Building a Thriving Photography Business: A Conversation with Morgan Leatherwood


Listen Later

I’m so excited because I have one of my best friends, Morgan Leatherwood on the podcast today! Morgan is a former teacher turned photographer based in Charlotte, North Carolina and her business is Morgan Amanda Photography. She started off as a wedding photographer and has since stepped away to focus primarily on small business branding and family portraits in her studio. On top of being a photographer, she also hosts 2 podcasts, Queen City Connect and Love That For You.

Morgan shares her story of going full-time in her photography business, and how she creates an amazing client experience where each and every client feels valued. She also talks about the importance of networking with other small businesses, with a genuine interest in getting to know them. She also discusses her experience with hiring a coach when she first started her business, as well as her pricing strategies, and up-selling in the portrait and branding photography business.

In this episode, we chat about:

  • Morgan’s journey into photography
  • The growth she made from hiring a coach
  • Making the shift from photographer to businesswoman
  • How Morgan built connections when she moved to a new city
  • Transitioning from shoot-and-burn photographer to full-service photographer
  • Providing an incredible client experience
  • Charging your worth
