    ✨ About Krysta Miinch
    I launched my photography business in 2020 and make over $100,000 in revenue in my first 12 months. I photographed over 100 people and became the top rated boudoir studio in my city by year 2. My love for talking business is why I started this youtube channel to help photographers make money and grow their business. I hope to share all the tips, tricks and lessons I learned from building my photography business with you!

    Hi Krysta. Would you be able to go a little more in depth about working with a makeup artist, like matching schedules, what pay looks like, etc.?! Also thank you for your videos. They've really helped me figure out the direction I'd like to go and what steps I can take.

    I absolutely love your honesty about not working 40 hrs a week. I feel like our generations are starting to realize how unhealthy that can be.

    It’s crazy because I used to follow your old channel some years ago. And just a few moments ago, I searched on RUclips “six figure product photographer”. Then your video was the first one to pop up and I’m like, “I know this girl!” Just from the thumbnail. Couldn’t remember if I knew you from real life, but I remembered your old channel as soon as I started playing the video. Wow, I didn’t know you ended that channel. Did you delete it completely? Either way, that’s so cool that you’re in photography now. Also, congrats on getting married. I look forward to following your new photography journey and content. 💕🎉

      I've been shooting professionally since 1986 and I still do lots of free gigs. It's a great way to keep your skills up and try out new things. But make sure to price well once you've gotten your lighting and exposure perfected.

    I’m in my first year of my filmmaking business. Last night I cried because I felt so lost and got him and applied for jobs. I’ve been having more days like this. It’s really a challenge on me mentally. I’m trying to keep up.

      Keep pushing! Getting a full-time job is not a failure. Sometimes routine can help stabilize you and you'll be able to make clearer decisions regarding your business because there will be less financial pressure. Despite what most people say, life is long and you will always have the opportunity to follow your dreams even if it takes some time. ❤

    When you say you pushed really hard are you referring to marketing or pricing. I heard you updated your pricing a couple times but where do you get your clients?

    • @krystatakesphotos
      @krystatakesphotos  2 года назад

      Both! I get clients from Google and Facebook mostly with a few coming in from Tiktok every now and then.
