Tell Your Story Along With Your Photos
How does van Son get clients on social media? He presents himself not only as a travel photographer, but also as a person with an interesting story to tell. As he writes: “The truth about travel photography in 2017 is that the quality of the images produced is often less important than the person that shot the images.”
Given the choice between two photographers, many clients will choose the one who appears most interesting — and van Son wants to be that person. “For better or for worse,” he explains, “the wealthiest travel photographers in the world these days are not necessarily the best photographers, but the ones who are the best at marketing themselves.”
So the next time you set out to take that great photo, think about the story you’re telling along with the picture you’re taking. After all, a thousand words can land you that client who wants to pay for that really great photo.
