Elena S Blair - Embracing the Term Mom with a Camera Finding Focus

Today’s guest on the podcast is Elena Sanchez Blair a lifestyle family and newborn photographer, and educator, based in Seattle, Washington. This episode is a special one to me personally, as an encounter with a course by Elena was my own personal entry into photography. We chat about her journey from new mom to a successful family and newborn photographer and educator and how she got her family and newborn photography education business started. We also chat about community over competitionand the importance of family, wedding and newborn photography as an art and us being historians of our generation. Elena speaks about the unicorn that is balance and her views on this. She tells us how she's always been working from home in her photography business around her kids seeing her being her own boss. Elena keeps family photography as simple and real as possible, how she got to this approach to her family photography and the advice about her work that changed her life. She was previously a NICU nurse and she chats about how this affected her approach to newborn photography. She also shares what parts of her business have been helped the most by outsourcing, her approach to social media and how much of her private life to share and about her six month group coaching mastermind.
