It’s uncommon that someone becomes a photographer because they love business – they do it because they love photography. The catch? Not all photographers are innately good at business; and more specifically – marketing. Yet in order to run a successful photography business, photography strategies are necessary.

Today, we’re chatting all about editing photos on Lightroom mobile. I know how overwhelming editing photos can be because there’s seriously SO much to it, (and you’re probably also lowkey stressing if you’re even doing it right,) but – I’m hoping to simplify the process for you today! GETTING STARTED: […]
He held the crumpled piece of paper in his hands, trembling as he read it to her. Fighting back tears, he cleared the lump in his throat — a byproduct of emotions built up over the waiting season leading up to their wedding.

Nothing is worse than responding to client inquiries by sending out your pricing and getting crickets in return. Isn’t that so frustrating!? It almost feels personal.

I just thought I did it because I loved everything that came with it; the glamour, the fabulous photos, the interaction with people, etc. But the truth is, all that was surface level reasoning.

So, without further […]

I operated from the mindset of, “the more clients the better, right? ‘Cause that’s more money…?” NOPE. ??♀️ Your ideal clients are so very important, in fact: they’re the lifeblood of your business, and it’s vital that you not […]
A little over a year ago, I launched this pretty little site you’re on today! I seriously can’t believe it’s already been a year. But I REALLY can’t believe I’ve been blogging almost every single week – consistently. ? (If you’re a blogger, you know that’s somethin’ to party about!) ? There are 52 weeks […]
For those of you that don’t know, I actually started my photography business shooting a senior session. ? But I didn’t want to take those typical, cheesy, posed senior photos. I wanted to bring a powerful, bold, lioness-approach to ’em. (It’s safe to say that’s kinda my thing.) When Kira reached out about wanting […]
