Every year around this time, creatives and especially wedding photographers wonder what next year will be like. Some are confident and prepared for the next year: finances are in order, lots of clients are booked for next year, and they can rest easy during the holidays. 

For others, it's not that simple. Maybe it's an inconsistent year or you haven't booked what you thought or what you need to make life work. The emails come in, but you're not hearing back from clients after you send them your pricing or maybe they've decided to go with someone else. You feel hopeless. 

In this episode, I discuss why you're not being booked, reveal data from over 600 photographers and where they're at for next year and what you can do now to level up during the holiday season.

When you first start any hobby or business, you begin ironing out your processes. Everything from how you collect payments to prepping for a particular gig. Surprises happen and then you learn from those surprises. Eventually, you get into a groove. 

But years from now, you, you may need to make bigger and bolder changes. That entire groove you were in, may need to change. It's scary, but sometimes it determines how successful your business will be in the future. 

In this episode, my good friend Sarah Bradshaw is honest about the decisions she thought she was "supposed" to make and how after coaching and researching, she decided against making those decisions. Sarah is an incredibly successful and magical wedding photographer in the Washington DC area.

If you're like me, the word "brand" makes you want to throw up in your mouth a little bit. It gets thrown around and honestly, I think that makes many of us not want to work on it. 

But the truth is we can't hide the facts that 1) we have a brand 2) it does have importance and 3) we want the brand to reflect what clients we are looking to attract, so we can continue to enjoy what we do. 

In this episode, photographer and food-lover Lauren Carnes describes how her background in branding and marketing has helped shape her photography business as well as shape it over the years to reflect her current passions. If you're dying for a change in your business or simply want to try something new, this episode is for you.
