    what happens if success DISAPPEARS? ft scott proposki

    Scott Proposki has photographed for National Geographic, Sports Illustrated, HBO, the White House, and so many massive brands and teams, and then experienced a complete business and identity reset when the pandemic hit. We talk about what it’s really like to lose momentum after building something big, how identity can quietly get wrapped up in our work, and why sustainable success for photographers has so much more to do with leadership, clarity, and problem solving than just “good photos.” Scott shares the behind the scenes of rebuilding from scratch, why comparison can derail even the most experienced creatives, and how focusing on one thing (instead of 32 ideas at once 🙃) can change everything. If you’re a photographer who feels stuck, overwhelmed, burnt out, or just unsure of what the next step should be, this episode is such an encouraging reminder that your story, your experience, and your perspective actually matter more than you think. This one is full of mindset shifts, practical wisdom, and a lot of “oh wow, I needed that” moments. You’re going to love Scott and the heart behind what he’s building. _______ 🎉MENTORSHIPS If you’re craving direction in your photo business, want real, honest guidance, or just wanna hang with me in person—my 1:1 mentorships are open (in person or virtual)! https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/services LET’S CONNECT 🫶 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexblakephoto TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/Alexblakephoto Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexblakephotography STUFF I SWEAR BY 🫡 My Gear, Bible Stuff, + Life Faves: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alexblakeotto Pass Gallery – 1 Month Free: https://alexblakephotography.passgallery.com/referral AI Editing (30-Day Free Trial): https://aftershoot.com/friends/?ref=alexotto HoneyBook Discount (Get organized!): https://share.honeybook.com/alex89263 Merch, Presets, & More: https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/ PHOTO CAMP INFO 🌊⛺️  https://www.photocampinfo.com DON’T FORGET! 🎙️ Rate, review & subscribe to the pod to stay inspired + support the show!

    How to Photograph Couples Like a Movie (ft @emmykienastphotography)

    I'm sitting down with my friend Emmy for such a fun and meaningful conversation about creativity, connection, and shooting couples in a way that actually feels like them!!! We talk about her journey to finding a cinematic style she truly loves, how film and movies shaped her eye, and the moment things finally clicked after years of experimenting and second guessing. We also get into why weddings feel so sacred to her, how her faith influences the way she photographs love, and how being a bride herself completely shifted the way she approaches wedding days now. This conversation is full of heart, encouragement, and so many little mindset shifts that honestly just make you want to go create!!! If you're a photographer who wants to shoot with more confidence, tell better stories, and create work that feels meaningful instead of trendy, this episode is for you!!! 💛 _______ 🎉MENTORSHIPS If you're craving direction in your photo business, want real, honest guidance, or just wanna hang with me in person—my 1:1 mentorships are open (in person or virtual)! https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/services LET'S CONNECT 🫶 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexblakephoto TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/Alexblakephoto Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexblakephotography STUFF I SWEAR BY 🫡 My Gear, Bible Stuff, + Life Faves: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alexblakeotto Pass Gallery – 1 Month Free: https://alexblakephotography.passgallery.com/referral AI Editing (30-Day Free Trial): https://aftershoot.com/friends/?ref=alexotto HoneyBook Discount (Get organized!): https://share.honeybook.com/alex89263 Merch, Presets, & More: https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/ PHOTO CAMP INFO 🌊⛺️  https://www.photocampinfo.com DON'T FORGET! 🎙️ Rate, review & subscribe to the pod to stay inspired + support the show!

    an honest convo about motherhood + business (ft. @abbeyjophotos)

    I'm sitting down with Abbey for a really honest conversation about motherhood, comparison, and running a creative business in a new season of life. Abbey was on the podcast before becoming a mom, and so much has shifted since then! We talk about how motherhood reshapes not just your schedule or workflow, but how you see yourself as a person and a creative. This conversation isn't about having it all figured out, but about navigating change, releasing expectations, and redefining success in a season that looks very different than before. If you're a photographer who's a mom, becoming one, or simply feeling tension between who you were and who you're becoming, this episode is for you. _______ 🎉MENTORSHIPS If you're craving direction in your photo business, want real, honest guidance, or just wanna hang with me in person—my 1:1 mentorships are open (in person or virtual)! https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/services LET'S CONNECT 🫶 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexblakephoto TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/Alexblakephoto Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexblakephotography STUFF I SWEAR BY 🫡 My Gear, Bible Stuff, + Life Faves: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alexblakeotto Pass Gallery – 1 Month Free: https://alexblakephotography.passgallery.com/referral AI Editing (30-Day Free Trial): https://aftershoot.com/friends/?ref=alexotto HoneyBook Discount (Get organized!): https://share.honeybook.com/alex89263 Merch, Presets, & More: https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/ PHOTO CAMP INFO 🌊⛺️  https://www.photocampinfo.com DON'T FORGET! 🎙️ Rate, review & subscribe to the pod to stay inspired + support the show!

    Making Senior Photography Profitable Ft @Sue.Shutterbug

    Today I'm chatting with Sue (@sue.shutterbug) to talk honestly about what it looks like to build a profitable and sustainable senior photography business. We cover everything from the importance of community and client relationships to creating a standout senior experience that actually supports your income. Sue shares how shifting to in-person sales changed her business, how she thinks about the full client journey, and what profitability really means beyond just revenue numbers. We also dive into mindset shifts that matter, including the 80/20 rule, intentional income dips, niche marketing, and how to communicate value without overextending yourself or burning out. You'll hear us reference Jen throughout this conversation as well - If you want to connect with her, you can find her on Instagram at @jenrenpro. If you love senior photography but feel stuck between staying busy and building something sustainable, this conversation will give you clarity, encouragement, and practical perspective :) _______ 🎉MENTORSHIPS If you're craving direction in your photo business, want real, honest guidance, or just wanna hang with me in person—my 1:1 mentorships are open (in person or virtual)! https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/services LET'S CONNECT 🫶 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexblakephoto TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/Alexblakephoto Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexblakephotography STUFF I SWEAR BY 🫡 My Gear, Bible Stuff, + Life Faves: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alexblakeotto Pass Gallery – 1 Month Free: https://alexblakephotography.passgallery.com/referral AI Editing (30-Day Free Trial): https://aftershoot.com/friends/?ref=alexotto HoneyBook Discount (Get organized!): https://share.honeybook.com/alex89263 Merch, Presets, & More: https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/ PHOTO CAMP INFO 🌊⛺️  https://www.photocampinfo.com DON'T FORGET! 🎙️ Rate, review & subscribe to the pod to stay inspired + support the show!

    PEED HER PANTS AT A WEDDING???? (listener submissions!)

    I asked photographers to send in their most awkward photoshoot moments… the ones no one posts, the ones that still make you cringe, and the ones that remind you we're all human. And I'm reading them exactly as they were sent to me. From saying the wrong thing, to calling a client the wrong name, to moments that were awkward, uncomfortable, or straight up chaotic — this episode is all storytelling and no shame. If you've ever walked away from a shoot replaying something in your head thinking "why did I say that," this one's for you. Follow @alexblakephoto and subscribe if you want more convos like this - and if you have an awkward story of your own, send it my way for a future episode 🤍 _______ 🎉MENTORSHIPS If you're craving direction in your photo business, want real, honest guidance, or just wanna hang with me in person—my 1:1 mentorships are open (in person or virtual)! https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/services LET'S CONNECT 🫶 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexblakephoto TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/Alexblakephoto Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexblakephotography STUFF I SWEAR BY 🫡 My Gear, Bible Stuff, + Life Faves: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alexblakeotto Pass Gallery – 1 Month Free: https://alexblakephotography.passgallery.com/referral AI Editing (30-Day Free Trial): https://aftershoot.com/friends/?ref=alexotto HoneyBook Discount (Get organized!): https://share.honeybook.com/alex89263 Merch, Presets, & More: https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/ PHOTO CAMP INFO 🌊⛺️  https://www.photocampinfo.com DON'T FORGET! 🎙️ Rate, review & subscribe to the pod to stay inspired + support the show!

    We're Leaving THESE in 2025!!!! ft maegan grendell photo

    It's the first episode of the year!!! YAY! I'm kicking things off with a casual, honest conversation with my friend Maegan (@maegangrendellphoto) about the things we're officially leaving in 2025. We're talking about habits, expectations, and mindsets we picked up over the years that just don't make sense to carry into a new year. As photographers and business owners, it's easy to hold onto things out of fear, pressure, or "this is how it's always been done" thinking, and we get real about what we're choosing to let go of instead. This episode feels like sitting on the couch talking it out, not a list of resolutions or a big motivational speech. Just a real conversation to start the year feeling lighter, more clear headed, and reminded that you don't have to bring everything with you into what's next. _______ 🎉MENTORSHIPS If you're craving direction in your photo business, want real, honest guidance, or just wanna hang with me in person—my 1:1 mentorships are open (in person or virtual)! https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/services LET'S CONNECT 🫶 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexblakephoto TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/Alexblakephoto Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexblakephotography STUFF I SWEAR BY 🫡 My Gear, Bible Stuff, + Life Faves: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alexblakeotto Pass Gallery – 1 Month Free: https://alexblakephotography.passgallery.com/referral AI Editing (30-Day Free Trial): https://aftershoot.com/friends/?ref=alexotto HoneyBook Discount (Get organized!): https://share.honeybook.com/alex89263 Merch, Presets, & More: https://www.alexblakeeducation.com/ PHOTO CAMP INFO 🌊⛺️  https://www.photocampinfo.com DON'T FORGET! 🎙️ Rate, review & subscribe to the pod to stay inspired + support the show!

    what i've learned going to photography retreats :)

    Photography retreats can feel intimidating at first. Like you need to be more experienced, more confident, or have everything figured out before you go. Spoiler alert: you don't. In this episode, I'm sharing what I've actually learned from going to photography retreats over the years. The awkward first day energy, how much you learn just by watching other photographers shoot, why Instagram confidence disappears the second you meet people in real life, and why styled shoots feel so creatively freeing. If you've ever thought about going to a retreat but felt nervous, unsure, or like you might not fit in, this one's for you. It's light, honest, and very real.
