As seen on Netflix's Love is Blind plus the press interviews is a great deal.

The question is how much would you pay for this opportunity? This buys you an instant reputation.

I'm not convinced. Wedding photography is quite expensive, so people will think quite a bit on who to get and what they're getting out of it. Pretty much everyone I know will not want to pay extra for someone "with a reputation" unless they can demonstrate that they'll do something better than the average wedding photographer. I'm willing to bet whoever is on this show will not really be better.

Of course, there are always rich folks for whom money is not an issue, and they won't spend any time thinking about it and will happily pay whatever for the guy who was on that show.

Looking from my own experience so many photographers are available it is hard to determine who may or may not be credible. Having a tv show connection provides that extra confidence that the photos will turn out well. It is one of those moments you can't do over.

But if the portfolio wasn't as high quality as others the tv connection wouldn't matter.

I would pay a little more to reduce risk.

And the biggest draw is brand. I might not have heard of you if not for your connection to the show. This gives you free worldwide branding. You could setup an online store and sell products or sell advice as a side business.
