Have you ever wondered how the world of photography has evolved over the years, particularly in the context of staying connected and relevant? Join me and my wonderful guest, Christa Reed, as we take a virtual stroll down memory lane and reflect on the days of photography past while also shedding light on its present and future. We also touch on the significance of networking and the role of social media in this ever-changing landscape. And for budding photographers out there, we share our thoughts on today's go-to platform! In this candid conversation, we delve into the idea of 'perfection' and its impact on our work. Christa and I laugh, ponder, and let you in on a vital secret: no life or business is perfect! Social media may paint a rosier picture, but it's the behind-the-scenes action that truly makes or breaks a business. We also talk about the daunting yet exciting transition from one creative project to another, a sentiment that resonates with many photographers, us included. Finally, Christa and I get to the heart of what inspires us in our work. For me, suiting up with my camera feels like stepping into a superhero persona! We discuss the importance of maintaining a positive mindset, even on days when things don't go as planned. We also touch on the role of a business coach.

And, yes, that's part of our job, but the ultimate part isn't taking a photo, it's giving the photo to the customer.""If you have lost touch with the intention behind what you're doing, it's going to feel very different to you than if you're in alignment with your intention.""Some things take 5 minutes, some things take 50 minutes, some things take 50 years." 3Connect with ChristaWebsite - https://www.christareedphotography.com/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/ChristaReedPhotography/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/christareedphotog/ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/christa-reed-9907b148/ 📸 Get a jump start growing your biz!
