Let’s be real—these are the questions photographers actually need answers to. In this episode, I’m answering 7 burning listener questions about the messy, behind-the-scenes realities of running a photography business. From boundaries to branding, awkward sales objections to hiring help—this one is brutally honest, highly tactical, and full of stories that’ll make you laugh, nod, and rethink your workflow.

In this episode:
🔥 Why boundaries aren’t stop signs—and how I handle texts at 10 PM
🔥 Who to hire first (and why outsourcing doesn’t mean you’re lazy)
🔥 My take on a la carte pricing vs. collections (spoiler: I’m a Chick-fil-A combo meal kinda girl)
🔥 The exact script to handle “my husband won’t let me” objections like a pro
🔥 Whether you need to network to grow (and why I was blacklisted for not showing up)
🔥 My drop-style booking process (and why I don’t do discovery calls for portraits)
🔥 How to build a brand people want to date (and obsess over)

Whether you’re just starting or scaling fast, this episode is your permission slip to run your business in a way that actually works for you.
