When you run a photography studio with your partner, it can be a balancing act between creative vision, business management, and just keeping your sanity. On this episode Scott sits down with Lori and Jeff Poole to unpack how they built multiple successful photography businesses under one roof (while still being married to each other).
Jeff and Lori Poole, owners of IndigoSilver Studio in Wilmington, North Carolina, specialize in boutique boudoir portraiture and wedding photography. With over 15 years of experience, they also run Photo Insight, an educational platform for photographers. Through their coaching programs, they help fellow photographers adapt to industry changes and run successful, profitable studios.
Lori and Jeff share how they divided responsibilities, streamlined their processes with automation, created a welcoming studio environment (with sets they built themselves), and keep workflows moving even with a preschooler at home. From their strategies for lead generation to same-day IPS sessions, you’ll discover tactics you can actually use to grow your photography business, without burning out.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
