Photographers are no stranger to the idea/topic/belief that…

“The photography industry is too saturated.”

“There are too many photographers out there nowadays, how can anyone build a business?”

“Ugh, anyone can call themselves a photographer these days.”

My brain when I hear these sentences or see them on the internet… 🤯🤯🤯 (exploding from frustration, if you didn’t catch what these meant)

This idea and frustration that people have about new photographers, has always made me so frustrated and gets me seriously riled up even to this day, 11 years into the industry.

I break down my thoughts in this episode while giving a little encouragement to the new photographer out there!

This topic has been on my mind a lot lately as I have been thinking a lot about MINDSET recently. I wrote down one partial sentence...

"Taking ownership of where you are today as a mom, CEO, entrepreneur, as a person..."

And just hit record and started talking. The rest just flowed out. Honestly... this is my favorite way to record a podcast.

In this episode I give insight to my personal thoughts on taking ownership of where we are in our lives, shifting the blame away from other people or ideas, realizing if we want change we have to make it happen, and even taking ownership and being proud of our successes and wins in life.. no matter how big or small.

In true Unplanned Devon Fashion... I also end up announcing my upcoming 2024 Mindset Mastermind I am in the process of creating. I am SO EXCITED about this project. Words cannot describe what I feel inside as I'm piecing this all together.

If you are interested in more info, want on my email list to learn more as soon as possible, or want to join in this Mastermind right away... be sure to contact me!
