PHOTOBIZX PODCAST INTERVIEW
PHOTOBIZX PODCAST
I got interviewed by Andrew Hellmich from the PhotoBizX podcast and didn’t hold back on anything. I dropped a bunch of wisdom about my business and life as a photographer. You might not follow the PhotoBizX podcast, so that’s why I want to bring it to your attention. I’m pretty happy with the result and stoked to move forward on recording my 40 lesson tutorial video coming out in about 40 days!
