New Podcast Episode: A real look at volume, value, and energy

🔥

I’ve just released a new episode of The Pet Photographers’ Journal with Louise Sedgman, and it’s one of those conversations that stays with you.

We talk a lot in this community about sustainability, boundaries, and building a business that actually supports your life. This episode puts all of that into a very real context.

Louise runs two very different sides of her business. High-volume seasonal work that serves thousands of families. And slow, fine-art equine portraiture that’s deeply intentional.

What really stood out for me was how honest she is about the energy required for both.

Some takeaways I think you’ll get a lot from:

Why high-volume work only works when systems and client education are locked in
How Louise delivers the same energy to every client, even in fast-paced sessions
The importance of boundaries after experiencing burnout
How client education upfront changes everything, especially for seasonal sessions
Why a business can hold both volume and value without losing integrity

If you’re running mini sessions, Santa sessions, or balancing different offers in your business, this episode will give you perspective you don’t hear often.

I’d love to know… Which part of your business currently takes the most energy from you?
