They specifically outline the steps on how to set it...Read full review »

Great content and questions from host of you can get past the cringe moaning and disingenuous repeating her words (yeah- yeah, ok-ok, sure-sure)

ToriT0o0o0o0o0Lo0ove via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/05/21
A good mix of creative and business aspects of photography. A bit American focused at times, for a company that seems to target an international audience they could try to be more inclusive of the rest of the world 😜 but otherwise definitely worth the time!
