Rest, Reset & Create: The Photographer’s Slow Season

As the year winds down and the busy season fades, it’s easy to feel torn between wanting to rest and fearing you’ll lose momentum. In this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to slow down without losing your creative spark.


We share how we’re embracing the slower season, giving ourselves permission to pause and finding little ways to stay inspired, without the pressure to constantly produce. From personal projects to gentle resets that feel good for your business, this one’s your reminder that rest is part of growth.


Inside this episode:

- Why slowing down doesn’t mean you’re going to falling behind

- How to reignite creativity when you’re feeling drained

- Easy ways to stay on top of marketing while you're having down time

- A gentle mindset shift for photographers heading into a new year


Grab a blanket, your favourite brew and join us for the final episode of Season 3. It’s time to rest, reset and refocus before the year ahead.

You're Not Having My RAW Files!

Welcome back to Mother, Baby & Us - A Photography Podcast! 🎙️ This week, we’re diving into some juicy photography drama in "You're Not Having My RAW Files!" 


We've all seen those heated threads and Facebook group meltdowns where photographers clash over some pretty touchy issues. In this episode, we're reacting to some of the most talked-about debates in the photography community, from clients demanding RAW files to awkward pricing disputes—and trust us, we’ve got opinions.


We'll be sharing how we’d handle these tricky situations while keeping things fun and real (because who doesn't love a good drama with a side of humor?). Whether you're curious about what goes on behind the scenes in photography groups or just want to hear how to navigate those sticky client conversations, this episode has something for you.


Hit that play button, grab a snack, and let’s get into it! Let us know in the comments if you've experienced any of these dramas yourself—and how you handled them!
