.
- Why technical perfection doesn't matter nearly as much as how your work makes people feel.
- The hidden superpower of discovery calls — and how they do the real heavy lifting in a modern photography business.
- From art to impact: how photographers are now elevating lives, not just capturing smiles.
