Hey fans of The Profitable Photographer Podcast, be sure to listen to Singapore photographer, Hart Tan, who runs a high volume, 7 figure business he started 12 years ago.
He is an award-winning Master Photographer, entrepreneur, and owner of one of the largest photography studios in Singapore called Tomato. He shares his wisdom and his recommendation that we rely not just on what we can learn but what we can discover within ourselves about how to be more successful, happier, and creating the career the way that works for you.
I love our conversations and his thoughts on the following topics – Know that building a business is like building a house…start with the foundation. This can create a lot of freedom. – Always be curious about what works and what doesn’t. – Test and measure everything you do to market – Take personal responsibility, creative thinking, and problem-solving- – Remember that piece of advice can be a bad fit for you. Trust your inner guidance. – Have a system

If I were to list all of the accomplishments of my next guest the podcast would be just about over.
But his work…oh my gosh…it is amazing. he has received over 100 print merits and so many top awards for his gorgeous images.
He uses medium and large format cameras and film in creating his fine art portraiture and loves the tactile process it provides him in creating his work, along with the rich tones and high fidelity of the photographs that come from these tools.
He shares about his love of film and how it helps him creates fine portraits that create better sales for him, by giving a unique client experience, and a quality of print not available from other photographers.
His “last word” is that there is an inner voice inside of us. Listen to this. Stick with what you love. Be yourself. And get involved locally.
