HAVING HUMILITY TO LEARN. 🌱👩🏼‍💻
✨
One thing my friends and I were talking about what we love about our pastor, how he understands that He has never arrived, and he always needs to be learning more about God and His Word. No matter your position or your profession in life. 👉🏻 10-year professional photographer 📸
👉🏻 Bussiness expert 30 under 30 💼
👉🏻Just picked up a camera for the first time and are trying to make it ask a photographer 🕶
👉🏻Work full time and pick up jobs on the weekend. 👩🏼‍💻 ✨
Wherever you are in your career journey, BE TEACHABLE, BE WILLING TO LEARN AND GROW! ✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
YOU NEVER KNOW EVERYTHING, THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING NEW TO LEARN. 😘💕
✨
What makes you an expert in your field is not staying stagnate but taking time to read, listen to podcasts, follow knowledgeable people that will pour into you within your career, so that you will always have something NEW AND INNOVATIVE to offer to your clients!
✨
I am in the endeavor of not only wanting to educate about photography and being a business owner, but also constantly being open to learning new things to improve my craft! 💡NEXT POST: Tomorrow I will tell you one new thing I dove into head first!! 😘 XOXO

What is something new you have been learning? 📲

Seniors, I love you guys!
✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To all my 2020 senior graduates! I am booking now so don't miss out on getting in my calendar! When March, April, and May hits its a madhouse with everyone trying to cram in their senior pics! 😝
✨
So let's make it a breeze like this picture! ✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- XOXO😘

I LIED !! 👀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In my last post, I shared why product shots are so great! They break up your feed and can be a great detail to your portfolio. Tailwinds told me so right? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Wrong: 🛑 Well.. At least for my business. It is true that it breaks up your feed BUT you can also break up your feed by "LEAVING WHITE SPACE IN YOUR IMAGE." 📸👍🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For Example: This shot has more open space around it compared to the shot of Joey kissing 😘 my face that fills up the whole frame!
Mixing it up between leaving white space and filling up the frame can create that "FEED BREAK UP" I was talking about. 📖
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
WHY ITS BAD: ❌ By using white space with a subject the feed breakup happens without lowering engagement. Posting JUST a product shot LOWERED MY ENGAGEMENT. Can you tell my viewers where not as interested and my likes went from 200-300 down to 77.. 👎🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I get it! It's not about the "Likes" But it is about "SERVING YOUR AUDIENCE" and I want to serve you the best way I can!😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Cheers to more people within my feed! Gooood byeeee only product shots! 📸
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thankful for this tip from last nights audit with @kahleanicolee ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

PRODUCT PLACEMENT ON YOUR FEED:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• I just read an article on @tailwindapp about holding out a cute product in front of a wall and photographing it! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• How taking product shots with a lot of white space allows your feed to break! And look 👀 aesthetically pleasing overall!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• I thought 💭 I would give it. Try with an excellent product call @get.casely that I Shoot for! I thought it was cool that the wall matched the phone case 😜 (Love their phone case, actually using one of these cases right now!)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• I hope these tips help you design beautiful instal feeds! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Xoxo 😘 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

LET'S TALK ABOUT PLANNING A SHOOT: 📸
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Everything doesn’t always start out picture perfect!
It takes a team of creative minds!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When planning a shoot here are some things I think about: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣ LOCATION: where are we going to shoot these amazing looks?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2️⃣ TIME: you can have an amazing location but if it’s not shot at the right time can make or break the look. (When shooting indoors, the afternoon is usually the best to let the most light 💡 in) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3️⃣ PRODUCT: What product are you shooting? What story are you trying to tell? Think of that in your head before you start. To give you a good outline of the day. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4️⃣ MODELS: I usually have the brands pick what models they want by sending them whomever is on my list! ✔️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5️⃣ EDITING STYLE: If you have one style you are all set! But if you don’t what fits the mood of the client you are working with! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That’s all for now! I hope that helped you in planning your shoot day! •

A WHOLE LOT OF LOVE
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let’s talk 🌸😘 about Insta. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣ I have the image content I want to share with you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2️⃣ I have the heart ♡ to share and information to GIVE FREELY! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3️⃣ BUT STILL, I AM IN A FUNK! A little while ago I just STOP 🛑 POSTING all together.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Because frankly, I had all the tools 🧰 but nothing to say and no idea 💡 how to implement it! I was in an aka RUT! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Still getting out of it lol 🤪
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But all I can do is keep pushing forward and trusting in the Lord!
LAST NIGHT 😴 : Joey was such a teammate helping me through it and getting back to the core of what matters! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
POINT OF THIS POST: Everything might look peachy, but it’s hard at times to stay motivated! Being real is something I desire to do all the time but don’t have energy to at times, so this me putting in the work and SHOWING UP! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you are feeling overwhelmed by Instagram, I would love to connect share thoughts encouraging one another! 😍🌸🥰 dm or comment! Let’s talk!

“You can always make more money 💰; you can never make more time! - @kahleanicolee ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Investing in my business has been a struggle for me... I think some things are too much money!

The thing is information is such a great return compared to buying a Starbucks on your way home from work! Information, when you implement it, will, in the end, bring a return!

Obviously, you have to put in the WORK! But when you pay for it... you end up putting in the work because it wasn’t for free!

I desire that return and encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and invest! 😍🥰 In something that will grow your business!

Even if it’s investing your time to utilize free resources or a podcast to grow in your Knowlege so that you can serve OTHERS!

What have you invested in or are thinking of investing in? I want to know!! 👏👏🧠 #christinewozzphotography #brandphotographer #tampaphtographer #floridaphotographer #lifestylephotographer #investinginyourfuture #investinginyourbusiness #educationdegree #bossbabetribe #learningandgrowing

COMPARISON 😓
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This action has terrible consequences, and I get snared in it a lot! 😵
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Just when I am feeling content, happy, hopeful, and passionate. I allow comparison to intangle my heart within seconds! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I go from poring into this platform to allowing it to reck my mood and motivation! I see someone else achieving someone else doing what I would love to do, and allow it to get me down! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
LIKE SOMEHOW THERE SUCCESS MEAN MY FAILURE? How does that make any scenes? 🤯
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We can even ask the question WHAT DOES TRUE SUCCESS MEAN FOR YOU?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The minute I start to go down this rabbit hole I have to force myself to stop, zoom my eyes out of my phone and put my focus on CHRIST! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
#1️⃣ One thing that helps me with KILLING COMPARISON is to start listing the things I am THANKFUL and worshiping God for what He has given me because I am beyond blessed for what I deserve. My twisted focus being on others success and subconsciously becoming covetousness has inevitably lead me down he wrong path!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As I write this now I am struggling with it, and I have to actively put my eyes on the Lord. Thanking Him for..
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- My health
- My Husband - My family
- My community
-My career
- and so much more
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How am I to live in the moment growing in all those aspects if I am constantly down and comparing myself to others. That actually stunts Sucess! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The goal isn't the worldly success that fails, and you can never get enough of. Instead, my success is to honor Christ in all that I do and actively take a step towards glorifying Him daily! If He allows me to do that through photography and serving others in this platform, that is just RIDICULOUSLY AMAZING! But even if he doesn't my success is Him alone.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I encourage you today to stand with me and cling to Christ when you start to compare yourself to others! Knowing you are not alone and as woman we tend to do this automatically through these beautiful platforms! Lets support and be excited about others. 🥰

What program I use for all of my CLIENT MANAGEMENT! It is amazing 🌸 📱🖥 and has a summer Deal! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣ Its called DUBSADO! - @dubsado I never had a client management before! I did everything off of pdf’s I made. I was deciding between honeybooks ( a lot of photographers use) and dubsado! My fantastic friend and website designer @macey_miller told me about! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2️⃣ I use it to
- send contracts - send emails 📧 - send my packages 📦 - get paid - book my calendar 📅 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3️⃣ one big thing that I love is it saves all my client file information in their own portal! And it collects all my email information! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4️⃣ They have great email, call, and chat support! They Also will TRANSFER-all your old CRM info fore FREE from the past two years to your account! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5️⃣ They create 10 free forms for you if you want! Within your design. ( I used that when I was learning) They also have free info videos and classes on how to use it! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They are having a SALE - these next few days that is why I am writing to you about it! You have about $50 💵 or $60 dollars! SO GOOD 😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
6️⃣ DOUBLE TROUBLE: I also have an affiliate code that saves you money 💰! “Christinewozz” type in my name! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Everyone gets a code when you own an account! I used my friends to save money and feel in love!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I hope telling you this info jump-starts your business! How could I not share this summer plan, when I know it jump-started mine! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
