Kickstart Your Photographers Social Media Marketing

Photography and social media: they go together like peanut butter and jelly, or cheese and carbs! Your social media channels — particularly Instagram — are the perfect online portfolio for showcasing your incredible work.

In fact, when clients and brands are looking to hire a photographer or content creator, Instagram is often the first place they check out. Even before your website. But, as important as marketing on social media is, chances are, you became a photographer because you love being out in the world and getting creative. NOT because you wanted to spend all your time staring at the screen of your phone, responding to comments or fussing about your follower count! The good news is, it’s possible to grow your social media presence without sacrificing your time, sanity, and creativity. With the right tools and strategies up your sleeve, you can turn your photos into a powerhouse online portfolio.

That’s where our award-winning social media suite Plann comes in to help set your strategy and execute on it. From fashion to beauty and beyond, Plann’s content prompts, daily caption starters, handpicked hashtags and easy cross-posting will have you growing your following and skyrocketing your shoot bookings.

From our Photographer Plann’rs

“The thing that first drew me to Plann was the integration with Cloud, my photography client delivery service. I can directly access my galleries and schedule those images into my Plann calendar. There is no other service like it out there! This saves me so much time.But the reason I stayed with Plann is that every feature has been so thoughtfully built with the user in mind—no matter your skill level with social media marketing. There are so many great little features that all add up to it just being the most user-friendly scheduling service I’ve ever used, like the ‘Best Performing Palette’ in analytics and the inspiration for posts based on industry.

Even if you’re skilled at writing captions, sometimes after the 30th caption your brain just goes blank and it’s incredibly helpful to have some inspiration to get things flowing again.”

photography business using social media



Elisabeth started her photography studio while working remotely for an agency. She wasn’t very familiar with social media and Plann didn’t exist at the time, but she noticed that social media was the main driver of new clients. Fed up with using other scheduling tools, she was relieved when Plann emerged onto the scene!
