Are you making enough money?

Do you have enough time to do all the things you want to do?

Do you have a system that has your back and means you never drop the ball?

Imagine how incredible it would feel if you had leads constantly coming in, a process to easily convert those leads into paid bookings and a system that did all those pull-your-hair-out administrative tasks for you, on autopilot...

Wouldn't it be life-changing?

In Shoot Like a Ninja, authors Chris Garbacz and Yuan Wang have combined their own learnings with insights from the world's top photographers into four simple steps that will show you how to attract more of the work you prize, earn more profit and spend more time doing the things you love without being chained to your business.

In four straightforward steps, you will learn:

• How to avoid the pitfalls that prevent photographers from realising their full potential.
• How to become the first-choice photographer in your field, whom your clients love to recommend.
• Proven and effective strategies that will attract the clients you want.
• Tips on closing those leads that you thought were gone.
• How to simplify your business, eliminate paperwork and free up your time.

Packed with business tips, automation tricks and real-life examples from some of the world's most highly sought-after photographers, this is the book for wedding and portrait photographers who want to work less, earn more and superpower their business.

Photographers who shoot like a ninja do not struggle. They are respected in the industry. They attract their ideal clients consistently. They're highly paid and can afford to do the fun stuff. Now it's your turn.

Since its invention in the early 19th century, photography has been an essential means of documenting the world and the people, places, and things that comprise it. With the advent of the handheld camera and then the smartphone, people of all ages have been able to experiment with photography, making this arguably one of the most commonly used creative mediums in the world.

THINGS EVERY PHOTOGRAPHER SHOULD KNOW will introduce you to the artistic elements of photography, including composition, posing, and color theory. It will also walk you through technical elements such as lenses, depth of field, exposure, and focusing techniques. While each of these will be addressed separately throughout this book, remember that successful photography brings all these factors together simultaneously; you will think as both artist and scientist when practicing your craft.

In addition to the basic strategies needed for capturing beautiful photographs, this guide will introduce you to different genres within photography, such as landscape photography, long-exposure photography, and portraiture. As a photographer, you don't need to confine yourself to a single genre unless you prefer to do so. Many photographers pursue their images in diverse settings and across multiple genres. When you're starting out, it's a good idea to try them all. Through experimentation and experience, you will eventually find the types of photography that most appeal to you and your artistic vision.

Photography can be a competitive and unforgiving trade, however there are many strategies for professional success. This book is a resource for photographers of all kinds and demonstrates the many ways to manage a career in photography, while still earning enough money to support yourself, a family, your interests, your aspirations, and your passion. Mastering the Business of Photography offers insights into what happens when you're not shooting--which is most of the time--and explains what you must do to further your career, make a living, and accomplish your personal goals. Topics include:

- Organizing assignments from start to finish
- Creating a plan and calculating risks
- Building a standout portfolio
- Anticipating financial matters
- Working with clients
- Self-promoting
- Getting paid
- Booking gigs
- Negotiating a contract
- And much more

For freelance photographers and for those employed by agencies as well, this guide is full of practical advice for navigating the world of photo work, coming from an industry professional with over forty years of experience.
