If you’re wondering if moving your elopement photography business across the country can actually work, my guest is living proof that it’s possible. Natasha Cardinal is a Washington-based elopement photographer, but she wasn’t always one! She started off as a wedding photographer in New York and eventually moved her business to Washington state, where she shifted gears to focus on elopement photography.
Natasha shares her journey of rebuilding her business from the ground up in a new state. She talks about how she struggled to gain traction at the beginning, having to rebuild her network and learn about the market. It wasn’t until she niched down to elopement photography and found the Elopement Photographer Mastermind that things began to change. She ran Google Ads to her website and that’s when she started to see success.
Natasha also talks about the importance of creating an incredible client experience. Yes, she takes beautiful pictures, but she also builds genuine relationships with each couple that go beyond the wedding day.
In this episode, we chat about:
- Natasha’s backstory - going from commercial photography to elopement photography
- The struggle Natasha had with her business when she moved to Washington
- How Natasha ramped up her business - Using Google ads to drive people to her website
- What Natasha’s client experience is as an elopement photographer and how it helps her build trust with her clients
- Natasha’s favorite elopement so far
