E18: Narrative Enables My Overshooting: Inside Narrative with Founder James Broadbent (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the goal of your photography business wasn't to work harder but to get your life back? In this episode, I'm joined by James, the creator of Narrative , to talk about something photographers have VERY complicated feelings about: AI. We get into why photographers feel guilty when a tool makes their workflow easier, why we've somehow turned editing until 3AM into a badge of honor, and why being an overshooter doesn't mean you need to punish yourself with thousands of images afterward. James
E17: Put Down the Post-It Note (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Your Brain Is Not a CRM At some point, we started confusing doing everything manually with providing a better client experience. In this episode, I'm calling bullshit on the idea that automation makes your business less personal. We’re talking about why your clients don't need access to you 24/7, how “scrappy” eventually becomes sloppy, the hidden cost of keeping your entire business inside your brain, and why being indispensable isn't the same thing as being successful.

In this episode, I'm sharing what work-life balance actually loo
E15: Are Wedding Photographers ruining Weddings? With Milly Baine of The Rose Reflective (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Yeah... we said it. This week, Milly Baine with The Rose Reflective is back on Emotionally Booked Out, and we're talking about the elephant in the room: are wedding photographers ruining weddings? From making couples redo moments over and over again to chasing content instead of connection, we're unpacking how ego, trends, and social media have changed the client experience... and not always for the better. We're not speaking from some high horse either. We've both made these mistakes. We've bot
E14: Am I in a pyramid scheme? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
No seriously, sometimes being in the wedding industry feels like a pyramid scheme. What if the scoreboard you've been chasing was never yours to begin with? What if I told you that what you deem successful is probably way different than what you've been told? This week's episode is a quick one, but it packs a punch. I'm talking about the myths we've accepted in the photography and wedding industry, that destination weddings, luxury venues, follower counts, and constant busyness somehow equal suc
