For a long time, I thought working more was the only way to grow my business. More shoots, more hours, more pushing.

In this episode, I’m sharing a quiet, honest chat about why I changed my business model, what wasn’t working anymore, and how choosing a kinder, more sustainable way of working has changed everything.

A gentle reminder that success doesn’t have to come at the cost of your life 🤍

I’ve just put my prices up — and I’m right in that familiar post-price-rise wobble.

In this episode, I’m sharing an honest, in-the-moment chat about the self-doubt that can show up after raising your prices, why it happens every time, and how I’m reminding myself of what changed for the better the last time I did this.

A gentle listen for photographers building sustainable, aligned businesses and learning to trust themselves as they grow 🤍

Welcome to The Lifted Lens — a podcast for motherhood and family photographers who want to grow a successful business without sacrificing their life, energy, or wellbeing.

I’m Sophie, a family photographer, mentor, and mum, and in this short intro episode I’m sharing what this podcast is all about — why I created it, who it’s for, and what you can expect from future episodes.

This podcast blends practical business guidance with mindset, intuition, and gentle woo — covering everything from pricing, confidence, boundaries, and systems, to manifestation, journaling, moon cycles, and trusting yourself in business.

If you’re building your photography business around school runs, nap times, and real life — and you want growth that feels calm, aligned, and sustainable — you’re in the right place.

✨ Strategy meets soul.
✨ Business that fits your life.

New episodes coming soon.
