Description

Discover the true numbers behind the industry's gender split and see exactly why brand photography is attracting so many women photographers right now—and why it’s not just a coincidence.

Uncover the 'magic ingredient' of successful brand photography that allows you to charge more, secure repeat business, and turn simple images into powerful brand stories for your clients.

Identify a huge commercial advantage that many photographers are currently missing, which represents a clear path to high-value, consistent bookings if you understand how to approach it.


This week, we're diving into a topic not often discussed in the photography world: why brand photography is so heavily dominated by women photographers, both behind the lens and as clients. We go beyond the gear and business strategy to look at the psychology and personal connections that truly drive success in this niche.


Marcus and Sam discuss the surprising statistics showing the gender ratio and break down what makes women excel in this area—it's less about technical skill and more about empathy, storytelling, and emotional intelligence.


But here's the kicker: The show uncovers a huge commercial opportunity. We discuss an untapped segment of the market and what you need to know about their distinct visual approach. If you’re a brand photographer looking to increase your income, stand out from the crowd, and secure more repeat clients, tune in to find out where the real money is and how to get it.
