Hellooooooo! A new episode of the podcast is now available!
I sat down to talk over the phone with my friend, Leighton DaCosta, about having an ‘interstate mobile’ photography studio (and what that means for your business when you work across state lines) as well as discussing teaching workshops in foreign countries.
He just taught a workshop in Jamaica focusing on marketing/shooting ‘transient clients’ – think destination weddings and portrait sessions. It’s really interesting. Give the episode a listen!
