Photo Tips & Resources for Blogging and Instagram

Happy Wednesday, friends!

This week here on the blog I wanted to talk about some photo tips and resources that will help any of you content creators out there. Whether you take photos just for social media or use photography on your blog as well or for your business I have some things you could try!

First off having a consistent photo style as a content creator is key. For example whether I have my photographer take my photos or I take them myself they are always in the light and bright style. To achieve this myself I use my own presets which I love when I can’t work with my photographer. You can actually use these presets yourself as well! You can grab them HERE and start using them to better your photos!

Another resource that will help you elevate your photos is my E-book where I discuss how to figure out what content to shoot, how to figure out your style, my process, how to find a photographer that’s right for you, movement and posing and so much more! This resource is for you whether you work with a professional photographer or self shoot your photos! It comes with bonus items and actionable steps and will elevate your photo game! You can grab it HERE and start improving your photos today!

If you have any photo questions let me know in the comments!

Creating A Dream Blog You Can Monetize

Happy Wednesday friends!

Thank you so much to those of you that I’ve seen sign up for my blogging course waitlist! I really appreciate it!

I’m working on some updates in the course and am so excited to reveal it and open the doors to y’all! This course is a labor of love. When I started my blog almost 5 years ago it was HARD WORK! It was not easy to figure out and there wasn’t a course out there that walked you through how to create a blog and the fundamentals of blogging and how it could benefit you. I spent hours upon hours researching and trying to find the answers I thought why not create a course that could help other women create that dream blog that they could actually monetize? That how Building A Blog You Can Monetize came to be!

I would love to answer any questions you might have about the course and how it could benefit you and your business! Be sure to sign up for the waitlist HERE!

The Benefits of Blogging

Happy Wednesday friends!

Let’s talk blogging and all the benefits that blogging offers!

So many people don’t realize that blogging has tons of benefits when it comes to brand partnerships and your audience.

First off it’s so important to have a website/blog if you are an influencer or even a small business because if you are growing an audience on social media you also need a platform you own: your website. This will help reach more people and house everything for your brand where people can always find it. What if something happens to your social media? Then what? You need something that you actually own and control.

Having a blog will also help if you are an influencer and looking to expand your brand partnership offerings by offering blog posts along with social media posts. This is a great tool to help as brands love having blog posts to corelate with social media posts.

Social Media Consultant-Breaking It Down

Happy Wednesday friends!

I’ve recently been asked how exactly I help my clients with social media. Well I big part of what I do is help my clients with content creation. This could include photos, videos, reels, and more.

Now yes we all want more followers and engagement but at the end of the day the thing that attracts people and gets the followers and the likes is quality content. Without it you won’t be able to attract your ideal client.

As this has been a hot topic in my inbox I wanted to address that here. I’m a social media consultant and that entails many things and different things for each client. Content of course is a huge part, along with branding and what the client wants their social media and brand to look like, along with many other things.

10 Things To Do Before You Start A Blog

Happy Wednesday friend!

Let’s talk blogging and where to even start when creating a blog. Over the last few weeks I’ve gotten a lot of questions about how to even start blogging and what steps to take once you’ve decided to build a blog.

You’re in luck I’ve been blogging almost five years and when I first started there was nothing out there that gave me the exact steps to take to start building that blog.

This was a passion project for me as I didn’t have a resource like this so I made one for YOU! This checklist will give you the ten things you need to do before you start a blog and will help set you up for blogging success!

How Your Blog Can Serve Your Business

Happy Wednesday friends!

Let’s talk about blogging and how it can serve you and your business. Most people don’t understand that having a website with a blog on that site can open them up to many different opportunities for them and their business.

Having a blog on your site allows you to offer blog posts as a collaboration opportunity to brands and work with them. It also allows you to work with others in your community with guest posting on your blog or theirs as well. Also having a blog space on your site gives you room to talk and promote different things, whether you have online products, a store front, or offer a service talk about what you do and what you offer on your blog!

Lastly it’s important to have a space you drive your audience to from social media. Social media changes daily and it’s important to have a place that you control and bring people to no matter what!
