Episode Description: Jessica B. Harris may have been born and raised in New York City, but she has Tennessee roots through her father and has spent much of her life split between homes in the Northeast and the South – specifically New Orleans. For more than fifty years, she has been a college professor, a writer, and a lecturer, and her many books have earned her a reputation as an authority on food of the African Diaspora, as well as a lifetime achievement award from the James Beard Foundation. A few years back, Netflix adapted her book, High on the Hog: A Culinary Journey from Africa to America , into a 4 part docuseries. And I’m very proud to say that she’s a longtime contributor to Southern Living with a regular column called The Welcome Table. This episode was recorded in the Southern Living Birmingham studios, and Sid and Jessica talked about her mother’s signature mac and cheese, the cast-iron skillet she’d be sure to save if ever her house were on fire, and her dear friend, the late New Orleans chef Leah Chase.

What if you could book dream clients without having to post on Instagram every day? In this episode, I’m breaking down how blogging can help you book more photography clients consistently—and the best part? Once a blog post is done, it’s DONE. This is a long-term marketing strategy that works for you while you sleep. Instagram is great for visibility, but your blog is where the real magic happens. It’s where clients find you through Google, get to know your work, and book you directly— without the extra hoops . Plus, your website is the strongest reflection of your brand (and if you’re struggling with that, check out LightsCameraBrand.com ). Here’s what I cover: What SEO actually is and how it helps clients find you Why blogging individual sessions beats having one gallery page Real examples of how my posts from 6 years ago still bring in inquiries today The tools I use to make blogging easy How to make blog posts SEO-friendly without being techy or spending hours on them If you’re ready to stop stressing about social media and start thinking long-term, this episode is for you.

Before you invest in that high-ticket mastermind or coaching program promising $10K clients right out the gate—listen to this episode. We’re pulling back the curtain on the hype and talking about what actually builds a sustainable photography business. Because while marketing might land you one big win, it’s your skills, systems, and humility that determine whether you can keep going. In this episode, I break down: Why slow, intentional growth sets you up for long-term success The value of second shooting, assisting, and real-world experience How to spot educators who are great at marketing—but missing the depth in technical or posing skills The danger of comparison culture and rushing into high-price points too soon And the powerful shift that happens when you quiet your ego and commit to mastery If you’ve ever felt behind because you’re not charging luxury prices yet—or pressured to “level up” before you’re ready—this conversation will ground you. Success doesn’t come from skipping steps. It comes from doing the work that no one sees.

Trade-for-print (TFP) shoots can be an excellent way to build your portfolio, collaborate with models, and refine your creative style. However, without a structured approach, TFP shoots can quickly become frustrating, unorganized, and a waste of time. Many photographers experience flaky models, last-minute cancellations, or misunderstandings about how many images will be delivered. The key to a successful TFP shoot is treating it just as professionally as a paid session—with clear expectations, organized communication, and structured boundaries. In this photography podcast episode, I will share the exact step-by-step system I use to run TFP shoots efficiently and professionally, so you can get high-quality results without dealing with unreliable people. This episode will cover: Why I never post model calls on Instagram (and where I find reliable models instead) How to set clear expectations upfront to avoid misunderstandings How over-communicating prevents cancellations and gets models to take the shoot seriously How to structure a TFP workflow from model booking to final image delivery How to avoid last-minute cancellations and no-shows The boundaries I set to prevent burnout and protect my time By following these steps, you will eliminate stress, work with dependable models, and create stunning images without frustration.

What if photography could be more than just snapping photos? What if it could be a space for real connection and healing in a world that feels so disconnected? In this episode, I’m chatting with Christina Mellor (@christinascaptures), a photographer who’s completely reimagined her business to do just that. She’s sharing how she creates sessions that aren’t just about pretty pictures—they’re about helping people feel truly seen. We’re diving into the inner work it takes to hold space for others, the power of being witnessed, and how her approach transforms sessions into moments of self-acceptance and healing. If you’re looking for deeper connection through your work, this one’s for you. Christina is a self-love and embodiment photographer based in Salt Lake City, Utah. Her work celebrates inner growth and the transformative power of being deeply seen and celebrated for who you are. With a mission to bring healing to the world, Christina creates sacred spaces where individuals can release what no longer serves them and step into their most authentic, embodied selves.
