Have feedback? Text us! In this episode, I sit down with Jill Smith, a seasoned family photographer and business mentor, to talk about the psychology of pricing, how to shift your mindset, and the strategies that make mini sessions profitable. Jill shares her personal journey from charging $50 per session to scaling a thriving, profitable photography business. We dive into why so many photographers struggle with pricing due to people-pleasing tendencies, fear of judgment, and unconscious money programming. Plus, we talk about why your mini sessions might be draining your time and energy—and how to fix that.Want to stop running your business like a hobby and finally price for profit?2:16 Fear and Mental Blocks Around Pricing5:51 Jill's Pricing Evolution Journey12:21 Aligning Pricing with Business Goals22:41 Profitable Mini Sessions Strategy31:17 Building a Strong Brand Identity42:25 ADHD and Creative Entrepreneurship47:18 Key Takeaways and Final Thoughts👇🏼Watch my free 30 minute pricing video HEREConnect with Jill:For Photographers: https://www.thebusinessfocusedphotographer.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jillcsmithphotography/Podcast: https://www.thebusinessfocusedphotographer.com/podcast Want to work with Renee?
