“We’re not supposed to talk about money” I’ve heard that phrase many times in my life and no wonder, I used to feel so awkward when the conversation about money with my clients arose.

But the reality is that if you are running a business, you better get comfortable having conversations about money, after all, if you make no money with your photography business you might be back at that boring corporate job you once had.

In this solo episode, I answered some great questions regarding money and business, and I hope that my own personal experiences guide you in a positive way regarding your own money and how to have positive conversations with clients.

Friend, Today’s episode is a bit different as I invited a previous client of mine to share his (and his husband’s) experience as a same-sex couple planning a wedding.

I photographed Patrick & Jose’s wedding in March 2019 and I wanted to bring their perspectives as clients to the podcast, so we can all hear how clients feel, what they are looking for, and what lessons can we learn from their experience planning a wedding, to make our businesses better.

You can see some images of their wedding here: Patrick + Jose’s Wedding
