As a seasoned photo vet, Jessica shares valuable advice for any photographer who is just getting started in the field, including figuring what works for you, and not what works for other photographers (1:45). She boldly dives in to charging what you’re worth, figuring out what that looks like, and making sure you’re running a sustainable business, (3:20); the value of taking business and tax workshops as part of your continuing education (7:30); the importance of being choosy with your time (8:50); being smart about your overhead expenses (11:20); educational resources and workshops she recommends, and those which have disappointed her (13:50); pricing strategies within your market (19:00); and being smart about taxes! (Which absolutely no one likes doing, but are entirely unavoidable when running your own business.) (22:40)

Jessica Blex Bonus Episode - A Love Letter to Photographers

In this episode, Jessica and Kelly discuss Blex’s journey to where she is now, the struggles she has faced over the last nine years as a wedding photographer (including forgetting to take care of herself first, and how fitness and self-care completely turned that around!), the mistakes she has made and learned from (including a shattered hard drive and lost pictures. Everyone’s worst nightmare, right?) coping with creative burnout as a wedding professional, the immense value of ongoing education and learning from others in the field, her philosophy on a timeless aesthetic, her challenging transition into film, her gear, and fantastic advice on what is truly important on a couple’s wedding day.
