| 0:00.0 | Is it possible to make as much from a portrait session as you can from photographing a wedding? |
| 0:06.7 | Today my student, Kaci Jobert, is joining me to talk about just that. Kaci is a 16-year |
| 0:14.1 | wedding photographer who loves weddings, which I think is so cool. She had recently had a 40-minute |
| 0:20.0 | portrait session that generated more income than her largest wedding collection ever, which is so cool. |
| 0:27.5 | If you're a photographer who does weddings and portraits and you're trying to hit the |
| 0:31.9 | sixth figure mark and you're burning yourself out in the process, you're going to want to listen today. |

| 1:43.2 | we're going to go a lot of places, but what I love about you is that you love weddings, which I |
| 1:48.8 | know there are a lot of wedding photographers out there who dislike weddings and are trying badly |
| 1:53.3 | to get out of them, but what's your view on that? I guess I'm a geek at, I mean I love love. I think |
| 2:04.0 | even when you're photographing in the same location every couple, every relationship brings its |
| 2:09.8 | own flavor or spice to the venue and I think that's what kept me coming back year after year. |
