Angie Garbot started her career with the same mentality that many of us start with—go to school, get a job and work 40+ hours a week. After burning out from her 80-90 hour a week IT consulting business, Angie met with a life coach and decided to turn her passion for photography into a full time business. She started out taking classes at the Chicago Photography Center to gain more confidence in her technical skills (this is where I eventually met her) and second shooting for another photographer. She’s been a full time photographer for seven years now.
A few topics from today’s show:
- How to fill in the gaps when you’re not quite confident technically
- Second shooting
- Networking
- Finding a mentor
- Referral marketing
- Defining your style and process
- How much to spend on equipment
