It's that time of the week again and today we are talking to Sarah Tulej, a

brand photographer originally from the UK currently living in Rotterdam. From a

young age, she had a passion for photography but it wasn't until she was in her

30's that she took a career change course in London (trust me, it's a good

story) that she decided to take the jump into professional photography. Sarah's

story is really inspiring and I hope you enjoy it! 

On this interview we spoke about:

* Her journey to become a professional photographer

* The particular set of skills that separate Sarah from other photographers

(spoiler alert! It's not tech related)

* How she build her skills following her curiosity

* The research she did before taking the plunge into a new career

* The financial aspect of changing careers

* Sarah's experience as a mentor and where she draws the line between mentor

and teacher
