#246: Can the Boutique Business Model Work For Men?

Ever wonder if the boutique photography model works just as well for men as it does for women? It’s a question that came up in my recent Boutique Breakthrough workshop, and in this week’s Joycast, we’re shedding light on the truth.    Here’s a sneak peek:   How Ryan Vinson leverages sports photography and auctions to dominate his local senior market (with 95% of his clients being boys!) Adam’s journey to raising his prices and building a profitable boutique business. Andy’s story of escaping the shoot-and-burn model to create a year-round income while staying present for his family. Reggie’s creative networking strategies (like turning team banners into marketing gold.)   Plus:   The unique challenges male photographers face and how they’re overcoming them. Real-life examples of how connection, visibility, and networking make all the difference in boutique photography.   Whether you’re just starting out or looking for fresh strategies to market your photography, this episode is packed with inspiring stories and actionable tips to grow your boutique photography business.
