Notes From the Studio
A 6-Week Creative Business Series for Photographers & Creatives
If you’ve ever wished you had someone to walk you through the real foundations of a creative business — pricing, licensing, systems, confidence, portfolio direction — this series is for you.
Notes From the Studio is a 6-week email series where I share the exact lessons, frameworks, and mindset shifts I’ve learned from running an active commercial photography business and photography studio.
No fluff, no generic advice — just clear, actionable guidance that actually moves your business forward.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
Over six weeks, we’ll cover:

Week 3 — Licensing Made Simple
Understanding usage and protecting the value of your work — without the overwhelm.
Week 4 — Systems That Support Your Creativity
The tools and workflows that keep my studio organized and my brain calm.
Week 5 — Portfolio Power
How to curate your portfolio for the clients you want next.
Week 6 — Sustainability & Community
Why longevity comes from support, boundaries, and connection — not hustle.
