Let's Talk Passion Projects on The Professional Photographer Podcast

Sharing our work is one thing—but lately, we've been putting ourselves out there more than ever before. It’s new, a little scary, and definitely vulnerable... but also exciting.

Over the past few years, we’ve gone from full-time wedding photographers to full-time conceptual artists. That shift didn’t come easy, and honestly, starting over in your 30s is no small feat. But we did it. And now, sharing what we've learned along the way feels more important than ever.

We recently got the chance to talk about that journey on The Professional Photographer Podcast—how we transitioned careers, what it’s been like creatively and emotionally, and why we started our 100 Set Project. We also share how that project changed us, and offer tips if you’re thinking about starting a personal project of your own - because personal projects really do attract dream clients.

If you're curious about our story, the behind-the-scenes of our sets, or just need a little creative motivation, give it a listen below. We really hope it resonates.
