This week’s episode is the first in what will be many many interviews that dive deeper than usual. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have recording them.
My first guest is KT Merry, one of the most recognized and celebrated photographers in the industry. Over the past three or four years, I’ve heard more of my clients - mostly other photographers, but also pros from other fields - tell me they look up to KT as their role model more than any other wedding pro.
Why KT? Here’s what others told me they admired about her:
Her professionalism.
Her mindset.
Her personal brand.
Her creativity with the camera.
Her sophistication.
Her leadership.
Her values and conservationism.
Yes, KT’s in the top echelon of her field. And you’ll hear that it didn’t happen through luck. It took hard work. Grit. And a deliberate focus to turn then-current weaknesses into future strengths.
What you’ll find in this interview is how she took her raw talent and creativity, and then redefined what winning looked like.
You’ll find it’s the practice and preparation before the wedding that makes her so successful.
And you’ll find she’s built on her individual success to create a community filled with photographers who want to learn how to thrive in the luxury market. Who want to become, well, the next KT Merry.

A quick note if you’re listening to this before Oct. 13, 2022. KT is offering free workshops for wedding photographers who want to learn more from her about thriving as a business owner in the luxury space.
