Show Notes
Have you ever got a sign from the universe that you just needed to change everything up, only to find that your family & friends are worried you might be going a little crazy?
 

This was me.

After reaching a position where was running a really successful wedding studio in a lucrative market with seemingly endless opportunities.... I decided to uproot and move states... To start anew.

Then after 6 years of working my butt off to create a portrait studio where I was consistently shooting 130 portraits a year with very healthy averages (the likes most photographers only dream of), I then walked into work one day and announced that I wanted to shut the studio completely...

"And go all in on what? Personal Branding... what even is that???"

Here I was in the summer of 2019, explaining (again) to my family and friends why it is that I wanted to uproot everything and follow my intuition and go all in on Personal Branding Photography.

I am lucky as my intuition (and business acumen) has led me to make some pretty savvy business decisions over the years.

I have transitioned from film to digital, weddings to portraits to now Personal Branding and always been fairly adaptable as I went along.

If you are feeling like you want to shake things up in your photography business, perhaps are considering offering Personal Branding or like me are ready to go all in on it then listen in.

In this Episode I Share:
● How growing up in a photography family made me want to run for the hills
● How photographing 80+ weddings per year and causes overwhelm & burnout (duh)
● How being photographed and mentored by Sue Bryce changed the course of my career
● How I maximise my time (and have boundaries) whilst still delivering value to my client
● The pros and cons of saying goodbye to weddings & portraits to focus solely on Personal Branding
