🎉 This one feels pretty special…

We’ve officially passed 5,000 families signed up to our School Photo Subscription at Happy Days Creative.

And seeing that number tick over 5,000 was a bit of a moment for us.

When we first came up with the idea of a school photo subscription, we didn’t know how families would respond to it. We just knew we wanted to try something different.

We wanted to make school photography more affordable and give families the opportunity to have more photographs of their children as they grow through their school years.

What started as an idea has now become something that over 5,000 families have chosen to be part of.

There’s been plenty of learning, tweaking and figuring things out along the way but seeing it grow to this point makes all of that worthwhile.

A massive thank you to our team, the schools we work with and every single family who has signed up and supported what we’re trying to do. 💜

We’re really proud of this one.

5,000 families… and we’re only just getting started. 📸

📖 Well... here it is!

After keeping this under wraps for a while, I can finally reveal the cover of something I've spent a LOT of time working on...

The School Photography Business Handbook.

It still feels slightly strange seeing it as an actual book!

I've tried to create something I genuinely wish I'd had when I first started out in school photography.

It's full of the things I've learned along the way, the things that have worked, the things that haven't, the mistakes I've made and the lessons that have helped shape the business we have today.

There's plenty more I want to tell you about it, but I'm going to save some of that for another day. 👀

For now, I'm putting together a small VIP SNEAK PEEK list.

Before the book is officially released, I'm going to give a small group of people the chance to get an early look at it and see what's inside.

Fancy being one of them?

👇 Comment SNEAK PEEK below and I'll add you to the VIP list.
And there it is... my first ever book cover reveal! 😬📖

📖 I've been working on something I'm really excited to finally start talking about...

When I first got into school photography, I remember trying to figure so much of it out for myself.

How do you actually build a school photography business?
How do you get schools?
How do you price things?
What systems do you need?
What happens when you start growing?
And what are the mistakes you really want to avoid?

I always wished there was something I could pick up that was written by someone actually doing it.

So... I've created it.

I've been working on The School Photography Business Handbook, sharing what I've learned from building my own school photography business, including plenty of things I've got right and quite a few I've got wrong!

It's not about telling people there's one "right" way to do school photography.

It's about sharing a way and hopefully helping other photographers find their own.

I'm not going to give too much away just yet...

But I'm really looking forward to showing you more very soon. 👀📖
