Premium Members, click here to access this interview in the premium area. Neyssa Lee of www.neyssalee.com is a Seattle-based lifestyle family, newborn and maternity photographer in the USA. She's also a mother of six! Her beautiful website clearly states her family sessions start at $925, which surprised me a little because this email had me reaching out for an interview… Hey Andrew,   I was listening to the episode with Katrina Ferguson and loved that you featured a non-6-figure photographer.   I have been running a photography business for 13 years, all while growing a family (I have six kids, between 1 and 11).   I grew my business without Facebook ads or a substantial social media following.   This past year I have leaned into helping other photographers who are early in business and want to grow in a way that is sustainable for raising a family.   In the photography business world, I know firsthand how you can feel less than a mom and a photographer. However, I know that my business is important, as is my voice in this industry. In this interview, Neyssa shares how to attract paying clients to your photography business without free sessions.  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.
