Rant There are people who have little talent/skill that get a lot of business and people who have talent and skill who get no business. It’s so annoying. I know people who know how to use their tools and get gigs left and right and there’s me who tries very hard to get work and has no luck.

You are not good people only care about the subject matter not the skills to do the job right and make things look good-great.

There are people who are amazing and get work but I am talking about the people who are near the line.

    There is a reason that virtually of the successful photographers recommend taking business courses. Business skills and marketing make a bigger difference skill behind the camera.

    As long as their images are good enough to make their clients happy it does not matter if they are not as good as another photographer. The clients are happy and that is all that matters in the end.

    As others have said quit complaining/looking down on the quality of other photographers work and instead focus on learning how are they getting that much business. What are they doing better/different than you are that results in them getting those clients?

    Once you have those answers and can compete with them on the business/marketing side then hopefully your skill work translate into clients choosing you over the competition.
