Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in photography but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Haley Michaelson, owner of With Grace Photography, located in Fargo, ND, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I have a photography business in Fargo, North Dakota. I have a broad clientele! Everything from maternity, newborn, engagement, wedding, milestone, and family photos!
Tell us about yourself
I began my photography journey three years ago. I first picked up a camera to document my husband's hunting adventures and eventually started documenting families, and my passion was born! I genuinely love being behind the camera. Documenting people's stories is one of my true passions and is something I hope to do for many years to come.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
My biggest accomplishment as a business owner has been connecting with hundreds of people and having them trust me to document their lives.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
For me, one of the hardest things about being a business owner is delivering photo galleries. I always get so nervous waiting for a response from the client. I always hope they love the photos and worry about it until I receive a response!
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Make sure you're ready to learn the ins and outs of running a business.
- Be passionate about your business.
- Take risks and think outside the box!
