From Passion to Paid: Why I Wrote A Beginner’s Guide to Commercial Photography

If you’re a photographer trying to break into commercial work, you already know the hustle isn’t just about good lighting or great gear, it’s about understanding the business.

When I started out, I made every mistake imaginable. I undercharged, overworked, and hoped talent alone would open doors. It didn’t.

So I wrote A Beginner’s Guide to Commercial Photography for photographers like you: creatives ready to turn their skill into a sustainable, profitable business.

Inside, I share everything I wish someone had told me:

• How to price your work without second-guessing

• What brands actually look for when hiring

• The business systems that scale your career

• And the mindset shifts that turn passion into profit

Whether you're pivoting from portraits or starting from scratch, this book is your blueprint to book commercial work with confidence.

You’ve got the talent. Now get the strategy.
