Have you ever thought about making money through your photography, either as a hobbyist or a professional? Then have a listen to my latest interview with Brenda Petrella with the Outdoor Photography Podcast on “How to Make Money as an Outdoor Photographer.”

Brenda and I covered a wide-range of topics in this quick 35-minute talk, including:

  • Different revenue options for turning your photography passion into a business or side hustle
  • How to research and approach new clients and/or media outlets
  • The most important question you can ask when working with potential clients
  • The AICA-S Sales Framework (yup, there’s an actual formula for sales, surprise, surprise!)
  • Potential revenue sources for landscape and nature photographers
  • Important questions to ask yourself before taking the leap
  • And many more nuggets of advice and helpful tips!

Many of you have heard my back story: I never intended to become a full-time freelance photographer, writer, publisher, speaker, instructor, and more). I graduated with honors from the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor (the #1 undergraduate Business School during my school years) with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree with a focus in Computer Information Systems. Straight out of college, I moved to Arizona to begin an almost 10-year project management career in software development at Intel Corporation.

I picked up photography as a hobby, as an escape from my job. After corporate life became overwhelmingly stressful and unfulfilling–and photography and the Great Outdoors became a insatiable passion–I left my job in 2007 to start a more meaningful life as a freelancer. I’ve run my own business–two actually!–for over 19 years now, 15 as a full-time freelancer. If I can do this, you can do this!

For a more visual presentation on the business of freelancing, in addition to Brenda’s podcast, you won’t want to miss the free one-hour webinar “Freelance U” I gave for the Outdoor Writers Association of America in 2020: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/owaa/561508690.

Nothing thrills me more than to help others achieve their goals and dreams with photography or other life pursuit. If you’d like in-depth, hands-on guidance with selling your work without selling your soul, sign up for a coaching session with me. Check out my coaching offerings at https://www.colleenminiuk.com/coaching.html.

Life is too short to do things you don’ t like to do. I’d love to help you create and sustain a life you love.

Here’s hoping my interview with Brenda sparks new ways to do just that!

Looking for a creative boost for your photography? Super excited for you to hear this brand new podcast interview with Brenda Petrella with the Outdoor Photography Podcast. Have a listen to “Visual Perception and Cultivating Creativity” at www.outdoorphotographyschool.com/episode19.

Here’s what Brenda had to say about our chat:

“Today, I sit down with Arizona-based landscape photographer, avid writer, and educator, Colleen Miniuk, to chat about the value of following your curiosity, letting go of expectations, playing, and being open to experimentation with your photography; Gestalt psychology of visual perception and how to use it to create more meaningful images; the five inventories to take in the field to discover compositions; how to cultivate a creative mindset with conceptual blending, pareidolia, and metaphorical associations; and a ton more!

This was an info-packed episode that will really get your creative wheels turning. Plus, Colleen’s energy and enthusiasm is contagious. I hope you enjoy!”

I also hope you enjoy and gain some new ideas for your work! Keep shooting!
