Dec 17, 2024

On this episode of The Profitable Photographer with Luci Dumas,  I chat with Scott Wyden Kivowitz, a talented photographer, educator, and storyteller who has mastered the art of surprise proposal photography. As the Community Manager and podcast host at Imagen (an AI editing program), Scott balances his roles as a father of two, husband, photographer, and host of the “Workflows Photography Podcast”.

Scott’s journey into proposal photography began during the pandemic and has since become a passion, blending his love for storytelling with his commitment to delivering unforgettable client experiences.

Here’s what you’ll hear in this episode:

• Scott’s secrets to capturing those high-stakes moments in proposal photography.

• Why preparation and having the right gear—like dual cameras—are crucial for success.

• How Scott balances photography with his role at Imagen, offering tools like personalized photo editing, culling, and cloud backup.

• Why he encourages photographers to embrace In-Person Sales (IPS) for higher profits and better client service.

• The importance of using a CRM for organizing workflows and staying efficient.

And since his passion is helping people master their workflow, we also discuss ways to create more time in our lives for both the business and our personal lives.

Scott’s ability to teach in a straightforward, easy-to-understand way shines throughout the episode, and he even shares tips on using Imagine, with an exclusive link for 1,500 free edits. Whether you’re curious about proposal photography or looking to streamline your business, this episode is packed with inspiration and practical advice.
