Description

Today we're chatting with The Photographer’s Path Alumni, Jennifer Morris. It’s time for a raw honest conversation about life, business, and the process of leaving her full-time job of 10 years to become a photographer. Jenni is an amazing lifestyle photographer — she shoots families, newborns and portraits. She is all about authenticity and capturing life’s most precious moments. But Jenni's story didn’t come without its ups and downs. One in particular was in May of 2022, when Jenni was asked to set up a booth at an event to offer some mini sessions, she had an entire backdrop set up, she was ready, she was excited, she thought this was going to be a big moment for her and… no one signed up. "I was posting about it saying this is going to be so great. And no one signed up, I was so embarrassment.”That’s when Jenni realized, and these are the pivotal moments in a photographers career, the moments where you can choose to keep going or give up." This “failure” quickly became one of the most pivotal moments in Jenni’s career. “If I would have stopped at that moment I would not be here.” Fast forward to March of 2023, Jenni signed up for The Photographer’s Path and only FIVE MONTHS later she quit her job of 10 YEARS as a dental hygienist to become a FULL-TIME Photographer! Talk about transformation! If you’re feeling stuck at your current job, wondering if photography is something that’s right for you, I hope this episode gives you hope for what’s possible when you believe in yourself and go after your dreams.
