On this episode of The Mike Cassidy Photography Podcast I have a conversation with is Trevor Sherwin of Provocateur Images in Toronto, Canada. Trevor has been a professional boudoir photographer for eight years, and been involved in the business of photography for even longer. I wanted to have a chat with Trevor about camera gear, and making smart decisions about what to buy. Additionally, I talk a bit about my new purchase, and we answer a few listener questions from the mail bag. Argh! I'm so sorry, I somehow screwed up my audio levels while recording and my audio sounds baaaadddd. I tried to fix it as best I could... but it's still pretty horrible. Sorry! 😥   Topics Discussed In This Episode: Mike's new camera purchase. A few camera tips for beginners. Answering listener questions.

Trevor Sherwin - New Year, New Camera?

Stay safe, and keep a positive attitude.  My guest on this episode of The Mike Cassidy Photography Podcast is Trevor Sherwin of Provocateur Images in Toronto, Canada. Trevor has been a professional boudoir photographer for eight years, and been involved in the business of photography for even longer. Trevor and I put this episode together sort of last minute-- to talk a bit about the current corona virus pandemic, and it's effect on photography.  There wasn't a solid plan for this episode, and at first I thought there was going to be a talk about how everyone is in quarantine-- but it turned out to be quite different. It's hard to keep two people from talking about what they enjoy doing, so the conversation quickly turned into an all out assault on how to keep busy and improve during this down time.  We covered a lot of ground in depth-- from getting a fresh perspective on your work, to details in tweaking your website.  Grab a paper and pencil and get ready to take notes!  It's chock-full.  Topics discussed in this episode:Getting a fresh perspective on your photography. How to look for new ideas. Is boudoir photography supposed to be "therapy" with a camera? Should boudoir photographers get "emotional" with clients. Being genuine to who you are is vital to success. Finding your own style. Photography "Experts" and "Mentors"-- use caution. "Mentors" are everywhere. Can "Mentors" really get you to the top? Is your marketing strategy strong? How marketing is like exercise. Facebook ads. Do you really know your hourly rate? Who is your customer? Are you a Mercedes or a Hyundai? Getting your website in shape. What does your homepage have to do with Facebook Ads? What does your website say about your clients? Quarantine homework assignments.   Links/Products In This Episode:WPPI - https://wppiexpo.com/ Do More Photographers - https://domorephotographers.com/ Boosted App - https://www.boostedproductivity.com/  Simple Steps To Blogging - https://www.mikecassidyphotography.com/post/simple-steps-to-building-a-boudoir-photography-blog-and-why-its-so-important-for-your-business  Where To Find Trevor Sherwin:Provocateur Images Website - https://provocateurimages.ca/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/provocateur_images/       Subscribe / Donate / Follow The Show: Website: The Mike Cassidy Photography Podcast Instagram: @mikecassidypodcast Subscribe: Subscribe on Patreon Subscribe: Subscribe on Pod.Fan Donate: Make A One-Time Donation via Pod.Fan

Trevor Sherwin - The "Quarantine" Episode. A Photography To-Do List For Your Down Time.

Is it possible to succeed as a male boudoir photographer? My guest in this episode is Trevor Sherwin of Provocateur Images in Toronto, Canada. Trevor has been a professional boudoir photographer for eight years, and been involved in the business of photography for even longer. Male boudoir photographers are a bit rare. In this episode we discuss what its like to be a male boudoir photographer and if there are any advantages or disadvantages.  We also discuss character &amp; personality traits necessary to grow your business.   This episode wasn't laser focused on a specific topic, but rather a bit of a broad conversation that covers everything from video marketing to topics around being a male boudoir photographer to the intricacies of couples boudoir. Trevor is exacting at this business approach, as well as being an accomplished portrait artist who is genuinely looking to improve lives via his talents.   Topics discussed in this episode:Using video for marketing. Spark Camera app for iPhone. Blasting "unproduced" videos to Facebook/Youtube.  Why everyone needs to do this. Connecting with clients via video. The power of boudoir photography. Video consultations with clients. The male boudoir "gap." Differences in glamour photography vs boudoir photography. Is it tougher for male boudoir photographers? Managing a boudoir session and keeping everything upbeat. Advantages of the male point of view. Pushing the limits toward erotic boudoir... how far should you go. Preparing for surprises. Couples boudoir sessions.
