| 2/25/26 | Am I Invited or is My Camera? | Some invitations feel good. Others feel like a job you never agreed to. If you have ever been asked to “bring your camera” to a gathering you hoped to simply enjoy, you know exactly what I mean. In this solo episode, I am opening up about something many photographers keep quiet about. It is that sinking feeling when you realize you were invited because of what you can provide, not because they truly wanted you there. We talk about why this hits so hard, how easily resentment builds, and the q... | 7m 25s | ||||||
| 2/18/26 | Branding, Burnout & Breaking Free: How Understanding Money and Brand Archetypes Can Revitalize Your Photography Business with Stacey Owen | Your photography brand isn’t just about colors and logos—it’s a reflection of who you are. But what if you don’t fully understand yourself yet? In this episode, branding expert Stacey dives into the different money and brand archetypes that shape many photographers and how these archetypes influence your business more than you realize. She’s sharing how, instead of boxing us in, these archetypes can help us expand our business, our creativity, and our branding, especially if things have felt ... | 30m 37s | ||||||
| 2/11/26 | Rising From the Rubble: When Your Business Feels Like It’s at Rock Bottom | “Rock bottom in business is not a sign of failure. It’s a signpost.” At some point, every creative entrepreneur will face a season when business feels like it’s crumbling: the clients aren’t booking, the passion is gone, or life circumstances make it feel impossible to keep going. In this episode, I share how to rise from those “rubble” seasons with honesty, clarity, and resilience. You’ll hear my perspective on why rock bottom isn’t the end; it’s often the beginning of building something mor... | 6m 53s | ||||||
| 2/4/26 | When You Stop “Shoulding” and Start Listening with Fruzsina Jonas | There comes a moment in every photographer’s journey when the rules stop working, even though you are doing everything “right.” The templates feel tight. The “right” way feels wrong. And the business advice you are trying to follow does not actually match the people sitting in front of you. In this episode, I sit down with Fruzsina of Captured Magic to talk about what happens when you stop building your business around what you should do and start listening to what your clients are actually a... | 37m 53s | ||||||
| 1/28/26 | Building a Profitable Photography Studio Without Burnout with Talea Wright | Pricing is not just a numbers game. It is the foundation of a sustainable photography business. In this episode, I chat with Talea Wright to have an honest conversation about pricing, cost of doing business, and what it truly takes to build a profitable studio that lasts. Talea shares her experience opening her first studio at twenty years old, navigating pricing mistakes early on, and learning how to charge in a way that supports both her clients and her life. We talk about why so many photo... | 38m 45s | ||||||
| 1/21/26 | The Art of Connection in Photography with Russell Jackson | Connection is what turns a photograph into a memory. In this episode, I sat down with Russell Jackson to talk about the power of connection in photography and why the way your clients feel during a session matters just as much as the final images. Russell shares how prioritizing presence, emotional safety, and genuine interaction creates photographs that move people long after the session ends. We talk about how connection shows up in subtle ways like touch, proximity, and quiet moments, why ... | 53m 14s | ||||||
| 1/14/26 | Mind Your Own Business: Artistic Clarity with Victoria Burcusel | Simplicity is not just an aesthetic choice. It is a business approach that can give photographers more clarity, more consistency, and more confidence. For newborn photographer Victoria Burcusel, removing the excess helped her strengthen her style, streamline her process, and build a studio experience that truly reflects her values. In this episode, Victoria shares her journey from Romania to New Zealand to Australia and how each chapter shaped her creative identity. We talk about choosing a n... | 41m 17s | ||||||
| 1/7/26 | From Trend Cycles to Original Creations: How the Newborn Nerds Built a Thriving Prop Brand | Props come and go. Trends cycle in and out. But creativity, craftsmanship, and connection are what truly make a photography brand last. In this episode, I am joined by sisters Lindsey Stock and Amy Guenther of The Newborn Nerds. We talk about what really goes into designing timeless props, why color never goes out of style, how to use trends without losing yourself, and the details that elevate even the simplest setups. Lindsey and Amy open up about embracing growth, navigating copycats, stay... | 33m 56s | ||||||
| 12/31/25 | How to Build a High-End In-Home Newborn Brand with Chelsea Hickey | Photographers sometimes assume luxury is reserved for studios, but today’s guest proves that a high-end experience can thrive right inside your clients’ homes. Chelsea Hickey, the award-winning photographer behind Chicky Little Photography, specializes in in-home newborn storytelling sessions outside of Boston. Averaging $7,000 newborn sales and $4,000 across all genres, she’s built a thriving luxury brand rooted in service, simplicity, and confident systems. In this conversation, Chelsea sha... | 35m 02s | ||||||
| 12/24/25 | How Do I Know I'm Ready to Charge? | “You will never feel ready. Ready is not a feeling. It is a decision.” Every photographer reaches a moment when they wonder if they are truly ready to charge. The doubt, the imposter syndrome, the fear of disappointing someone. It all shows up right when you are trying to step into the next version of your business. In this episode, I share the honest truth about knowing when you are ready to charge, what actually matters before you take that leap, and what does not matter nearly as much as y... | 6m 36s | ||||||
| 12/17/25 | Long Form Sessions, Audacious Self-Love & The Art of Noticing with Rachel Larsen Weaver | Some artists teach by accident. Others teach because they can’t help but pay attention: to connection, to people, and to themselves. Today’s guest, Rachel Larsen Weaver, is absolutely the latter. Rachel is an artist, educator, and photographer whose work celebrates audacious self-love, body affirmation, and the beauty of everyday life. In this conversation, we explore long form sessions, the power of noticing, how motherhood shapes creativity, and why self-portraiture is often the key to acce... | 43m 24s | ||||||
