Not *everyone* experiences that “busy fall” photographers like to talk about. Maybe you’re reflecting on what this fall looked like for you and instead of being filled with clients sessions, it was kind of stale. If that’s you, you’re probably finding yourself wondering if there’s a way you can still capitalize on all the fall energy around photography when you’re not busy in the fall.
Maybe you’ve moved to a new city, or you’re on maternity leave, or just going through a lull. Whatever the reason, when you’re in that space and when you go to Instagram, you see everyone doing sessions and sharing fall work and editing cues and it can be discouraging. So instead of sitting around feeling terrible, let’s consider all the potential at your fingertips, instead!
Through personal stories and advice, we’ll create excitement around the slower seasons to use them well with the big picture in mind.
