This method worked like a charm for me when I was in hs. So what are we going to do? Pick out a local tournament with a ton of teams in it (can be any sport) Head to the website of that tournament and find the rosters of each team Go to Instagram and begin to DM 3-4 players from each team (the ones with the highest social following / ones that look like they post photos a lot) Say this: “hey NAME, I’ll be out at *tourney name* this weekend and wanted to see if you or your teammates would be interested in getting some photos” SPAM that message to TONS of players (not coaches or tourney directors) Once you get a positive response hit them with the offer — “Bet sounds good! Photo packages are $40, you get 20+ images all delivered in an album. However since you were the first person on your team to respond I have a deal for you. For every player you get to buy photos from me at $40 your price drops $5. So if you get 5 players to buy at $40 you get $25 off!” — From that collect a list of player numbers that are interested, their game time, and then tell them you’ll accept Venmo, cash or whatever payment method you want. Happy money making.

My goal with this is to help you fast track your way to success with your camera! First things first... write a short intro telling us about a little bit about your journey within the photo/video space! Stay tuned for upcoming courses, competitions and calls you wont want to miss 👀
