How Fagan Went from Juggling 3 Jobs to Becoming a Full-Time Wedding Photographer

Have you ever felt like you’re stuck in an endless hustle, dreaming of the day when your passion could become your full-time career? That was Fagan’s reality. She spent her days working three different jobs and cramming her wedding photography business into the spare hours she could find. The idea of leaving behind a “steady” paycheck seemed almost impossible, no matter how much she loved photography.

But everything changed when she took a closer look at her business and made strategic shifts that transformed her life.

The Turning Point

The pivotal moment came when Fagan and I mapped out what she could achieve with the extra time she’d gain if she no longer had to juggle two other jobs. By analyzing real data, she realized that going full-time was more than just a dream—it could be her reality.

Once she committed to the leap, we focused on three essential areas:

  1. Strategic Pricing
    One of the most impactful changes was creating a pricing system that truly reflected her value. Not only did it make her services more appealing, but it also encouraged clients to invest in higher-priced packages that suited their needs.

  2. Organizing Finances
    While the face-to-face side of photography was her favorite, Fagan knew she needed to have her accounting and financial management in place. We streamlined her financial systems so she could have complete peace of mind, knowing every dollar was accounted for.

  3. Growing Confidence
    As her backend systems fell into place, Fagan’s confidence skyrocketed. She no longer felt the pressure to take on every single client. Instead, she had the freedom to choose couples who aligned with her vision, making every project feel intentional and fulfilling.

The Joy of Running Her Own Business

Today, Fagan no longer worries about the endless grind or working with clients who don’t light her up. She gets to invest fully in her passion, delivering unforgettable experiences to couples who value her unique talent.

In Fagan’s Own Words:
"I went from working 3 jobs to going full-time as a photographer. While the face-to-face side of business is the best part, I learned what to do on the back end to make sure all of my accounting was in place and accounted for! I’ve become so much more confident in my abilities as a photographer, as a business owner, and as a person."

You Can Make the Leap, Too

Fagan’s story is proof that with the right strategy and mindset, your passion can become your full-time career. You don’t have to settle for the endless hustle. Instead, build the systems you need to feel confident, secure, and free to do the work you love.
