073: Balancing Business with Adoption

This week we’re welcoming our first guest of 2026, the wonderful Adam Lowndes.  Most of you will know Adam from his prolific BTS content that he posts on TikTok that and amassed him an impressive following. Adam’s friendly and open-book approach has also helped him build a wonderful online community amongst photographers, which made him the perfect choice for someone we’d love to have a conversation with on this pod. However, this chat isn’t about TikTok, social media or his Insta 360; this one is much deeper than that as Adam shares a personal journey that led him to adopting his daughter. We can’t thank Adam enough for his willingness to share this with us and being so honest and open about a subject that isn’t discussed enough.  We talk about his entire journey from beginning to end and how it’s shaped the way he runs his business today.  This episode breaks down a lot of walls when it comes to balancing parenthood and self employment, with loads of lessons in there for everyone.   Thanks again to Adam for being the kindest, most incredible guest and be sure to reach out and thank him if this episode resonates with you.  Adam’s links:Website: https://www.adamlowndes.co.uk/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adamlowndesphotography/Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@adamlowndesphotographyAdam’s Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/socialmediaweddingphotographyWCC LINKS:Follow us on Instagram at: www.instagram.com/weddingcapture.coWatch along on Youtube at: https://www.youtube.com/@WeddingCaptureCoPodcastKeywords: Adam Lowndes, Tiktok, Adoption, IVF, outsourcing, wedding photography, wedding education, social media.
