Description: I’m so excited to bring you a taste of the portfolio review I did for family photographers in conjunction with Art of Curation. Art of Curation is my course that shows you how to spot your great images in a sea of good images, and now when you get that course you also get the recording of this call included so you can see me reviewing 20+ photog’s work, all different styles- documentary, big families, newborns, maternity, we even had a pet photographer in there.
The call ended up being 3 hrs whoops so this week’s episode is just a few soundbites. If you want the whole thing, go to brookebschultz.com/artofcuration and you’ll be able to watch it on 2x while you edit or break it up into yummy bite size chunks for yourself so you can really interalize the concepts of what makes a strong image technically, and how to put strong images together to tell the most powerful story for potential clients, how to cut your portfolio down from 200 to 30 images, why I passed over specific images, what I’d do to milk just a few images if you have only 5-10 that you’re really proud of in the new style you want to shoot, and of course so much more.
Check it all out at brookebschultz.com/artofcuration and please enjoy these fun sound bites, I know they’re gonna be great takeaways for you in curating your own images.

If you are a multi passionate creator this episode is especially gonna be for you, because it’s an exercise in self trust, in doing it messy, in practical tips of how to get back in your alignment and make what you’re meant to make.
We’re really meant to be in fullest expression of our authentic selves. The rosebushes in my neighborhood are blooming so huge and so glorious, i have to walk by them and smell them every day. And no one is looking at those roses and saying how dare you grow, how dare you bloom so beautifully and so abundantly. All of nature conspires to make the rose bushes bloom that abundantly. The water, the sunlight, even the cold of winter–they are play their part in helping the roses bloom because that's what roses are meant to do. You are meant to be the fullest expression of yourself creatively.
And my guess is that you might be playing small, at some point, in some way, because our human noise sometimes gets in the way, so today’s episode is for cutting through that noise and getting back to your business which is blooming ever more brightly, with all your fragrance, color, and full height.
