476: Arica Dorff – How to have your own photography supported road tripping adventure

Premium Members, click here to access this interview in the premium area. Arica Dorf of www.aricadorff.com was born in Japan, raised in Hawaii, and moved to Las Vegas while earning her Degree in Psychology. Today, she's a pet photographer with a different business model than most. She sets off on annual pet photography road trips for around three months every year! And YES, she takes the following nine months off to live the van-life!  Accompanied by her bloodhound, Gracie, they set off on a route dictated by the photography bookings in a fully decked-out camper-van. Last year, her working photography road trip took her literally from one side of the country and back again! All this after nine successful years as Las Vegas' top pet photographer and employing staff.  Interestingly, you'll hear that Arica is financially better off working three months of the year compared to working full time in her Las Vegas studio.  In this interview, Arica shares everything you need to start and run your own photography-supported, road-tripping adventure.  Here's some more of what we covered in the interview: What’s on Offer for Premium Members If you’re a premium member, you should have received an email with links to your version of this interview – the full-length and more revealing version where you hear the absolute best tips and advice from every guest.
