If you've ever wondered how I set up my week and spend my days, you'll love this episode! As photographers, I thought you'd like to see what a 6-figure wedding photographer does in a week. I hope this gives you a fun behind-the-scenes peek at the ins and outs of my life. You'll hear it all, what I focus on, what I struggle with, and how I handle all of it! 

I share it all including:

  • How I plan out my days so I get the most out of them
  • A behind-the-scenes peek into working on my new course I'm creating all about how I document wedding days authentically
  • How I'm getting prepped to create a community of Shine + Thrive listeners and to show up live for you more often to answer your questions live!
  • Being honest when things don't go as planned with working out
  • How I stay organized with posting to Instagram
  • The planner I'm OBSESSED with and how I use it
  • When during the week I outsource certain tasks to my editor and my VA

TIMESTAMPS

[03:35]
Friday morning, I started the day with my protein shake. Recorded a snippet for this podcast. Reviewed edits from the Image Salon and sent it to my virtual assistant. Got my hair done after 8 months. Rory and I went to a 15k. And then I got ready for a wedding for the next day.

[12:50] Saturday morning was a wedding day. I took a nature stroll before going to the wedding and went over any notes that I have to remind myself of the couple's story. The wedding ended up right on time and enjoyed an evening with Rory.

[16:08] I made sure to back up the images from yesterday and then I sent the catalog to my VA. I put away the laundry, cleaned the kitchen, and vacuumed. Purchased groceries online for the first time. Did yoga with Rory and went a really long walk together with Abby. And since it is a Sunday, I made sure to plan my week ahead using my Full Focus Planner.

Please see the rest of the timestamps in the show notes HERE.
