Live from WPPI: What’s Working Right Now (Funnels, Conversions & Navigating Slow Seasons with Elena S. Blair)
2026/04/07
This episode was recorded live at WPPI 🎤 and honestly… it’s one of those conversations I wish every photographer could sit in on. I’m joined by Elena S Blair, and we go deep into what’s actually working right now in your business from marketing strategies to mindset shifts to the reality of evolving seasons. Because yes… inquiries might feel slower for some of you.But this conversation is about so much more than that. It’s about understanding how your entire marketing ecosystem works together. And more importantly… how it needs to evolve. We talk about the truth that’s been true for decades:When things feel slow, it doesn’t mean your business is broken.It means things are shifting. And the photographers who are willing to adjust? They’re the ones who keep growing. In this episode, we talk about: Why “low inquiries” is often a signal to refine, not panicThe difference between leads, conversions, and actual bookingsWhat’s working right now in marketing (and what’s not hitting like it used to)How funnels are playing a bigger role in converting clientsWhere ManyChat fits into your strategy (and how to use it intentionally)Looking at your full customer journey from first touchpoint to booked clientWhy relying on old strategies can quietly stall your growthThe importance of adapting your messaging and offers to today’s buyerThe real conversation around injuries, capacity, and navigating seasons when life impacts business This episode is part strategy, part perspective shift, and part honest conversation about what it looks like to run a business long-term. Because success isn’t about chasing one tactic…It’s about understanding how everything works together and being willing to evolve as it changes. If things feel off, slower, or different in your business right now, this will help you zoom out and move forward with clarity.

What I Learned at WPPI
2026/03/24
In this episode, I’m sharing a recap of my time at WPPI and some of the biggest takeaways I’m bringing home with me.From the conversations I had to the sessions I attended, WPPI was such a good reminder that growth in business does not always come from doing more. Sometimes it comes from getting in the room.I’m talking about what stood out to me at the conference, what I noticed in the photography industry, and the lessons that I think matter most for photographers and business owners right now. Whether you were at WPPI too, you wanted to go, or you are just looking for fresh perspective in your business, I think this episode will give you a lot to think about.If you’ve been craving fresh inspiration or a reminder that you are not building this alone, this one is for you.

Most of them are small things that quietly add friction for potential clients. We talk about the simple changes that can make a big difference in how your website converts.

Honoring Women Photographers This International Women’s Day
2026/03/10
In this special International Women’s Day episode, I wanted to take a moment to celebrate the incredible women inside my coaching programs and share some of the momentum they’re building in their photography businesses. Watching photographers grow their confidence, raise their prices, and step into stronger positioning in their businesses is one of the most rewarding parts of the work I get to do. So today I’m sharing a few wins and updates from photographers inside the community who are doing amazing things right now. I’m also recapping my recent experience at WPPI (Wedding & Portrait Photographers International). Being surrounded by photographers from all over the world was such a reminder of how powerful community can be in this industry. Conferences like WPPI always bring fresh perspective, inspiration, and new conversations about where the photography industry is headed. This episode is also sponsored by Aftershoot, a tool many photographers use to streamline their editing workflow. One of the newest updates I’m excited about is that you can now train Aftershoot with just one Lightroom gallery. That means photographers can teach the AI their editing style much faster and start saving time in post-production while still maintaining their personal look. If you’re a photographer looking to grow your business, find community in the industry, and simplify your editing workflow, this episode is for you.

2026/03/03
If photography inquiries feel inconsistent or slower than you want, this episode is your reset. In this March Playbook episode, I’m breaking down how photographers can build real momentum by doubling down on what’s already working instead of chasing new strategies every month. Because sustainable growth in a photography business doesn’t come from constant reinvention. It comes from refinement. Inside this episode, we cover: How to identify which marketing channels are actually bringing inquiriesWhat messaging is converting your ideal clientsHow to optimize your visibility funnel instead of rebuilding itSimple ways to increase bookings without adding more to your plate If you want to grow your photography business in 2026, increase inquiries, and create consistent traction, this strategy matters. Momentum isn’t about doing more. It’s about amplifying what already works. Tune in and start building forward instead of starting over.

What To Do When You Aren't Getting Inquiries as a Photographer
2026/02/24
In this episode, Rachel Traxler dives into what to do when inquiries are down and why it is usually a visibility, funnel, or messaging issue rather than a reflection of your talent. She explains how to audit your visibility to ensure new people are consistently discovering you, identify leaks in your inquiry funnel that may be costing you bookings, and refine your messaging so it resonates with today’s buyers. You will walk away with clear, actionable steps to increase exposure, strengthen your systems, and create more consistent inquiries in your photography business.Free Resources from me I Mentioned: https://racheltraxler.com/shop 💛 Sponsor Love: Passion to Profit Coaching ProgramThis episode is brought to you by my coaching program!

Wedding Inquiries are Down... Let's Talk About it
2026/02/17
If your inquiries are slower than usual, this episode is your reminder to take a breath.Because fewer inquiries does not mean you failed. It means the economy shifted, buyers are behaving differently, and the old ways of attracting clients aren’t working the same way they used to.In this episode, Rachel breaks down what’s actually happening in the market right now and why so many talented photographers are feeling stuck, even when their work is solid and their experience is strong.We talk about how today’s buyers are more cautious, slower to commit, and doing far more research before ever hitting “contact.” That doesn’t mean they’re gone. It means you need to meet them in new places.Rachel walks you through three new doors to knock on when inquiries are down:Visibility channels that work before someone is ready to bookLong-term traffic sources that keep working even when social is quietRelationship-based opportunities that convert warmer, more aligned clientsThen she leaves you with five clear action steps you can take this week to create momentum again without overhauling your entire business or burning yourself out.This episode is part mindset reset, part strategy, and fully designed to help you move forward with confidence instead of panic.You’ll walk away with:Reassurance that this slowdown isn’t personalA clearer understanding of how buyers are thinking right nowPractical next steps to adapt your strategy and stay booked long-termIf you’ve been questioning yourself lately, this one’s for you.You’re not behind. You’re just being asked to evolve.Free Resources from me I Mentioned: https://racheltraxler.com/shop 💛 Sponsor Love: Passion to Profit Coaching ProgramThis episode is brought to you by my coaching program!

How to Add Photo and Video (Film) to A Package Seamlessly
2026/01/27
What if offering photo and film didn’t mean doubling your workload, learning new gear overnight, or turning your business upside down? In this episode, I sit down with the team from Salar Media to break down exactly how photographers can add video to their packages in a way that feels simple, profitable, and aligned with how you already work. This conversation is especially for photographers who: Keep hearing clients ask, “Do you offer video?” Feel intimidated by adding film to their services Want to increase booking value without adding chaos to their workflow We’re pulling back the curtain on how photo + film packages actually work in real life and how you can start offering them without becoming a full-time videographer. In this episode, we cover: Why couples are increasingly wanting both photos and video The easiest ways photographers can add film without burning out What you need to know to get started Pricing and packaging considerations when adding video Common mistakes photographers make when trying to offer film This episode is practical, honest, and meant to help you see video as an opportunity not an overwhelming add-on. If you’ve ever thought, “I love the idea of offering video, but I don’t know where to start,” this one is for you.

January Playbook: What You Should be Doing in January as a Photographer
2026/01/18
January can feel quiet in the photography world, and when inquiries slow down, it’s easy to let doubt creep in. In this episode, I’m walking you through The Photographer’s January Playbook: what I believe you should focus on when bookings feel lighter and the noise in your head starts getting louder. Instead of forcing momentum that doesn’t fit the season, I talk about how January can actually be one of the most strategic months of the year for your business. This episode is about using the slower pace intentionally so you can build stability now and set yourself up for a stronger year ahead. In this episode, I cover: Why a slower January doesn’t mean your business is failing How I think about funnels The mindset shifts that help me stay grounded Website updates that quietly increase conversions over time Backend systems and processes I focus on How I set realistic goals without burning myself out If you’re feeling discouraged by lower numbers, questioning your direction, or wondering what you should be doing right now, this episode is for you. January isn’t a dead month. It’s a setup month. Press play if you want clarity, calm, and a grounded plan for building momentum without forcing it. 💛 Sponsor Love: Passion to Profit Coaching ProgramThis episode is brought to you by my coaching program!

In this episode of That Photography Girl, we’re joined by the radiant and wildly talented Hope Taylor to talk about something photographers either love… or are slightly terrified of: same-day sneak peeks. But here’s the hot take…Same-day sneak peeks aren’t just a “nice touch.”They are a visibility engine. A referral magnet. A repeat-client creator. And honestly? One of the fastest ways to turn dreamy clients into lifelong hype-people for your brand.Hope breaks down: how she builds sneak peeks into her workflow without burning outwhy timing matters (the emotional high = the shareability high) what types of images to select for maximum impact how sneak peeks create instant social proof + buzzhow this strategy has shaped her brand reputation over the years We also talk about the reality behind it: balancing boundaries, editing efficiently, not feeling “behind,” and avoiding people-pleasing traps. Because yes, same-day sneak peeks can be magical… but they should also be sustainable. Key Takeaways Same-day sneak peeks aren’t about pressure. They’re about intention + experience Delivering images while emotions are fresh = organic reach you cannot buy Sneak peeks train clients to celebrate you, credit you, and share your work 🎥 Where to Find Hope Taylor Instagram: @hopetaylorphotography YouTube: Hope Taylor https://www.youtube.com/c/HopeTaylor Website: hopetaylor.com She’s a wealth of education, tough love, and joyful photography energy.
