✨ Gearing Up for June ✨ It’s almost a new m ✨ Gearing Up for June ✨

It’s almost a new month—and that means a fresh chance to reset, refocus, and realign. Let’s borrow a little inspiration from the keyboard, shall we?

CONTROL – What can you actually control? Your mindset. Your effort. Your response. Start here.

ALT – What alternative ideas, strategies, or offers can you explore? Sometimes a small pivot brings big momentum.

DELETE – Outdated habits, cluttered routines, or tasks that drain your energy — clear them out.

Just like Control + Alt + Delete helps reboot a frozen screen, this combo can help reset your focus and energy for the month ahead.

👉 Ready to really show up for your business this June?
I’ve got something coming that will help you do exactly that—a free 5-day challenge designed to help photographers reboot their mindset and take action without burnout.

✨ Stay tuned—details drop soon!

June is coming… how are you stepping into it?

🎙️ Talk About It Tuesday: Imposter Syndrome 🎙️ Talk About It Tuesday: Imposter Syndrome

Ever find yourself stuck in this loop?
“Maybe if I changed my editing...
Got a new lens...
Posted more like her...
Then I’d finally feel confident.”

Photographers often ask:
“What am I doing wrong that my work doesn’t look like theirs?”
That question? It’s imposter syndrome in disguise—whispering that you’re always just one step behind.

But here’s the truth:
Confidence doesn’t come from constantly tweaking and chasing.
It comes from trusting your voice, honoring your growth, and showing up—even when doubt creeps in.

💬 What’s one thing imposter syndrome has tried to convince you to change lately?

“Anyone else feeling like bookings are slower th “Anyone else feeling like bookings are slower than usual right now?”

If you’re nodding your head, I just want to say—you’re not alone.
I’ve been hearing this from photographers all over lately, and the truth is… it’s not just you. It’s not that you’re doing something wrong. The economy is shifting, inquiries are quieter, and yes—it feels discouraging when you’re pouring your heart into your business and not seeing the momentum you expected.

But here’s what I also know: slow seasons are part of the rhythm of a creative business.
They’re not always fun, but they can be the start of something powerful if you use them to reset, reconnect, and take intentional action.

If things feel slower than usual on your end, I’m putting together something for June that’s specifically designed to help you get over that hump—with real strategies that actually work in today’s market.

Stay close—help is on the way. 💛
(And if you’re feeling it, drop a 💬 —I’d love to hear how you’re doing.)

The Art of Being a Salesperson👇🏻 Photographe The Art of Being a Salesperson👇🏻
Photographers, here’s the truth: if you don’t believe in what you’re offering, selling will always feel hard. 

Selling isn’t about pressure or pitches. It’s about standing in confidence—knowing your work matters, your experience is valuable, and your images are worth preserving.

💡 If you’re struggling to sell your sessions or products, start by asking:
✨ Do I love what I’m offering?
✨ Would I buy this myself?
✨ Am I serving?

Because when you believe in your work, you don’t need a perfect script—you just need your voice. 💕

Talk About It Tuesday - WEEK 4: Let’s Talk About Talk About It Tuesday - WEEK 4: Let’s Talk About Your Daily Energy

A question I hear all the time:
“How do you balance running a photography business with everything else in life?”

Here’s the truth—you don’t balance it perfectly every single day.
Some days, your creative energy pours into editing, client care, and running your business. Other days, your energy is needed at home—your kids are sick, your partner needs you, or you simply need to rest.

And that’s not failure. That’s being human.

Balance isn’t about doing it all every day. It’s about checking in with yourself and honoring where your energy needs to go, not just where you planned it to go.

So today, ask yourself:
🌿 Where is your energy naturally leaning right now?
🏡 What’s asking for your attention?
📸 What can wait or be simplified?

Let go of the guilt that comes with shifting focus. Your business and your life both matter—and they both deserve grace.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, second-guessed your light, or waited for perfect conditions—this is your reminder:
Confidence doesn’t come from perfection. It comes from showing up, practicing, and letting the light teach you.

There’s no such thing as bad light—only different stories waiting to be told. 💡
