@Zach Gray Is there somewhere that you talk about setting up lightroom catalogs and how to get your edits to save to your hard drive?

In 2012, I was on top of the photography world. I made 420k that year, was shooting, teaching and speaking all over the world, and you would THINK I didn't need help from anyone. But I had a HUGE problem. 80% of my income was tied to me traveling, and my then wife and I wanted to start having kids. I had NO idea how to shift my income from travel based to home based. So I consulted the smartest friend I had, and he said I needed to make a plan to quickly change my income stream so I could live at home and do more online and local work. I asked if he would coach me through the process and he agreed. I paid him $5,000 and he gave me a 10 point plan. I did everything he said, and in 2013, I was home all year, I took 5 months OFF of work, built a new home, had our son Jaxon, and grossed $550,000! I would say that $5,000 coaching investment was worth it. When someone else looks at what you are doing from the outside and that person has experience unlocking potential, it can quickly transform your life, your photography and your career. This has happened to me in my photography, business, and family life. And I have seen it happen in dozens of people I have coached and helped over the years. Last year, I coached 45 photographers. One of the women who hired me needed help in her boutique portrait business. Within ONE week, I helped her generate $30,000 in new revenue from ONE idea. It was AMAZING! You came here to solve a problem. I am determined to HELP you solve those problems. So, today I am STARTING to do that at a higher level, by opening up 5 FREE calls (to whoever gets them first), so we can get on a call or zoom, and go over the ONE biggest thing that is in your way. Maybe it is lighting. Maybe it is a technical skill. Maybe it is the push to help you believe you have what it takes to start a business doing photography. Maybe it is something in your personal life you need real help with or maybe it is something different than all of the above. Whatever it is, I can help.

I just shot a wedding on Saturday (and am shooting another one tomorrow for Wynona Judd's Step Son Cahl). Yesterday and today in the span of about 35 minutes each, I built them wedding albums for them to proof and then potentially purchase! I built these on www.whcc.com site with their album builder.

Comment or like this post so I know who here is interested in making money with your photos! I’ve coached 1,400 photographers in business, and if there is enough demand, I will start adding a business channel and here is what I can do: 1. Give you the 10,000 foot view of what you really need to do to make money. 2. Help give you some high quality introductory guidance. 3. Offer group and 1/1 coaching as a paid option. It would NOT be cheap, but it would be LIFE changing! And compared to any other business it would be crazy cheap to start. (Imaging investing $5,000 and turning that into a 50-100k or more a year profit business)? Photography is amazing in that you can turn a profit in just 4-6 months on average with a really good plan, systems and process! I know the process (and am currently relaunching my own photo business right now)! I’ll give you all insights into exactly what I’m doing to rebuild my 6-figure photo brand that I previously ran for 10 years!
