[NARRATIVE]
Are you shooting weddings you don’t love but still booking them only because they pay the bills?
Do you want to completely change your style, but you’re afraid that no one will book you if you do?
For years, Duke Khodaverdian (of Duke Images) and Spencer Lum were both shooting traditional weddings in a style they didn’t love – until they pivoted their brands and started shooting weddings in completely different styles, setting entirely new trends in the photography world and dominating their markets.
This is the story of two polar opposite photographers that both found amazing success by defining and going after clients they love.
But while they both created remarkable businesses, the journeys of how they got there will completely surprise you.
