Making Money with Destination Photoshoots
Ever wonder how photographers actually make money traveling the world? In this episode of Talking S#!t with the Cincottas, Sal and Alissa Cincotta share the real story of how they built a business shooting destination photoshoots, starting with a senior session in New York and growing into weddings and portraits around the globe.
We’re not sugarcoating it. You’ll hear the good, the bad, and the expensive mistakes we made along the way; plus the exact strategies we use to sell, price, and deliver destination sessions that clients love (and happily pay more for).
What you’ll learn in this episode:
How destination senior sessions and engagement shoots boost your portfolio
Why clients spend up to 50% more on travel sessions vs. local shoots
Pricing and packaging strategies that actually work for destination photography
How to handle logistics: travel, wardrobe, transportation, and location scouting
What photographers need to know about destination weddings (and how to charge for them)
Whether you’re dreaming of photographing seniors in New York, engagements in Chicago, or weddings in Italy—this episode gives you the roadmap to make it happen without going broke.
