You are listening to the Passion with Purpose podcast with Nathan Shansky.

All right, you guys, so we're going to take a little bit of a different direction with today's podcast.

So if you have ever wondered, what if I love photography, but let's say wedding photography,

maybe isn't just right for me.

Or if you are in wedding photography and you love what you're doing, but you just have so much

curiosity for like other aspects of your photography or other avenues to make money with photography.

So if any of those kind of like resonate with you a little bit or just have ever interested

you, this episode's going to be exactly for you. So I have the amazing

privilege of chatting today with Abby Joe Harmon of Abby Joe Photos. And she is the absolute

perfect person to talk to you about this topic. So I followed Abby for a while. She is an

incredible wedding photographer located in Southern California,

and she just has this infectious and fun personality and go get her spirit. She's not

afraid to buck the system and do what she's passionate about. And she has been a wedding photographer

for many years, but she is actually talking today with us all about her pivot from weddings, mainly doing weddings

as a photographer to working with brands and businesses as a photographer instead.

So there's like so many topics in here that I think a lot of people can relate to and just

talking about like pivoting when it feels right and just talking about like

kind of going into a different lane in photography and finding like what works for you.

And it's so fun because I feel like she's right in the middle of this pivot in so many ways.

And oftentimes I love to get people talking about something like right when they're in the

middle of something because oftentimes you get like the best nuggets of wisdom out of them at that point like right when they're going through it. So it's such an amazing topic. I can't wait for guys to hear it. Before we get into this episode, I actually just want to take a second to say, I know I ask you guys for reviews a lot and it means the absolute world, but I just want to actually just, I'm not going to ask you for a review today. I just want to tell you that it means so much. I just looked in there today

and I have about 40 already, which is just like so crazy to me, like 40 fully written reviews
