Can you “still” make money in photography these days? Asking for a friend. And since so many seem to be asking this question. This much I know, yes. You can. We’re doing it in our studio. And we’re in Costa Rica for three months. Go figure. I believe a lot has to do with mindset […]
“Do it for the money…”
I’ve said it a million times before: “Having a talent is worthlessunless you know what to do with it.” That’s a quote from Charlie Chaplin. Search out his quotes (google him) and you will find some nuggets. Here’s another quote from Charlie Chaplin: “I went into the business for the money, and the art grew […]
Existential crisis anyone?
Have you ever had one? You know, a crisis? As in, what is life all about? Why, oh why am I here? Why am I on this beach when I should be back home marketing my photography studio? And other compelling struggles? My life has been a long series of struggles. I’m sure you can […]

My first wedding and first near nervous breakdown….(how I got through it)
“Self-belief is the catalyst for spectacular achievement.” ~Robin Sharma~ My heart was pounding. My legs were like rubber. My brain was exploding in a flurry of stress and fear…all cascading down onto my young fragile and vulnerable soul. I was freaking out in a big way. I tried as best I could to keep up […]
