The Business of Our Business

Over and over again, we hear from photographers who are looking to take that next step and elevate themselves and their companies from just breaking even to breaking through. While sometimes it is the quality of the work, more often than not, it is the knowledge of running a business that needs help. Marketing, Web Design, Networking, Taxation, Accounting, and so much more must be a part of every photo business. Join us to hear a new guest speaker each month, partake in Q&A sessions, and meet other photographers!.

Each month we will invite a member of the community into our classroom to discuss the trends and important information that we need to know as photographers. At these get togethers, there is no topic off limits as we make sure we are prepared to elevate our business to the next level. Snacks and beverages will be provided!
