First of all, please remember: don’t compare yourself to experienced photographers. Oftentimes, those people have been in the industry for 15, 20, or 25+ years! They’ve most likely worked every single day of their career to get there. So why would you expect yourself to get there overnight?

So you don’t have to have the best, top-of-the-line equipment. You don’t have to purchase the most expensive courses. There are ways around this to DIY your wedding photography business… so you save money AND create beautiful images.

EDITING. It is commonly a photographer’s LEAST favorite part of the job! Wouldn’t it be great if we could just take the pictures and everything already be PERFECT? That just isn’t how photography works.

Needless to say, post processing is a HUGE part of photography - and what really makes your images unique and stand out from others.

In this video, I am going to tell you what I use in my wedding photography business that helps me get the job done more easily and efficiently!
