Let’s make sure you pat your own back… What’s your biggest strength as a solopreneur?
I’m incredibly proud of my journey. I was raised in poverty, got my first job at the age of 11, and by 20 I was working multiple jobs to make ends meet. I worked my way through art school to get my photography degree and put in long hours at a day job. Then I’d come home and put in even more hours on my photography to bring it to fruition. If I fail tomorrow, I’ll be left with the lessons I’ve learned just to get to this point, and that’s honestly more than enough.

What’s the best business or money advice you ever got as a freelance photographer?
Get legal and do it now. DO NOT WAIT! Get your business registered, open a business account, and keep those personal and business expenses separate. When tax season comes, you will thank yourself!
