Lindsay & Tim discuss the chaos in the photography world due to the ongoing US-Canada-Mexico-China trade war. They explore the implications of rising tariffs on photography gear, the economic changes affecting photographers, and practical solutions for navigating these challenges. The conversation emphasizes the importance of supporting local businesses and understanding consumer behavior during economic downturns, while also highlighting the enduring value of photography in people's lives. They talk about the impact of economic challenges on creative professionals, particularly in the context of a recession. They explore the psychological aspects of consumer behaviour, specifically the 'lipstick effect,' where consumers continue to spend on small luxuries during tough times. The discussion also covers strategies for luxury photography businesses to thrive in a recession, emphasizing the importance of marketing and adaptability. The speakers highlight the need for financial awareness and investment in one's future, encouraging creatives to remain proactive and flexible in their business approaches.
