September 21st, 2019 - Entrepreneur’s Journal

Right now as an entrepreneur, I feel overwhelmed. Mostly because I feel like being in school takes so much time and effort, so I can't put all the time and energy I want into my business. Something else I've been struggling with is finding the right people who appreciate quality pictures. While I've been in school studying photography, I feel like my worth as a photographer has gone up but some people don't see that... they only want a deal and that HURTS. Something I've learned and I'm still trying to learn is to appreciate those who do value and appreciate my pictures and my prices. I'm learning there will be some people who will never understand. It is scary to raise my prices, but it is also important. With every photo shoot, I am learning something new and improving my skills. It is hard to lose customers over this, but also vital to not downplay the quality of pictures I am giving to my clients. I am looking forward to learning how to better set apart time as an entrepreneur during the day, and sell myself and reach those people who will appreciate the quality of pictures I am giving them. Also, I'm excited to learn how to better my business and strengthen my business knowledge.
