How to Find The Right Photography Mentor For You!
I am so excited about this podcast!
This podcast is old. Like, I found it in my drafts folder from late 2021 when I was recording podcasts to release in early 2022. We all know what happened there – I totally dropped the project! – but, two years later, we are back on schedule. And when I found this episode? I was so thrilled! Talking about mentorships is so near and dear to my heart because, while I’ve had the opportunity to mentor some freaking amazing photographers, I’ve also had the opportunity to be mentored by incredible photographers.
So! Grab that coffee and pull up your editing list! We have things to talk about!
