288 - Photographer Horror Stories

This Can't Be That Hard

A few weeks back, I put out the call for your photography-related horror stories... from silly mistakes to dealing with nightmarish clients, to just plain bad luck.

We've all been there. When you're a small business owner, things are bound to go wrong sometimes, and as much as we take our jobs seriously, there's also value in acknowledging the cringeworthy, mortifying, and downright bizarre situations that can come with running your own photography business!

Thanks to everyone who shared their stories to make this episode a real emotional roller coaster. I think you'll be impressed - as I was - at these photographers' ability to keep their cool, problem-solve on the fly, and even find the humor in their misfortunes. And the next time you find yourself in the midst of a photography crisis, hopefully, this episode will remind you to take a deep breath, problem-solve with creativity, and maybe even crack a smile (....and then share it on next year's podcast!)
