What does it really take to launch your elopement photography business in less than a year? Estonia-based photographer Eva-Johanna Lepik has the answer. Just 9 months after joining the Elopement Photography Mastermind, Eva has gone from shooting micro-weddings to building a thriving elopement photography business.

In this episode, Eva shares her journey of navigating life near the war in Ukraine, and how this change in her career has given her a sense of safety and stability for her and her family. She also explains why having a positive mindset is crucial for elopement photographers, and what she has done to attract her dream clients and shoot in places like the Dolomites and Italy!

Eva's story is proof that you don't have to wait years to build your dream elopement photography business. With hard work and the right mindset, it can happen sooner than you think.
