Solid video as always. Is there perhaps a typo in the headline?
Your videos are like an ice bucket of reality. Thank you! 🙏🏻
Glad you like them!
There's a typo in your title. You forgot to add a " have ". Also thanks for the content. Its great advice !
Well that took all the questions bopping around in my brain and answered them in a really clear and helpful way! Thank you as always!
Always great advice. Thanks Scott!
Legit good advice. Going through this myself with the whole aim/end goal is to be getting an agent
Great video!! When I get better at photography I feel I would look into having an agent at start. When I gain small clients . I am nowhere near this . But thank you for this video!
Very good talk.
Great video, though it sounds as if its the same old catch 22 issue a lot of workplaces suffer. The business wants to hire someone with experience, but if you have no experience how do you ever get hired? How do you complete a commercial or campaign shoot to get the experience necessary if one of the requirements is likely to have an agent advocating on your behalf if the agent won't take on the photographer whom lacks campaign or commercial experience?
It's the 'breaking into' part that I think many of us falter at.
I like how you explain that by being distinguished or easily identifiable style wise can help get a foot in the door, its understandable an agent would want that and not stereo typical shots, this sounds like the best chance of getting a foot in the door with an agent, but it still sounds like the agent has to take a gamble on the skilled yet unexperienced tog. I am just unsure about how 'a tog fights' for a position that they can't even go for in the first place. I understand you'll have to start small and work your way up (its unlikely for you to land a $20k job when you haven't even handled a $5k job), so I think this is probably worthwhile talking about, how you 'work your way up the ladder' etc.
It's not like there are volunteer jobs going on commercial shoots that an up and coming tog can apply for and gain that broad overview of the commerical industry? Or is there... If so who do you contact to gain experience even if not paid? Where do you start? etc.
Cheers again, although this area of photography is not my focus I still find all of this stuff interesting.
totally right, you can't get any well-paid jobs unless you are represented, you won't even know they exist
Thank you :)
Another excellent episode! Always appreciate your straightforward and authentic information!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Truth bombs
You said "you already need to be making money for an agent so sign you" so I wondered (having recently watched your portfolio course): who do I send my portfolio to in ordner to get work, before I am ready to send it to agents? In other words: who am I making money off of to get to that agent-stage? Maybe a thing of interest to many, since small clients as stepping stone are not a viable path.
thanks scott!
get it out to all of the local ad agencies first.
Sound generally right. But I see tonnes of represented photographers with generic work (e.g. these yellowish film portraits). Just saw someone with barely any commercial work and no particular style but a few BJP awards getting a well-known agent.

The real question is: who needs a photography agent in 2022?
Well i guess if you want to be on famous publications etc. the agent is a must! They have the connection, the experience to put you in thsese project and things will go faster than hustle alone
@@TechsmartGr yes, but they promote you only if you are already known. They will not risk their reputation with someone new
I would kinda to deal with contracts, gain clients but i guess paying a % to them you could keep . But they find clients for you as he says they deal with the contracts i believe ? And id love to have a agent that got me good clients!
For alot of commercial work agents are involved
@@Cin-db1dd they would get real clients not people who waste your time
