Welcome back to Wine Down & Focus! In Episode 19, we’re talking Business and Market Shifts in Photography for 2026—plus a few style trends we think you’ll be seeing more of this year.

Before we dive in, we’re sipping a California Syrah from Sonoma County (2022 North Coast Syrah by Jolie-Laide), and we break down the most delicious pairing: bacon-wrapped mushrooms + bacon-wrapped dates stuffed with goat cheese. (Yes… it was as good as it sounds.) We also share our favorite “wine deal” honey hole: LastBottle.com—and how we snagged this $38 bottle for $17.

Then we get into the real topic:

• Why clarity is everything in 2026 (clients want simple, not 47 options)
• Consistency as the new luxury (style, communication, experience)
• The “specialist vs. multi-genre” debate (and what actually matters)
• Streamlined systems that create a better client experience
• Trends to watch: motion/cinematic feel, real light, real tone, and less “filtered” editing
• Why success might look quieter this year (and what to focus on instead)

Our 2026 vibe: Clarity, Consistency, Confidence.

Also—WE’RE LOOKING FOR GUESTS! If you have something to share with photographers, head to our website and fill out the guest form.

Cheers! 🥂
