I wouldn’t rely on Instagram reach. I wouldn’t wait for inquiries to come in. I’d focus on control. I’d lock in predictable work first — schools, teams, parents, repeat clients. Anything that pays reliably, even if it’s not exciting. I’d simplify my offers so people don’t have to think. Clear pricing. Clear deliverables. Clear turnaround. I’d prioritize speed over perfection. Money comes from finishing, not endlessly refining. And I’d follow up — because most money doesn’t come from the first message. It comes from the second. Photography can absolutely pay the bills. But only if you treat it like a business, not a gamble. #photography #money #presets #socialmedia #videography
