160: How Kimberly Re-defined Mini Sessions and Made $8000 From 1 Day Of Shooting!

See this content in the original post

Want to know how Kimberly was able to make $8000 from just 1 day of shooting? 💰💰💰 Oh, and plot twist–she did it with mini-sessions. 🤯

If you had told Kimberly, a branding photographer, a few years ago that she could make that kind of money from mini-sessions… She wouldn’t have believed you.

Like many photographers, she’d written off mini-sessions as “they are just so much work for so little profit!”. She thought there was no way she could charge high-ticket prices with this type of session. And in her mind, they carried connotations of “cheap”, “fast”, and “low-quality”.

But after a colleague shared a new way of doing mini-sessions with her that was profitable, low-stress, and fun… She decided to launch a mini-session offer with absolutely no idea what to expect.

And guess what? She booked up all 8 slots within 48 hours. 🤯She quickly discovered that this type of session was her jam. 🤩 So if you’re a photographer who’s feeling burnt out and you want to earn more and shoot less…

…You’ll definitely want to listen to Kimberly’s story.

On this week’s podcast episode, I picked Kimberly’s brain about how she leveraged mini sessions to build a profitable, aligned photography business. She completely redefines mini-sessions and it’s going to blow your mind and show you what’s possible for you!

✨ Why showing your audience your “messiness” can actually magnetize them 

✨ How to surrender to good things in your life, even when they make you super uncomfortable
