Decades ago, I remember opening Olive Magazine in Japan and seeing my own multi-page spread. Tonight, I got to experience that feeling from the other side. I opened Skool Magazine and found my son, Cash, with a beautiful feature of his own. I know what it feels like to see your work take up those pages. But I have to tell you—seeing your child’s work on them may feel even better. ❤️ Cash, I am so incredibly proud of what you're building with Agoura Card Care and, even more, of how hard you work for it. From my magazine pages in Japan… to yours today. Like mother, like son. ❤️ And I have to brag on Cash just a little more. ❤️ What makes me especially proud isn't just seeing him featured in Skool Magazine—it's watching how committed he is to what he's building with Agoura Card Care. He recently did a 2½-hour TikTok Live that reached 15,000 views. He's committed to his Skool community, committed to card restoration, and he's even doing restoration LIVE at a local shop. People actually lined up for him, and he made $300 in one night! 🔥 He's putting in the hours, learning, showing up, and building something of his own. And what you don't see in these magazine pages is everything that went into that bus. Cash helped choose the details, sourced and ordered specialized parts, the compressor and tools, and even welded the roof rack onto that 40-foot Skool Bus himself. 🔥🚌 I watched the work behind the scenes, so seeing the finished bus—and seeing Cash featured in the magazine—is pretty incredible for this mama. ❤️ There is some serious energy happening around here heading into October and November, and I am HERE FOR IT. 😂❤️🔥 Keep going, Cash. Proud mama is watching. ❤️ Proud mama moment. 📸📖🔥 Read Skool Magazine here! @Cash Vancarson Starts his spread on page 22 https://heyzine.com/flip-book/ddec0dbcc7.html @Zak King

Okay, it’s midnight and apparently I’m not going to bed yet… 😂❤️ I’m officially on TikTok! 📱📸 Come find me at photography.by.cristal on TikTok!!! And I want to find YOU too. If you’re on TikTok, drop your TikTok name in the comments so I can come follow you. I’ll be sharing photography, remote headshots, personal branding, and probably a little bit of my crazy life along the way. 😂 Who’s on TikTok? 👇❤️

Your livestreams are full of content Check out this spotlight; I turned it into classroom assets and will optimize it to drive traffic for @Cristal Vancarson and her community. Stop burning out on the content treadmill. Livestreaming puts you in multiple places at once, and the evergreen content is incredible. @Americo Da Costa Thank you SO much! ❤️ This is exactly the kind of information I’ve been trying to figure out! I have my PC with a camera and my iPhone camera, and I REALLY want to learn how to record my LIVE sessions and turn them into content like this. This is fantastic! 🙌🔥 Thank you, guys, for showing me what’s possible. And his reaction to my Remote Headshots made me SO excited—he said “WOW!” 😂📸❤️ I LOVE a WOW! That’s exactly the reaction I want when people finally SEE how Remote Headshots actually work! See Spotlight👇 https://www.skool.com/skoolgames/your-livestreams-are-full-of-content?p=257fa3d8

@Cash Vancarson 📸 Today’s Client Results spotlight is extra special because my client is my son, Cash! ❤️📸 Cash got his very first LIVE Remote Professional Headshot today! We were in the same room 😂 This is officially the closest I have EVER been to someone I photographed remotely! Usually my clients are across the country or even across the world. 🌎 As with every Remote Headshot Session, I directed the lighting, angles, posing, and expression, then captured the images remotely. Cash is building his own Skool community, Agoura Card Care, where he shares his knowledge of TCG and sports card care, restoration, cleaning, pre-grading, and protecting your collection. 🃏🔥 And now he has a fresh professional profile image to represent what he’s building! I’ve photographed people thousands of miles away…and apparently I can photograph them across the hall too! 😂❤️📸 So proud of you, Cash, and everything you’re creating with Agoura Card Care! ❤️🔥

I recently started a free Skool community called Agoura Card Care and I wanted to share it with anyone here who is into collecting, grading, card condition, preservation, or restoration. The group is built around helping collectors understand their cards better while also giving everyone a place to share collections, favorite cards, wins, questions, and before and after projects. Inside the community you can get: 🃏 Free card inspections and condition feedback 🎓 A free 11 lesson pre grading class 🛡️ Protect Your Collection, an 8 lesson course covering sleeves, binders, storage, humidity, documentation, shipping, and more 🔥 Real before and after restoration examples 💎 Collector discussions and favorite card posts 🏆 Level based free course unlocks as you participate 📚 More classes currently being built including The Card Condition Workshop, Your Grading Game Plan, Advanced Card Inspection, and more I also do card restoration professionally through Agoura Card Care, so I share real examples from cards I work on while keeping the actual professional process private. The community is completely free to join, with optional Premium education for people who want to go deeper. Come check it out and introduce yourself! 👋🔥 https://skoo.ly/AgouraCards Restore • Protect • Preserve
