Itâs officialâThe One Behind the Lens podcast has launched, and weâre coming in HOT with three binge-worthy episodes thatâll speak to your creative soul and your business brain.
This podcast was created for photographers who want to build a business they love without burning out. Whether youâre full-time, part-time, or somewhere in-between, youâll find inspiration, practical tools, and the occasional lovingly blunt pep talk to keep you moving forward.
Letâs kick things off with something we all crave:Â more time. Iâm breaking down my simple, sustainable workflow strategy that helps me cull, edit, and deliver with way less stress.
đ And yesâthereâs a FREE PDF + video walkthrough so you can steal my system.
If youâve ever fumbled with off-camera flash or wondered how to make movement magic on camera, this episode is for you. Susan and I dive deep into dance photography, using reflectors, why personal shoots matter, and how to bring drama into your lighting without drama in your workflow.
Weâre getting real about what it takes to confidently price your work and stop playing small. Renee Bowen shares how she moved past self-doubt, redefined her pricing strategy, and created a business aligned with her life.

Each episode of The One Behind the Lens opens with a moment of truth in the Photo Confession Booth, a segment where either I or my guest spills a real, unfiltered behind-the-scenes story from our photography journeys.
From lighting disasters to hilarious posing mishaps and everything in between, these confessions are here to remind you that weâve all been there. No judgment, just the real stuff that never makes it to Instagram.
Tune in, laugh with us, and maybe even feel a little less alone on this wild creative ride.
