Hey photographers! It’s that time of year when things start slowing down. Here are three things you can do to make your off-season profitable this year!

  1. Redo your website. Elevating your website and updating it with recent work is HUGE. You might not think so, but your website sells you on your clients. Make sure your favorite work is being represented there!
  2. Offer mentor sessions or invest in education yourself. If you’re still working on building your business from the ground up, use this time to invest in education. The more you learn now, the better you’ll be for next season. Whether that’s investing in editing courses, a mentorship or a posing course, brush up on your skills. If you’re confident in your business skills, offer to mentor those who aren’t! This is a great way to bring in an extra cash flow, and a good way to fill your time pouring into others.
  3. Photograph for yourself. This is honestly the best way to avoid burnout. Wake up each day and decide to photograph something different. Try photographing landscapes if you photograph people all the time. Chase light. Photograph shadows. Try something new like using fractals or prisms. This is your time to get creative so that your clients next year can really benefit from your skills and talents!

Hopefully this gave you a good idea of a few things to try this year in your off-season, or gave you some new ideas of your own.

You’re killing it! Keep up the amazing work!

Lauren, Levi, and Lukas joined me for the most wonderful morning on their family farm. We had so much fun chasing chickens, driving through their back fields, and hanging out in their house with their pups. They are expecting their second little one any day now and we cannot wait for them to arrive!

Dan and Tori chose downtown Harrisburg for their winter January engagement session. we started out at the Harrisburg capital outside before making our way inside.

Micah + Ginny are some of our dearest friends. We’ve known Micah since we were kids, and Ginny since they made in 2020. We photographed their engagement, and their wedding, and last weekend we photographed their maternity photos. Soon, we’ll photograph their little babe! We love these two people dearly — it was such an […]

Logan + Makayla chose Camp YoliJwa in Doubling Gap as the background for their engagement session. We had a breezy beautiful fall day and managed to get the last of the fall colors before the leaves all fell. It was been an honor to be friends with these two throughout the years, watching them grow […]
