Lisa Hammond started her career in photography after coming to the end of her rope as a teacher right after the birth of her son. As she started searching out a career as a creative entrepreneur, she found herself coming alive! Lisa has a passion for helping other creatives to fall in love with the business side of things so they can make a living doing what they love!

In this interview, we discuss the following:
- Consistency is key with her business.
- Networking with other wedding photography vendors (florists, wedding planners, etc) has been especially helpful for getting new clients. Lisa actually loves becoming friends with vendors that she networks.
- Getting to know her clients’ needs is huge. This also applies to vendors that she networks with.
