Why Some Family Photographers Stay Fully Booked (and Others Don’t): 8 Business Foundations You’re Probably Ignoring

The Systems and Workflow Magic Podcast

Ever look at another family photographer who’s booked out months in advance and think, “What are they doing that I’m not?” Spoiler: it’s not talent, it’s not the “oversaturated market,” and it is definitely not that you’re not good enough.

This episode (originally recorded as a YouTube video and repurposed into the podcast) breaks down the eight core foundations—or “cogs”—that keep your family photography business consistently booked instead of stuck in that exhausting feast-or-famine cycle.

Whether you’re a few years into business or you’re finally ready to take it seriously as a real, sustainable business, this one’s meant to lovingly call you out and show you exactly where to focus next.
