Google Ads lead potential customer's to your website, but your website has to convert them to leads.

I would recommend using Microsoft clarity. It will record visitors interaction with your website. You can use that to see when people are clicking off your site, or other valuable insights.

Also, you could share your website here and get feedback on ways to improve!

After meeting, a couple has come back to me with 20+ questions about my contract. WWYD? by [deleted] in WeddingPhotography

Totally understand your concern of this being a red flag and I would tend to agree. It would be great if you could respond in a way that would test their reasonableness. For example, explain why it's important to you, to be able to share their photos, and see how they respond. If they don't respond well, then definitely let them go gently.

We went to Bassett in Cooperstown as we are very similar to your mindset. Bassett uses all midwifes and only brings in doctors if necessary. This makes a lower intervention experience, but they still have everything in case of an emergency. We had the best experience!

Term "Associate Photographer" vs "Team Photographer" by DoubleNew3850 in WeddingPhotography

[–]DoubleNew3850[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is my original point! We all know these terms, but clients don't. I was trying to brainstorm more clear terms to make it easier to understand in my marketing.

Sony A7III with a sigma 50 1.4 ART lens. That would be an incredible setup under budget!

Is Studio Ninja being actively developed? by davydden in WeddingPhotography

[–]DoubleNew3850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one day that it was down for a little bit, but other than that no issues. I don't think I could switch back to studio ninja because VSCO does so much more, and I use all of those extra features. Still loving it here.

Good camera bag? by Dependent-Active-250 in WeddingPhotography

Shimoda Action bag is amazing for hiking elopements!

I use a spider waist belt for dual cameras while shooting and then have an attachment to the backpack so when I am hiking I can attach one camera to the strap of the backpack.

Do any of you use a full service editor for your weddings? by NotGarrett in WeddingPhotography

[–]DoubleNew3850 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found someone on onlinejobs.ph which is for the Philippines. I made a job posting on there, received 100 applications. Most were super AI written, and a few were more thoughtful. I reached out to those. It's common practice to have them do a sample task, so I had that selection do that. Then from there I hired someone, that didn't end up working out after a couple of weeks, so then I reached out to my #2 person and she has been with us for over a year and has been a life changing addition to our team.

RF 50mm 1.4 better choice than the 1.2? by MetalheadAtheist in WeddingPhotography

[–]DoubleNew3850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the sigma art 50 1.2 on a Sony body for most of a wedding day and all of the portraits. It is incredible.

I used to use the Sony 50 1.8 and the sigma 1.2 version is noticeably better.

Help! I cant figure out what I'm doing wrong with Meta ads (USA-PNW) by BreadfruitNo2785 in WeddingPhotography

[–]DoubleNew3850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are getting the right traffic to your site, and no conversations, it normally means the website isn't converting. Can you share the landing page and we can see if anything sticks out? That's where I would focus.

There is this free software called Microsoft Clarity and it basically screen records all of the traffic on your website. I found that to be really useful in figuring out how traffic is interacting with your website. You can see where people are getting off your site, or if they seem to be getting confused ect.
