    You’re Not Behind. You’re Avoiding the Work That Books Clients.

    If you feel “behind” this year… you’re not. You probably just need to reset your strategy. This episode is basically a live business therapy session. We talk about: • Going back to your Q1 goals when you’ve completely ignored them • Why backend work (Dubsado, workflows, email lists) actually moves the needle • Why destination weddings are not the flex people think they are • How local photographers quietly make more money • Refreshing your website without shame • Building momentum in slow season • Why expanders and community matter more than marketing We also get honest about wanting to move states, building a network before you relocate, and how to market in a new city years before you get there. This one is about alignment over chaos. Momentum over panic. And choosing strategy over aesthetic. If you’re a wedding photographer or creative entrepreneur trying to grow without burning out, this episode will hit. 📌 Resources & Mentions from This Episode Dubsado’s Birthday Sale is live February 23–27, 2026 Get 40% off your first year + stack our code for an additional 30% off.

    How Photographers Can Shoot Their Shot, Raise Their Standards & Own Their Taste

    What if the next level of your photography business isn’t doing more… but trusting yourself more? In this episode of Perfectly Unposed, we’re talking directly to photographers who are ready to shoot their shot, raise their standards, and finally own their creative taste—without over-explaining, over-delivering, or second-guessing every move. We talk about curation as part of your value, why “more photos” doesn’t equal better work, and how trusting your eye is one of the most powerful branding decisions you can make. We also dive into networking without the awkwardness, following creative intuition—and a surprisingly emotional conversation inspired by Heated Rivalry that brought us back to one question we can’t stop thinking about: Why not you? Not because of plot or fandom—but because it reminded us what hope feels like. Watching people stay in it, keep showing up, and have their lives change after years of invisible work cracked something open. As creatives and business owners, it’s easy to feel numb or wonder if we missed our moment. This conversation is about not abandoning the dream, staying ready, and believing the work you’re doing matters—even before the evidence shows up. If you’ve been feeling the pull to do things differently—but need permission to trust that instinct—this episode is your sign.

    This Is the Energy We’re Bringing Into 2026

    New year… different energy. We’re talking goals, routines, nervous systems, and why we’re officially done forcing New Year’s resolutions. In this episode of Perfectly Unposed, we’re kicking off 2026 with an honest, cozy catch-up and a deep dive into how we’re approaching the new year differently as creative entrepreneurs. We talk about why planning in quarters feels way more realistic than setting huge year-long goals, how confidence and authority show up in your work, and why systems + routines matter just as much as creativity. From content creation and burnout to mindset shifts, boundaries, and redefining what “success” actually looks like — this episode is part life chat, part creative reset. If you’re a photographer or creative who wants structure without pressure and goals that actually stick, this one’s for you. https://www.instagram.com/p/DMGS45MJ-Jw/https://www.instagram.com/alysonhallphoto/https://www.instagram.com/michaellajelin/ For any business inquiries, email us here: perfectlyunposedpod@gmail.com 🌟 Keep up with our socials: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/perfectlyunposedpodYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@perfectlyunposedTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@perfectlyunposedpod MIRANDA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mirandapyeatt/Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mirandapyeattWebsite: https://mirandapyeatt.com/https://familiesbymirandapyeatt.com/Substack: https://bymirandalynn.substack.com/ KIMBERLY Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kimberlycorreaphotohttps://www.instagram.com/itskimberlymarleneTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itskimberlymarleneWebsite: https://kimberlycorrea.co/https://www.kimberly-correa.comSubstack: https://antistarvingartist.substack.com/ PODCAST CHAPTERS: 00:00 – Intro 02:30 – Rest, hibernation, and letting yourself slow down 05:00 – Hobbies, perfectionism & letting things be seasonal 07:00 – Animal Crossing, “analog” living & redefining screen time 16:10 – Why we’re planning the year in quarters (not resolutions) 19:20 – Choosing a word/theme for the year 22:30 – Small habits that actually change your life 26:00 – Creative routines, consistency & family photography goals 28:45 – Video content, being seen & how the industry is shifting 33:20 – Systems, structure & avoiding burnout as creatives 38:00 – Confidence, growth & what we’re excited for in 2026 42:00 – Nervous system regulation, anxiety & luteal phase realness 48:00 – Traditions, creativity at home & romanticizing your life 51:30 – Final thoughts & easing into the new year

    How to Shoot a Wedding That Tells a Story

    Ever feel like your wedding photos are technically good… but still missing something? Like you captured all the moments, but the gallery doesn’t feel the way the day felt? In this episode of Perfectly Unposed, we’re breaking down how we approach wedding days through the lens of storytelling, thinking like a film director instead of shooting from a shot list. We talk about why every wedding has characters, acts, subplots, and in-between moments that matter just as much as the “big shots.” From pre-wedding prep and getting ready rooms, to ceremonies, receptions, and the quiet moments in between, we share how awareness (not control) leads to more emotional, meaningful galleries. If you’re a wedding photographer who: • Feels stuck shooting weddings on autopilot • Wants your work to feel more intentional and cinematic • Is trying to develop a stronger artistic voice • Or wants clients to feel their photos, not just look at them This episode will completely change how you approach wedding days.
