Ever feel like you’re stuck in “safe mode” on wedding days – shooting what you think you should instead of what truly lights you up? Maybe you crave those soulful, layered images that make your heart skip a beat, but fear, burnout, or the pressure to deliver “must-have” shots keeps you playing small. If you’re ready to break free and capture the real essence of your couples, this episode is your permission slip.

I sat down with Raphaëlle Granger – documentary wedding photographer, educator, and all-around creative soul – to unpack how she ditched her safe zone, started shooting more fearlessly, and attracted dream clients who value her unique vision. 

Tune in to discover:

• Why playing it safe with your photos is holding you back and how Raphaëlle broke free to shoot with fearless creativity 
  
  
• Mini show-and-tell: watch us break down 3 of Raphaëlle’s recent wedding photos and how she got those soulful, candid shots (even when the days felt chaotic) 
  
  
• The second shooter hack that frees you up to take risks and experiment – without missing the “safe” shots 
  
  
• Tips to help your guests forget the camera is there so you capture genuine candids 
  
  
• How to attract hell yes clients (and gently turn away the ones who aren’t a fit)
  
  
• How Raphaëlle broke through her $3.5K pricing ceiling and started booking higher-paying clients who love her fearless style
