Laurel McConnell has the kind of personality that you can’t help but adore, and she does an amazing job of showing that bright personality throughout her work.
Laurel was originally studying psychology at the University of Washington when she made a dramatic leap and enrolled in the Art Institute of Seattle to study commercial photography.
After college, she found herself in a bust economy with plenty of student loans. After an advisor set her up to photograph her first wedding, she was hooked.
As Laurel puts it, a lot of people get caught up in the art and fun of photography, and they forget to build a solid business plan and business structure. Hear more about Laurel’s story, as well as her sound business advice in this week’s episode of Field Notes.
