My husband, Luke, and I started our photography business back in 2016. We were fresh out of college, in a ton of debt from going to a private christian university, and photography was the perfect side hustle for us in that time. Our first engagement session was for some friends of ours and they paid us by taking us out for frozen yogurt at the end of the session. It’s wild to think of just how much our business would grow over the years. Our business grew very organically. Through word of mouth and social media, people began to know us and over the span of a few years, we had build a brand that people would come to know like and trust.
