In this episode of the Build and Bloom photography podcast, I (@jessicawhitaker) am joined by Emma Veness (@emmaveness.photography), an Empowerment Photographer Based in Melbourne, Australia.

She’s covering an incredible topic we all need to intergrade into our business: Intention VS expectation. She will teach how expectation can restrict us, and intention allows for a more flexible, aligned, creative photoshoot experience.

Starting Fast Will Only Set You Back in Your Photography Business 35:51

Before you invest in that high-ticket mastermind or coaching program promising $10K clients right out the gate—listen to this episode. We’re pulling back the curtain on the hype and talking about what actually builds a sustainable photography business. Because while marketing might land you one big win, it’s your skills, systems, and humility that determine whether you can keep going. In this episode, I break down: Why slow, intentional growth sets you up for long-term success The value of second shooting, assisting, and real-world experience How to spot educators who are great at marketing—but missing the depth in technical or posing skills The danger of comparison culture and rushing into high-price points too soon And the powerful shift that happens when you quiet your ego and commit to mastery If you’ve ever felt behind because you’re not charging luxury prices yet—or pressured to “level up” before you’re ready—this conversation will ground you. Success doesn’t come from skipping steps. It comes from doing the work that no one sees.

How To Plan a Successful Collaboration (Trade for Print) Photoshoot 50:23

25 дней назад50:23

50:23

Trade-for-print (TFP) shoots can be an excellent way to build your portfolio, collaborate with models, and refine your creative style. However, without a structured approach, TFP shoots can quickly become frustrating, unorganized, and a waste of time. Many photographers experience flaky models, last-minute cancellations, or misunderstandings about how many images will be delivered. The key to a successful TFP shoot is treating it just as professionally as a paid session—with clear expectations, organized communication, and structured boundaries. In this photography podcast episode, I will share the exact step-by-step system I use to run TFP shoots efficiently and professionally, so you can get high-quality results without dealing with unreliable people. This episode will cover: Why I never post model calls on Instagram (and where I find reliable models instead) How to set clear expectations upfront to avoid misunderstandings How over-communicating prevents cancellations and gets models to take the shoot seriously How to structure a TFP workflow from model booking to final image delivery How to avoid last-minute cancellations and no-shows The boundaries I set to prevent burnout and protect my time By following these steps, you will eliminate stress, work with dependable models, and create stunning images without frustration.
