Editorial to Earnings: A 500% RETURN ON INVESTMENT Success Story
So, here's the deal: last year I invested £500 into an editorial for Elle Singapore. I had this wild idea to mix fashion with birds (yes, actual birds) in a studio setting. It sounded a bit out there, but guess what? That shoot ended up being my golden ticket. We're talking a return on investment that would make your jaw drop – 500% ROI, baby!
Now, I'm not saying you need to start wrangling birds for your next shoot (unless that's your vibe, then absolutely go for it!), but the point is, investing in your portfolio, even in the smallest ways, can lead to massive payoffs. It's about showing the world what you're capable of, filling in those gaps in your portfolio with work that screams 'you', and catching the eye of those big-name brands.
I've always believed in the power of strategic planning and a bit of investment to really get your work out there. And it's not just about the money – it's about thinking ahead, being a bit bold with your creative choices, and always, always aiming to stand out in the crowded world of fashion photography.
So consider this your nudge (or gentle shove) towards thinking about how you can invest in your next portfolio shoot. Think of it as investing in your future self – the one who's booking back-to-back shoots with the biggest names in fashion.
And if you're sitting there thinking, "But Olivia, where do I even start?" – don't you worry. I've got just the thing. Check out my free photo shoot checklist and my online course, "Perfect Portfolio," to kickstart your journey to a portfolio that not only represents you but also opens doors to endless opportunities.
Remember, the art you create today is setting the stage for your future successes. So, let's make it count, shall we?
I hope this feels more like a chat over a cuppa and gets you excited about the potential lying dormant in your portfolio. Remember, it's all about making those smart investments in your work and yourself. Let's create something amazing!
