Summary

We welcome back yet again Lauren Stefaniak Smith, who recently served as chair of Photo Studio Ops for Henry Stewart’s smash hit New York event, which is crazy to say was even bigger than London back in March, but it was. Lauren and Daniel tackled the subject of onboarding and training for creative team members, which has as many elements to it as there are distinct creative roles, but as usual, Lauren knows exactly how to break it down.

Summary

Matthew Schulert was lead photographer and one of the earliest studio team members at HauteLook, a flash sale site that Nordstrom bought in 2011. Matthew and Daniel talk about the the history of that studio as it grew from just 3 sets, to over 10 times that size across many iterations of studios throughout Southern California. Why is this episode called building the plane in the air? No one really knew exactly how to build a high volume e-comm studio to support a flash sale site back then, so everyone had to figure out as they went, and as we mention during the episode: At that time, no one was talking to each other.

Summary

At that the time this episode releases, Henry Stewarts Photo Studio Operations New York is just over a week away. Joining Daniel for this episode is the chair of the photo studio ops track, and old friend of the podcast Lauren Stefaniak Smith, creative operations director at Cricut. For anyone keeping score at home, Lauren was with Victoria’s Secret the last time she was on this podcast, so we caught up in advance of Photo Studio Ops to talk about her move from VS to Cricut and what advice she had for others who might be considering a change.
