#209: How Do I Know If I'm Ready to Start Charging for My Photography?


Listen Later

Have you ever wondered if you're ready to start CHARGING for your photography?

Maybe it feels too good to be true that you could make money doing something you love…

Or maybe you worry that you're not good enough to start making money…

In this episode, I share eight ways to tell if you're ready to start charging for your photography.

I also share how I got into photography, what my first sale was like, and what some of my "mind trash" told me along the way (maybe it will sound familiar to you).

When I was deciding to charge (and how much to charge) for my photography, my mind was filled with "what if?" questions like:

  • What if I'm not good enough yet?

  • What if she doesn't like them?

  • What if I charge too much?

But I turned that first $50 sale into a 26-year career as a professional photographer, selling over $3 million of photography services (without a photography degree).

So if you want to start charging for your photography but you're not sure where to start, hit play and get ready to feel confident about your decision!
