In this episode of Oh Shoot! with Cassidy Lynne (@cassidylynne), I’m breaking down exactly how I’d spend $5,000 if I were starting my photography business from scratch today. We’re talking used gear, insurance, editing, a website, a CRM, and booking your first clients, with real prices for everything. Plus, I’m sharing what I would NOT spend money on as a beginner, so you can stretch every dollar.

In this episode of Oh Shoot! with Cassidy Lynne (@cassidylynne), I’m spilling all the intrusive thoughts that run through my head during a photo session, from “did I format my cards” to “do they think my prompts are cringe.”

In this episode of Oh Shoot! with Cassidy Lynne (@cassidylynne), I'm reading your most cringe-worthy texts sent to (and from) clients by accident. From a groom receiving a flirty bathroom selfie to a very unfortunate autocorrect, these stories prove we've all been one wrong tap away from disaster. Triple check who you're texting after this one.

In this episode of Oh Shoot! with Cassidy Lynne (@cassidylynne), I'm breaking down exactly how I handle shooting in direct sunlight, full sun, sun behind your subject, finding shade, and even window light indoors. I'm sharing my go-to camera settings, how to avoid weird shadows, and when a sun flare is actually worth chasing.

In this episode of Oh Shoot! with Cassidy Lynne (@cassidylynne), it's a catch-up episode! I'm talking about my recent (unwanted) roommates: bats in my room, my trip out to Sony Kando, and my thoughts on driving long distances before or after a wedding shoot.

In this episode of Oh Shoot! with Cassidy Lynne (@cassidylynne), I'm combining two of the show's most requested topics: starting a photography business from scratch and what I'd do differently if I started over today. I'm walking through my own story, the things I got right, the mistakes that cost me time and money, and the exact 10 steps I'd follow if I were building my business from zero right now.
