On today's episode, I chat with Hope Taylor about how she went full-time in her photography business at age 18, why workshops and conferences are so important and how to decide which one's to go to, and how she makes her business work. She also gives us some great tips for social media and how to make it easier for your business. It was so fun to chat with our first photographer on the show!
About Hope:
A
few years ago, if you had told me I’d have the opportunity to be a
full-time photographer and business owner, I would have laughed.
Because, you see, a few years ago I was just a high school student
with a part-time job at a retail store. My life was a constant race
between stocking shelves, studying for AP classes, getting to cheer
practices, rushing through the halls and applying for universities.
The thought of being an entrepreneur seemed daunting and far off,
if not impossible. But, God laid on my heart that maybe something
should be different. Maybe the college I committed to attending
wasn’t where I was supposed to be. Maybe, just maybe, the way I
pictured my life was not what He had mapped out for me. So, one
morning, I made a big decision: I was revoking my admission to a
4-year business university and pursuing this crazy, seemingly
unattainable dream full time. And I was going to chase after those
dreams like a freight train. I feel so thankful every day to have
the opportunity to do what I love through serving and loving my
clients. And while photography is something that I love and adore -
creating lasting relationships with my clients is where my heart
will always lie. And, in my journey to pursue my purpose and build
a business rooted in love, I’ve found an even deeper passion for
educating and equipping other photographers to do the same.
