#275: What If You Bumped Into a Photography Client Today? Here's How to Turn Hellos Into Sessions

What if running into a past client at the grocery store could turn into your next big booking? It’s not just possible—it’s powerful. In this episode, I’m sharing how to shift your mindset, show up with confidence, and turn everyday moments into meaningful connections that grow your business.

You don’t need a pitch. You need a plan—and I’ll walk you through it.

• The 10-minute habit that preps you for unexpected client encounters
• What not to say when you recognize someone (and what to say instead)
• How to gracefully guide a casual conversation into a future session or referral

You’re just one warm hello away from your next client. This episode shows you how to make it count.
