62 - Kianna's Book It Review: Booked More Weddings Than Ever Before, Increased Profit, and Made 2x Her Investment

Are you tired of feeling stuck in the mini session cycle, wondering how other photographers seem to book those dream weddings and destination clients? If you're a wedding photographer questioning whether investing in education is really worth it when you're already struggling to get consistent bookings, this episode is for you. Join me as I chat with my former Book It student Kianna Martinez, who transformed her photography business from sporadic mini sessions to booking destination weddings and doubling her income in just three months - all while being a full-time psychology student and running a dog rescue. In this candid conversation, Kianna shares her journey from Marine Corps veteran to successful wedding photographer, including how she overcame her fears about investing in education during a time when bookings were low. She reveals how focusing on foundational elements like finding her "why" and refining her client experience led to booking higher-paying clients, destination weddings, and creating a sustainable business model she loves. One year after completing the Book It program, she continues to implement new strategies and exceed her business goals.
