How to Stay Profitable, Creative, and Ahead in 2025 - new Podcast episode with Annemie Tonkin

What if running your photography business didn’t feel like a constant hustle?

In this week’s episode of The Pet Photographers’ Journal, I chat with Annemie Tonkin from This Can’t Be That Hard about how photographers can build businesses that actually work for them, not the other way around.

We talked about:

Why the photographers who thrive long-term treat their business like an art form
How to create predictable income with a membership model (even if you do IPS)
How to protect your creative energy while growing your income
And how to use AI as a creative partner, not a replacement

Annemie’s insights will change the way you think about sustainability, creativity, and success as we move into 2025.
