Summary
Today I’m sitting down with Josh and Lily of McKinley Made Photo & Film (Wedding Photographer and Videographer team), Business Blueprint students who went from being overworked, underpriced, and stretched thin — to breaking $200K in a year as a photo + video duo. We talk honestly about what actually changed: raising prices, refining their client experience, rebuilding confidence, investing before it felt comfortable, and trusting God through the uncertainty of entrepreneurship. No theory. No hype. Just a behind-the-scenes look at what growth really looked like for them. If you want proof that change is possible — this episode delivers. What We Cover: Why booking more weddings wasn’t the answer — and what was How they raised prices (and didn’t lose momentum) Booking their highest package ever right after relaunching The mindset shift that unlocked better clients Going from survival mode to structure + clarity Building a photo + video duo business without burning out Investing in your business when it feels risky How faith played a role in navigating uncertainty What they’d tell their past selves before making the leap ⭐️Nathan’s Signature Coaching Program: THE BUSINESS BLUEPRINT ⭐️ Questions about the Business Blueprint?
