Why most photographers miss out
Photography is hyper-niche by genre (wedding, family, newborn, brand, real estate, headshot) — generic 'photographer' content misses every targeted searcher.
Photo-quality is the entire decision — most photographer GBPs have weak portfolio displays and lose to better-positioned competitors.
Pricing transparency vs. consultation-required positioning is unclear at most studios, losing both buyer types.
