We recently connected with Taylor Newsome and have shared our conversation below.
Taylor , appreciate you joining us today. Alright, so we’d love to hear about how you got your first client or customer. What’s the story?
The First Client I had was a friend, one that believed in me from the very beginning. Supported me, helped spread the word tagged me when people were looking for photographers as everyone knows word of mouth is the best for small businesses. Her photos turned out amazing and I’m so grateful she was my first client seeing my growth from her first photo I took to her photos I take 2 years later is amazing and I’m forever thankful for that.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
How I got into photography, I am always taking photos, life is so so short it has been an unfortunate lesson I have learned more times than I can count over the last few years. Photos freeze that moment and people in time, they’re here once we no longer are. My logo is an owl, its after my great grandmother, she passed in 2016 during my senior year, she was my best friend she was always there. supported me in everything. It was the very first thing that came to me when I was putting my logo together, I instantly knew it was her telling me to run with it. Owls were her favorite, and now I get to continue to carry her with me through my business as well. Some know me, and there are so many people that still do not, and I can’t wait to meet each of you who I will have the honor to work with in the future to the ones who do not know me my name is Taylor, I’m a wife, and a mom to a sweet little boy. I offer photography for all sessions, from newborn all the way to weddings, including themed sessions anything you dream of we will make it come to life! The things I’m the most proud of is how far I have come in the last 2 almost 3 years of owning Newsome Photography, the repeat clients who have become friends and the ability to watch their children grow some from newborns and some through school and into the military.
What do you think helped you build your reputation within your market?
What helped in building within my market is being myself, we will laugh and we will have fun during your session. I want everyone to enjoy their time working with Newsome Photography and enjoy their images on top of it.
What’s been the best source of new clients for you?
The best source for new clients for me is Word of mouth my clients and friends of clients are always the first to comment and tag me or even pass out my business cards when they know someone is looking for a photographer.
