Nice video. Solid advice.

[@veritylacey7671]

How helpful are you - all these links below are amazing ❤ Thank you so much x

[@Scenebyjen]

Incredibly helpful, thanks so much!

[@FilipLjungberg]

Enlightening video. 😊

[@johnclay7644]

informative video.

[@veritylacey7671]

Hi Rebecca, as a total newbie I’ve looked at the software links below your video and it seems like they all do a similar thing. Do you use them for different aspects of your business?

[@strongsarah3]

Hey Rebecca! Thanks so much for all of the free guidance you're giving! It's worth its weight in GOLD for me! I do have a question. I've done all of the above, including starting my LLC, and I'm at the point where I'm getting families and couples in front of my camera to give them images just as a gift while I build my portfolio up. If they're not paying me, do you recommend having them sign a contract anyway? I.E. a minor release agreement?

[@RebeccaRiceEducation]

Yes absolutely! That way even things like the turnaround time and such are set and agreed upon beforehand in the contract.

[@blessedmamalife]

Which website host do you recommend? I think that’s the correct term..like square space, blue host, pixie set, etc

[@RebeccaRiceEducation]

Showit is my favorite! You can get a free month here: account.showit.co/r/p142hh1l

[@kayshanelle2]

When you first started were you a sole proprietor or did you go for your LLC immediately?

[@RebeccaRiceEducation]

I started out as a sole proprietor.

I wish I didn’t start photography in 2014 did something else so west time and money too complicated and for little money per project That was my big mistake in my life I thank you
