Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this. Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.

The lowest lowball inquiry I’ve ever had as an elopement photographer. A thread. 🧵 1️⃣ Couple inquires about a local elopement. They selected "I've seen starting pricing" in the contact form. #art #photography #business

If you’re a photographer and you still have an @gmail business email, I beg you, please get your own domain email. It automatically increases your appeal & professionalism. #photography #business

As a full time professional photographer, I love the images I create. Then I see so many people get insane engagement on their images (comments, saves, etc.) compared to a measly couple of dozen likes I get and then I go “Oh, maybe my images aren’t as good as I think”. I hate social media.
