#54 Sandra Coan: How to find your photography style and stick to it

Welcome to Series 6 of Shoot Edit Chat Repeat, the podcast for people photographers. Hosted by two leading UK portrait photographers, Vicki Knights & Eddie Judd.

This week we are chatting with US-based child and family photographer & educator, Sandra Coan.

Sandra has run her successful studio business for nearly 20 years, has taught on huge platforms such as Creative Live, and has done keynote talks at international conferences.

Sandra has such a clear, distinct style, and we wanted to get her advice about how photographers can find their style and stick to it.

We talk about the following:

- Why Sandra decided to shoot with film and artificial lights

- How following what other photographers were doing at the start of her business work for her

- Advice to photographers who are struggling to find their own style

- How Sandra attracts new clients and photographs around 300 families a year (without burning out)

- How the photography industry has changed and predictions for the future

Sandra was a fantastic guest and we know you're going to get so much from this chat.
