Your Photography Portfolio Is Losing You Clients (Here's How to Fix It This Weekend)

I used to send potential clients to my Instagram. I had thousands of followers, decent engagement, and I thought that was enough.

That wake-up call taught me something I now repeat to every photographer I coach: social media shows your recent work, not your best work.
