Becoming a Freelance Photographer (Featuring: Michael Williams)

Young Boss with Isabelle Guarino

From mechanic to highly-sought after commercial photographer - this week’s guest is full-time freelancer and business owner, Michael Williams.

Michael might just have the most epic ‘burn the ships’ story that we’ve heard on this show to date. If there’s one thing you’ll learn from this episode, take risks, seize opportunities and shoot your shot (pun totally, 100% intended) - oh, and most importantly, it’s okay to fail.

We talk to Michael about a wide variety of topics exclusive and nonexclusive to the photography industry. From five figure photoshoots that never see the light of day to the secret sauce of maintaining a referral based business in the uber-competitive creative world. As well as a pitfall of the creative industry that prevents scaling for certain skilled professionals, and how skateboarding and alt culture really shaped millennial video creators and photographers like Michael.

Tune in this week for an engaging discussion with one of the most diverse, multi-talented and down-to-earth creative professionals around.
