Infamous Productions
Driving Predictable Lead Generation for Wedding and Family Photography
Client Overview
Infamous Productions was a newer photography company entering the highly competitive Cocoa Beach, FL market. The area was already saturated with established photographers offering wedding packages and family beach sessions, making visibility and differentiation particularly challenging for a new brand. The local market was also heavily seasonal due to tourism cycles, creating inconsistent demand.
They partnered with Buddylytics to build a scalable advertising strategy designed to increase market share, break through the competitive landscape, and generate predictable, high-intent bookings. Our focus was on helping them grow steadily, stabilize seasonal dips, and build a reliable system that supported long-term success.
