ASMP National and Town Hall Meetings

ASMP National COVID-19 Info Hub

ASMP understands this a stressful time for photographers and all creators, and in response, will be holding a series of virtual town hall meetings. During the town hall sessions, the ASMP team will give a quick update on the state of the industry with respect to COVID-19, then open the floor for questions and concerns from attendees.

Check the National website for the next meeting.

Great points from Heather Elder on what to think about and work on during COVID19:

  • Make a list of all your open jobs, with photos coming up on license, renewing licenses is income for you!
  • Repurpose imagery for your clients…hey remember that brand image library we created? let’s go back in and see how we can make it work more for you”
  • Maintain your relationships with your clients– what are ways you can cultivate your relationships during this time?
  • You are helping creatives/art directors/creative directors create content and solve problems – what are some ways you can create more content for your clients? DIG DEEP to find ways to collaborate differently!
  • Take this time to reflect on your BRAND, photographers must think of themselves as a brand, who are you, what do you stand for, create a “vision statement”
