In today's more casual girls-chatting-business-over-coffee-style episode, I'm sharing about my upcoming social media strategy, some challenges I've set for myself, and what I've learned by running some paid ads. I'm also touching a little bit on my creative direction, what I'm saying yes and no to in terms of shoots, and what I am trying to strengthen in my own business. In sharing some of my honest thoughts and where I'm at on my journey, I just want you to know that we are all always learning, growing together, and improving on our craft and business.

If any of these things are areas that you're also working on, shoot me a message on Instagram and let me know if you have any sweet words of encouragement. Or, even better, if I could give you some encouragement, I am more than happy to be your accountability buddy!

In today's episode, we're talking about all things wedding day wellness. I'm walking you through my exact wedding day rituals that help me feel prepped and polished so I can best serve my couples. I'm diving into all the details of what I do the night before the wedding day, how I like to start the day, what I pack, what helps me maintain a good presence and a lot of energy throughout the day, and what I do the day after the wedding to unwind and relax.

Whether you're a wedding photographer or just love a good behind-the-scenes wellness type of chat for big work days, this episode is for you. And I'd love to hear what your go-to rituals are, so shoot me a DM on Instagram and let me know!

In today's episode, we're talking about how to have the absolute best photo session. I'm sharing how to set yourself up for success beforehand and how to guide the session in the moment to get the most beautiful images (including specific poses). And while I'm specifically talking about couples sessions, the tips are still super applicable to family shoots and lifestyle headshots.

I really hope these tips help you with your next shoot. I'd love it if you could take a screenshot of this episode, post it to your Instagram stories, and tag me @rachelcphotos_!
