There is a common theme in my business…. and I’m totally ok with it… I’m actually HONORED that this happens constantly. When I decide to CHANGE something in my business, there is a swarm of other business owners who are watching and want to know if they need to change too. I get it. Back in the day, I watched Jasmine Star like a hawk (Jstar, if you read this, it wasn’t in a creepy way, I promise!)
I just looked up to her so much and I considered her a GUIDE on my photography journey! So when we recently made a shift in the way we deliver free content to the world, we saw this happen again! When I started a Youtube Channel, there was a thread started in a few of our FB Group where people were asking a few big questions:
- Has Katelyn stopped blogging? Is blogging DEAD??
- Do I need a Youtube Channel now?
- What should I do in my own business?
Friends, I think there are ALWAYS more things you could be doing in your business.
The question is…… SHOULD YOU???
Just because I launched a Youtube Channel doesn’t mean that’s the best thing for you…. or is it?! You can find out in this BRAND NEW EPISODE that just went live today!!! Watch below! :
I’m partnering with Tyler Herrinton, the force behind ALL things video that we do in our business, and I hope this will help give a little insight into why I started using Video more in my business and what is best for you!!!!
Thanks for reading!

Oh, this wedding day!! What a beautiful Texan dream! I met Melanie when she attended one of our workshops years ago in our home. She had the sweetest spirit and such a kindness about her. I remember loving how she made personal marketing her own and did headshots in a pile of Skinny Pop!! I loved her creativity and her ability to envision what she wanted in her brand.
My review of the Canon EOS R6 after shooting a full wedding day is LIVE on Youtube! I was so nervous to use a brand new camera system for full wedding day… I had my Mark IV ready in my bag just in case… but thankfully, I never had to use it! I was really hoping that I would love it and feel comfortable with it….
This wedding venue may look familiar to some of you who have been following us for a while! I photographed Meghan’s brother’s wedding a few years ago at this very same farm and venue!
Natural light photographers…. (flash photographers, we know how you would handle these scenarios and that’s awesome for your style! This is for the natural light folks!)
I’ve been hoping for this day for a very long time…. but I wasn’t sure that it would ever come. That sounds dramatic but let me explain. I LOVE my website company. Showit is incredible and the more I learn about and experience other platforms for hosting and creating custom websites, the more I realize, they aren’t really, truly “custom” at all. Showit is the website design platform for the creative. Hands-down. It’s so powerful, so intuitive and so easy to use. Years ago, Showit created a way to implement a Showit theme onto a Wordpress blog!!! Genius! I couldn’t wait for my blog to be a Showit blog…. but it never happened.
If you are like me and you’re a natural light wedding photographer, you may not love using the Canon 600 EX-RT flashes. But they are so necessary!
