Blacklight

AD and Levi discuss the scary things that happen inside of photography. What is the role that we place on danger and incorporating dangerous situations for our clients?

As we move into the booking season, we talk about the things that surround that time of the year.

Levi and AD catch people up on what they've been working on plus have their first session of Camera Talk.

Today we talk with Rachel Havel, a photographer from Colorado Springs, about mindset, focus, and what it takes to continue to run a creative business that stands out. She has put in the time, energy, and work to get noticed and hear about her journey as a photographer to start (and continue!) shooting work she loves.

This week we talk with photographer Benj Haisch about what success means, what it takes to stand out, and we also learn a lot about quicksand!

You can see more of Benj's work at: www.benjhaisch.com

This week, we talk about our favorite foods and when that has gone horribly wrong at weddings.

This week, we talk about some things that give us anxiety, the need for advertising (or at least, brand awareness) and then some thoughts on how to actually close in a sale.

Daniel is one of the founders of SmartAlbums—while SmartAlbums is still our absolute favorite software for creating albums, they recently came into a bit of a PR nightmare when they launched SmartAlbums 2019. Daniel discusses this debacle, how they handled it, and also the origins of Pixellu and SmartAlbums. His journey is profound and he has deep insights for so many entrepreneurs today. Also, if you stick around, you'll find a special coupon code ONLY for Blacklight listeners!
