Instagram Live Series: Growing a Personal Brand with BRAND PHOTOGRAPHY
It has always been important to me to to support small business, especially local and women owned business. I admire the assertiveness, action-mindedness, risk-taking and problem-solving abilities I always see in entrepreneurs. It took me too long to realize that I have always had an entrepreneurial spirit. As an entrepreneur myself, and photographer, I know the value of images and I’ve talked about it before. I brought together some business owners I admire to chat all about brand photography and our work together in a series of Instagram lives.
