So you all know how I arrived at this point (if not check out this blog) and now you might be wondering what next?
As the title of this post suggests, I am building this new business during nap time, very limited time on a good day, and that's ok! Absolutely no rush. I have lots of practice to get under my belt first before I will be comfortable charging for shoots plus I want to enjoy Summer with our babies before they start nursery in August.
I do however plan to launch at the end of this year (2023) and I have to say, I'm pretty excited!
Business plans always evolve, or at least they should, and mine has already started to go in a different direction from what I initially planned.
I want to work with two very different groups - families and small business. It became clear very quickly that this wouldn't work under one umbrella and so Amanda Hughes Photography was born! Shot by Amanda will look after lovely small business's for their brand and product photography needs, and, Amanda Hughes Photography will look after my lovely families for relaxed, lifestyle family shoots. Perfect. This does require me to build two whole new websites though so again, no rush, will all be done in good time.
Whilst I work away behind the scenes on all of the logistics, I'm building a portfolio on social media through model calls and working with several small business's as a brand rep. I'm also wrapping up my floristry business at the minute too so there is plenty to keep me busy that's for sure!
I'm really excited to share my bigger plans with you nearer the end of the year but in the meantime, be sure to like, save, share and comment on Instagram - it really does help!
Speak soon,
Amanda xx
This is fantastic xx
Love it xx
