You can find a prerecorded, online class on almost anything, but where live webinars excel is in the unscripted, personalized tips you can’t find anywhere else. For example, how can you get yourself on a photo editor’s “callout list,” where you can see what kind of work they’re looking for in real-time? Is self-publishing actually worth it? (yes.) Is it possible to make money by licensing personal projects? (Also yes.) And what’s the one question you should always ask during a portfolio review?
The webinars featured in this guide range from the creative to the practical (many are both). Beyond learning new skills that’ll give you an edge over the competition (creative digital compositing, editorial food photography compositions, and so on), you’ll also receive simple, concrete tips about building a business. Learn from a renowned travel photographer about what it takes to sell your work to a magazine, or crack the code to better engagement (and more opportunities) with help from a social media pro.
Even better, most of the webinars featured in this guide are available for free!
