About this podcast
We’re professional photographers who’ve survived the unpredictable and grueling path that took us from rudimentary dreamers to fully self-employed business owners. From sleepless nights of editing to daring leaps of faith when quitting 9 to 5 jobs; we kept pushing for the dream to become reality and we did it together every step of the way.
In our 15+ years in the industry, we’ve acquired a wealth of information that goes far beyond camera settings and marketing dos and don’ts.
Welcome, we hope you’re ready to take a deep dive into life behind the lens and so much more!
