How To Deal With People Who Want to ‘Pick Your Brain’

Val and Sarah

October 21, 2014

Dear Kat I understand the irony of my emailing you about this, but I need your help! I'm a wedding photographer and my business is going pretty well. I've been shooting full time for two years now and I'm really proud of how much I've achieved. It's taken a lot of work, but it's been worth it! My problem is, I'm now starting to get a lot of emails or private Facebook messages from friends and strangers asking if they can 'pick my brain'. Sometimes they fire questions at me, but most of the time they're asking if we can meet for coffee or if they can come and see how I work at a wedding! While I'm honoured that people think I'm worthy of asking advice, I can't help but feel annoyed about it. I've worked my BUTT off for the past two years to get to where I am, and these people seem to want me to give them all the answers for free! Don't they realise there's no quick answer and that hard work and time is really what it takes? You must get a lot of this too so I was just wondering if you had any advice on how I should deal with it?

They took the traditional elements and turned them on their head. From the bride's short polka dot dress and purple hair, to the Hello Kitty cake and the vintage ice cream cart for dessert, this was a wedding that was quintessentially 'them'.
