New Blog – Charles J. Lewis – Mentor

Top 8 reasons to date a photographer…

#1: They work well in the dark…

Summary: "New Blog – Charles J. Lewis – Mentor"

Information about the new blog by Charles Lewis on photography business, marketing & selling.

I encourage anyone working as a photographer to check out the new blog by Mr. Charles J. Lewis. I have been a student of Chuck’s now for about two years and have found his teachings to be solid and based soundly on proven experience. One thing is certain - I would not be in business as a photographer right now if it wasn’t for Chuck, and I know of many others who can say the same.

If you’re looking for information on the latest gear, the newest Photoshop tip or what f-stop to use, Mr. Lewis’ blog may not be for you… but, if you’re interested in the business of being a photographer, marketing & selling then I would advise you to hurry on over to http://www.cjlewis.com/blog/ as fast as your mouse will get you there…

Photography Mentor Testimonials

I am really glad I had Nigel as my photography mentor and SEO coach. I have read quite a lot on this topic in advance but there is nothing like one to one coaching and individual advice. Nigel has a unique combination of experience as a professional photographer, IT expertise (that he continuously keeps up to date), and a talent for explaining business and technical matters in a human and clear way. He helped me both with my general SEO strategy and multiple concrete details, so that I was able to make it from an unindexed website to Google's front page in a matter of few months - for a local area of around one million people. Besides that, it was a great pleasure for me to work with Nigel in person… - Olga Novikova - Rotterdam

I feel like I'm always expending energy for my business. It was calming to have someone else giving energy to me and my business, and amazing working with someone who specializes in the photography business, I didn't have to explain myself - Nigel already understood the problems and challenges I faced and already had potential solutions… - Megan Alter - Amsterdam

Nigel has amazing empathy, so much so that what was scheduled as a 30 - 45 minute one-on-one skype conversation on SEO and the importance of Social Media lasted for an hour and a half talking to me more as a friend than a business advisor, photography mentor, or coach. From viewing my website as we spoke, Nigel was able to pick up on my strengths and weaknesses and offer me sound and meaningful advice on how to move my photographic business forward… - Julian Evetts - Hertfordshire, UK

A thank you to Nigel for last week's photography mentor coaching call. From the frustrations of the $50.00 session with a disk of all of the shots, to looking your neighbor in the eye when you see them around town. The importance of educating your potential clients. This I feel has become very important as everyone has an uncle Harry with a digital camera who can shoot their event. Again a big thank you to Nigel - Michael Meyers

Nigel... I wanted to thank you for the photography mentor coaching call last week! It was just the shot in the arm that I needed. Working with you is amazing and helps keep me on the path to success - your experience and insight is invaluable. I can't tell you how great it is knowing I have a trusted advisor. Thank you again! - Kristi Nelson Church
