In this episode, we’re answering your questions you asked on our social media and sharing the things we wish someone would’ve told us when we first started in photography. From early mistakes and mindset struggles to pricing, boundaries, and finding our style — we’re talking about the lessons we had to learn the hard way.

If you’re in your beginning stages (or even a few years in), this is the conversation we wish we could’ve listened to sooner. Honest reflections, real growth, and what we know now that we didn’t then.

You asked — we’re answering! We hope you find it helpful!

In this episode, Abbey & Maddy chat with Gillian from Gillian Spiva Photography about her experience starting out in the photography world with an art degree and how she puts her own spin on her art, booking a destination wedding and what that process was like, and her very first styled shoot she hosted and how that experience went for her. And so much more!

In this episode, Abbey & Maddy chat with Sami from Sami Studios about her journey trusting the process with spending her savings and jumping full force into the photography world after running her own boutique. Starting her own studio and what that process was like for her. And how she manages being a mom, on top of also running the business side of things.
