Last week I put out a podcast episode that is TOTALLY relevant for brides and photographers alike. It was incredibly well received which encouraged me to make sure that all of my clients had access to this info.
So here we are!
If you've never checked out an episode of You Might Not Like It before...where. have. you. been! There is no time like the present.
A few things you should know. First, I launched the pod back in November and have been pouring bits and pieces of my soul into it since then.
Second, there's no niche, meaning it's not always photography specific, (it's not even always business specific!), so make sure to take a spin around once you've finished listening to Episode 28 - Engagement Session Secrets! Some of my favourite episodes ever are about relationships, goal setting challenges, and some are simply about storytelling.

Third, if You Might Not Like It had a mantra, it would be: less fluff, no BS or fake enthusiasm, more hustle, and nicer self-talk. There are no rules, which means episodes could be 10 minutes or an hour depending on the content, which makes it perfectly flexible for your busy life.
