Feeling burned out or stuck in your photography business? One thing can change your work, your profits, and your life (and it might not be what you expect…)

 

On this week’s Joycast, I’m chatting with a Stockton, California photographer who went from shooting 120 sessions a year to embracing a boutique business model that brought her more time, joy, and income than ever!

 

Here’s a little of what we’ll cover:

 

• Why high-volume sessions might be holding you back from real profits

• The biggest mindset hurdle photographers face when raising prices

• How to transition clients to a boutique model (without losing them!)

• The power of finding the right clients who value your work

Plus:

• Stories of clients who happily paid 3x more than before

• How to let go of fear and embrace your worth

• Practical tips to reclaim your time and create a business you love

If you’re ready to stop chasing endless sessions and start building a profitable, sustainable photography business, this episode is packed with inspiration and actionable advice to get you there.
