Evening Presentation:

MAYBE BABY: THE BUSINESS OF MATERNITY & NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY FOR EMERGING "MAYBE BABY" SPECIALISTS

WITH: TRACIE MAGLOSKY-POLLARD

Do maternity or newborn inquiries pop up occasionally—and leave you wondering how to approach them with confidence? Maybe these sessions aren’t your main focus (yet), but you want to feel prepared when they come your way. This evening session with Tracie is designed for photographers who want a clear, supportive framework for attracting, serving, and retaining maternity and newborn clients—even if these sessions aren’t a regular part of your business.  

We’ll talk through how to respond to inquiries, set expectations, create a thoughtful client experience, and build trust in a way that naturally leads to repeat and referral business (and yes—these concepts can be applied to any type of session or client). The class will wrap up with an open, "Ask Me Anything" discussion—an honest, no-gatekeeping space to ask real questions about pricing, communication, confidence, and what to do when maternity or newborn inquiries land in your inbox.

This is a precursor to tomorrow's Merit Class and a great opportunity to hear from one of the industry leaders. 

Register early. Space is limited. Attendees must register and pay in advance. No refunds or onsite registration.
