From Geneva, NY ➡️ back to Florida with months of my mortgage paid 💰 Pulled up with a $30 Amazon backdrop stand, a Lifetouch-style background straight from the school photo days, and a couple of lights... and left with over $x,xxx+ in my pocket — all from word of mouth 😤📢 Here’s exactly how it went down: 🧠 The Setup * $30 backdrop stand (the cheap one off Amazon 😅) * Old-school Lifetouch 360 backdrop (yep, like school picture day!) * 33” white umbrella + strip box + round diffuser for clean, pro lighting 🎯 The Game Plan * $50 per headshot (includes retouching) * Over 100 people — you do the math 🧠💸 * Threw in bonus shots of the event — overdeliver always 💡 The Mindset Shift

This whole gig came from people I met back in college — YEARS ago!
They keep referring me, even outta state.
