346: Wedding Photographers Self Care Guide with Alicia Parks


Listen Later

I’m so excited to share an episode with you I wish I could have listened to her during my 12 year wedding business.


I sat down with the incredibly talented Alicia Parks to talk about something we don’t discuss nearly enough in photography: how to stay calm, energized, and grounded on high-pressure wedding days.


Alicia made the leap from corporate America into photography, and she’s built an amazing career by pairing beautiful work with a strong mindset and wellness practices. She is one of those people who brings a calm, steady energy into every room — and every wedding day.


Alicia is a California-based wedding photographer whose work has been featured in California Wedding Day and Vogue. She was also named Northern California’s Best Wedding Photographer by California Wedding Day Magazine, and she just landed her very first magazine cover, which hits Barnes & Noble this spring (and yes, she still blushes when she says it out loud).


She’s also a certified yoga instructor, which shows up in the way she approaches both life and photography.


She shares a six simple habits she swears by on the wedding day to show up relaxed and ready, including showing up early — give yourself time to decompress, hydrating all day, and a stretching routine after the event.


In this episode, we go deep into:

• How Alicia stays calm and focused during long, intense wedding days

• Why mindset and body care matter just as much as gear and technique

• How yoga and mindfulness have changed the way she shows up for clients

• Simple ways to help your couples feel relaxed and supported


If you shoot weddings or portraits or any other type of photography that takes energy and focus, I.E. want a career that feels good as well as successful, I think you’re going to love this conversation.
