   27: Collab Episode with Keep It Moving Podcast

   Today I have something really special for you, my darling listener. I did a collaboration with Alison Bell and Melissa Arlena from the Keep It Moving podcast. I am in a transition of moving my business to San Diego and knew these incredible ladies were the ones to ask for help. On the episode we go over how to move your business step by step. We go over SEO, networking, preparing for new locations, and more. Chalk full of very helpful information, this episode is helpful whether you are moving your business, or are wanting to up your presence in your current city. Takeaways When moving a business, it is important to focus on rebuilding the website and improving SEO for the new location. Managing two businesses simultaneously can be challenging, but it is possible with proper planning and organization. Building an email list and networking on Instagram can help attract potential clients in the new location. Creating lead magnets, such as downloadable guides, can be an effective way to build an email list and provide valuable content to potential clients. Blogging once a week, mixing up content with FAQs and location-specific posts, can help improve SEO and attract organic traffic.

   26: Age is a Super Power in Family Photography with Natasha Sewell

   Natasha and I met because we were both older photographers (I go into the story on the Podcast). So it seemed like the obvious choice to ask my dear friend to join me in a discussion about age. A topic in our business that just isn't talked about. Aging in photography. How being an older photographer is both hard and a strength. How getting started with our photography businesses later gave us a leg up. And because of our age, our why's are so different than the norm. In a profession that is filled with 20 and 30 somethings, diving into this topic is bringing ageism out of the shadows and into the spotlight. A very welcomed thing! Takeaways Being an older woman in the photography industry can bring both benefits and challenges. Age can be a superpower in family photography, as it brings wisdom, experience, and a sense of calm. Connecting with clients is not necessarily harder because of age; in fact, it can be an advantage as clients see older photographers as wise and experienced. Physical limitations, such as getting down on the floor for long periods of time, can be a challenge for older photographers. Authenticity and relatability can still be achieved by older photographers, as they have gone through similar stages of parenthood and can offer guidance and understanding to clients.
