Ever wonder why you need a separate subscription for your website, CRM, payment system & gallery delivery? You shouldn't have to.
It’s annoying.
This person gets it.
Let’s go back.
When I was getting into photography
Lets say 15 years ago.
Even though it was like 20 now.
I built my own website.
Hand coded it.
I thought that was for sure going to be how I was different.
Turns out, it just became a full time job for a month.
Learn from my mistakes. Don’t do that.
Then I went to a Wordpress template for a number of years.
It was customizable, which I enjoyed.
What I didn’t enjoy was how often random things would break and cause my website to go down,
Or worse, for 2 weeks of January, my contact form inquiries weren’t actually being sent to me.
Safe to say that was a very expensive mistake.
I then went to Squarespace for a while, which worked okay.
They’ve definitely done some things right, but the entire system is geared at general business owners. So there are a lot of features that just don’t exist.
Then you fall into the trap of paying for a website subscription, Booking system, and gallery system.
It’s both a lot of money, and also a bit of a disconnected customer experience.
So what Focal has done, is combine this all into 1 place.
Not only that, but they will build your site for you.
For Black Friday, they’re offering something pretty crazy.
It’s a new Creator Plan that comes with a simple photography website build.
It’s a lighter version of the full website build, but it comes with the backend booking system, which includes bookings, payments, contracts, galleries, and an easy system to run your mini sessions from.
For what it’s worth, I’m also a part owner of Focal, and give a lot of product and design feedback.
I’m basically making this my perfect system, and I hope it is for you as well.
So here’s how it works.
You select from one of the foundations for your site.
Then into colour options.
Then you send them 15 of your best photos.
Then they get started on building your site for you.
These are some of the other amazing sites they’ve built for photographers.
Nicole Ashley,
Joy Michelle
And my wife Lindsay.
It’s incredibly easy, and you can get a full refund any time until launch.
How the math works for this -
The new creator plan is usually $450.
But for Black Friday, I have some discounted slots available.
20 of them to be exact.
This takes the one time design fee from $450 down to $200 on the creator plan.
It’s so easy to get a site built with Focal because they do it for you.
Pick your design, send your images.
Then they’ll schedule a backend tour with you to show you one on one how to make the most of your website backend.
If you want a more advanced website built, you can also get Into the business plan, that is also half price for Black Friday.
This comes with everything in the creator plan, plus a heck of a lot more.
It’s probably best if you book a consult to talk to the team about your specific needs, and see if that’s the right fit for you.
This business plan will be going up to $3000 in 2023, so get in now if you want it.
Okay.
To summarize.
Creator plan.
Get one of the slots, and get your website built.
Get the backend that includes bookings, payments, galleries, and even a contract that you can use.
To get one of the slots, head over to the link.
Or if you want to go a bit more advanced, hop on the Business plan before it goes up to $3000 next year.
Drop any questions you have in the comments below, or schedule a call with the Focal team to learn a lot more.

0:00 Intro
0:26 Step 1
3:39 Step 2
6:28 Step 3
8:48 Step 4
It’s a 3 step process.
Basic Skills.
Awareness.
Sales.
Repeat.
Its a 4 step process I guess.
But you only really have to spend real time and effort on one of the steps, and the others will take care of themselves.
Step 1.
The basic skills.
To summarize why I shoot Sony so often now, it’s because of the Tamron 35-150mm f2-2.8 that is For Sony.
So you have your gear.
If you’re like me, sadly you’re introverted and have no communication skills.
You’re probably great at video games though.
The biggest part of the learning process is to actually start working with couples.
It’s awkward at first, but after 3 or 4 engagement style shoots you’ll be good with couples.
The additional layer of awkward forever is when you’re in a very loud family environment, with a lot of people shouting and trying to control the family formals.
Or a friend of the couple that steps in as creative director.
To their defence, sometimes they do a great job.
Sometimes they have the worst ideas.
If you’re a member, you have access to my wedding photography photo checklist.
You can use that to start.
Big thing that helps me out a lot during family photo time, is having a list of combinations the couple gave you in advance.
You can ask the couple for a family member or friend to help call out names, and usually this disarms any potential problem situations, and puts you on the same team, rather than in a house of problems.
Or a field of problems.
Sometimes a waterfall of problems.
So skills. Learn them by getting couples to do a shoot with you.
You can watch my behind the scenes videos, but it’s a lot different once you’re in control.
Step 2.
Awareness.
I can simplify this to a simple statement.
3 touch points.
You want your couple to come across you in 3 different places for them to book incredibly quickly.
That could mean, that a friend mentions you name.
They see a paid ad on social media.
And they see you as a preferred vendor at a venue they’re looking at.
Any one of these individual points may get you an inquiry, but the most qualified and likely to book couple is going to see you in a few places. They may not even remember them if asked.
They just get a feeling that you’re the one.
That they like you.
Thi stacks on top of having a great website.
3 touch points.
Step 3.
Sales.
You have the work.
They’ve seen you in a few spots.
Now how do you make the sale.
Great question.
Let’s ask Taylor sitting a half foot to the left.
My left.
Not your left.
If you’re operating the 3 touch point strategy, sales will honestly not be that difficult.
The more credibility indicators you have out there on the internet machine, the easier it will be.
Do I likely miss out on one or two weddings per year that I could have convinced them to find the budget to book with me?
Yah probably.
Do I attract super low maintenance couples now that aren’t into communicating for no reason.
Yes, absolutely.
So sales, weirdly kind of takes care of itself.
For me, another key was offering video as well. So as myself, or a team of two, I’d do both photography and highlight film coverage.
The couples that connected with me, loved the idea of a small team to do both. In most cases they weren’t going to hire a video team. Either because they didn’t want the bonus people there, or because of cost.
By me offering both, I doubled my income in a year.
My average sale for weddings went up, as well the overall number of bookings. Since I was no longer being compared to other photographers, I was a one stop solution if they wanted a nice small video as well as their photography coverage.
Then Step 4.
Repeat.

In this video I use the Sony 24mm F1.4 G Master lens (without focus breathing comp on) with active stabilization.
Most of the high ISO footage and photos are at 10,000 ISO which I feel like is the highest number I typically find myself at on a real job.
Honestly, this exceeds expectations of such a high megapixel sensor.

All the images in this video are from the Sony A7R5.
Free preset pack: taylorjacksoncourses.com/free-wedding-photography-lightroom-preset-pack
When it comes to the best camera for wedding photography. Honestly anything current will get the job done. When it comes to me, the Sony A7RV autofocus and screen are worth the update if its within your budget. The larger megapixels really doesn't matter for me when it comes to weddings, but it is for sure nice to have in other areas of photography.
The autofocus is so easy to use, and makes my life a lot happier on a wedding day.

Thanks to @Magic Wedding Photographer and @Timothy Muza (he filmed this) for the nice times in Portugal. Go follow their channels and check out Magic's review on the camera. Thanks to him for letting me use a few autofocus screen records.
In this video we talk about the camera. The real life things I need a camera to do, and the ways the Sony A7R5 meets, and exceeds them. A lot of people will probably call this a Sony A1 killer if they don't need the high frame rates, and electronic shutter.

Sony has made my perfect camera. The A7RV.
It seems designed exactly for my specific needs.
Which are broad, and quite honestly, completely unrealistic.
I’m a hybrid wedding photographer, and video creator.
A commercial photographer, and video creator.
A YouTube Photographer, and video creator.
I create a lot of work, over a lot of genres.
From Antarctica, to Kenya, to Japan or Iceland.
And I’ve never really found the one camera to fit all of my needs.
They brought all of the good forward, and didn’t unnecessarily remove features, or introduce problems to make you have to spend more money buying a more expensive camera.
I want to mention this point again because I think it’s very rare in the industry.
They didn’t bring out the hammer, and do something silly just to make you have to buy a Sony A1 or a Sony FX3 as well as this camera.
This can be THE camera. Your camera. A camera that when you get it, you’re not immediately realizing the limitations and wondering if you should have spent more money.
This camera really is everything I’ve loved in previous Sony cameras. All in one place.
First.
This camera is incredible responsive.
The autofocus which was already amazing, got a big improvement with the new AI chip.
I won’t get into all the details, but basically this camera understands people, animals, and objects on an entirely new level.
It is the new industry leader when it comes to that.
It is fast. Very fast.
Maybe my favourite ergonomic thing of any camera brand, is how you have 3 physical dials that are easy to get to.
Two on the back, and one on the front. You’re not struggling to move your thumb to the wheel down here to control aperture.
That said, there is a 360 dial, and that dial can be used as a D pad to move left, right up and down.
The ergonomics in general are also great. Gone are the days of clunky bodies.
Next. The LCD screen and EVF are beautiful.
Incredibly nice to use.
A lot of nice touches, like the audio monitors up in the top corner.
And it comes with a fully articulating screen. There’s also an option to use it more like the A1 if you wish.
Menu system makes sense, and the body is incredibly customizable.
I’m pretty simple with my customizations.
ISO gets set to this wheel, which in my opinion should be standard.
The C2 button get sets to APS-C crop mode, so I can quickly bounce into it with one button if needed.
I leave everything else the same.
The Sony A7RV just works.
With the camera
You can take as much control as you want to, but all of the automated decisions are going to be even more accurate now.
This really is a camera that really does stay out of your way.
In a metaphorical way.
It’s obviously still in your hands.
And in front of you. Physically.

Join us in Morocco for a review of the Tamron 20-40mm f2.8 lens for Sony E mount. It's a great companion to the Tamron 35-150mm f2-f2.8 that I use very often at wedding, portrait and commercial photography sessions.

Get the Tamron lens here: amzn.to/3yD6ZpD
Today we're at a wedding using the Tamron 35-150mm lens. It's kind of a review/in the field with.
It's an incredibly useful lens that I've enjoyed using all summer. I've probably done about 15 weddings with it as a main lens now. More will be coming up on the channel over time.
I use the Tamron lens on my Sony A7IV for this wedding day.
