Advertising for photographers

Be the photographer they find first.

People searching for a photographer nearby tend to book one of the first few names they see. We specialise in Google Business Profiles, local SEO, Google Ads and Facebook ads that get you to the top and keep the diary full.

SOUND FAMILIAR?“My work is better than theirs, but they get the bookings.”

The photographer who gets the job often isn’t the best. They’re just the easiest to find. Good local search and well-run ads even that out, and give the quality of your work a fair shot at the booking.

OUR SPECIALISMS

Four ways to fill your diary.

Most photography bookings begin with a search. We get you into those results with a listing that looks good and makes you easy to contact. Then paid ads reach people right when they’re ready to book.

01

Google Business Profile

Your listing on Google Maps and in local search, set up in full with your best work. We keep it active with posts and new photos, and reply to your reviews.

02

Local SEO

We tune your website’s pages and titles, along with local signals, so you come up when people search for a photographer in your town.

03

Google Ads

Search ads that put you at the top of Google for phrases like “wedding photographer near me”. You control the budget.

04

Facebook and Instagram ads

Ads that put your work in front of people nearby who might book. Think engaged couples and new parents, or local businesses.

QUESTIONS PHOTOGRAPHERS ASK

Advertising for photographers, answered.

Why is Google Business Profile so important for photographers?

Because it’s what shows up in Google Maps and the local results when people search for a photographer near them. A complete, active profile with strong photos and good reviews is one of the most effective free marketing tools a local photographer can have.

Do Google Ads work for photographers?

Yes, they can work very well, because they reach people who are already searching for a photographer. The trick is picking the right searches and areas, then sending the clicks to a page that turns visitors into enquiries. We handle all of that for you.

Should I use Facebook ads or Google Ads?

Each does a different job. Google Ads catch people who are already searching. Facebook and Instagram ads create demand by showing your work to people nearby who might book. Many photographers do best with both.

How much should a photographer spend on ads?

Stop thinking of advertising as a cost. Call it a cost and you cut yourself off from a vital part of your business, and turn it into a negative. See it as an opportunity. Better still, look at it this way: not advertising is the lost opportunity. Every client in your area who searches for a photographer and finds someone else is a booking you never knew you missed. We don’t sell off-the-shelf packages. After a short conversation we’ll recommend a starting budget for your area, your kind of photography and your goals, agree it with you, then report plainly on what it brings in.
