Two weeks ago, Jeff and I were completely checked out on a two week vacation on Kauai. No phones, no media, no news. But when we landed back in San Diego, Coronavirus hit the U.S. And within a week, our revenue stopped, our state ordered shelter-in-place, and our business shut down.In a very short amount of time, the world has turned upside down for all of us. But for photographers, this time is not just scary, it's absolutely terrifying as we've watched our cash flows dry up and jobs get cancelled or postponed for months.So how do we survive this?Well for me, that's the wrong question to be asking.Instead, the better question is, "Who are we going to be IN this?"Jeff and I are reeling from the emotional and mental roller coaster of this pandemic, so I sat down (literally, I sat down on my bedroom floor), turned on a spare mic (all of my regular mics are at the studio) and shared my innermost thoughts about what this all means.I get honest, I cut the BS, and I definitely cry. Cuz that's just how things are right about now. Plus, I outline the three things that wedding photographers should be doing RIGHT NOW to make it through this crisis.GET OUR FREE COVID-19 EMAIL RESPONSE TEMPLATES HEREhttps://theyoungrens.com/photographers/free-resources/covid-19/Resources Mentioned in this Episode:Traction (book)Tyler J.
