My Time at GotPhoto Summer Camp 2026 in Louisville 📸

This June, I had the incredible opportunity to attend GotPhoto's Volume Photography Summer Camp 2026 in Louisville, Kentucky — and I'm still buzzing from everything I learned, everyone I met, and the inspiration I brought home with me.

For those who haven't heard of it, Summer Camp brings together hundreds of volume photographers from all over for several days of workshops, live shoots, and expert-led sessions — all focused on helping studios like Heart & Soul Photography grow smarter and serve clients better.

What I Took Away

Between sessions on pricing strategy, marketing, and scaling a small business, I walked away with so many practical tools I can't wait to put into action — everything from sharpening how we approach school and sports photography to fresh ideas for connecting with clients like you.

But honestly? My favorite part wasn't even the workshops — it was the people. Getting to talk shop with other photographers who deal with the exact same challenges and wins as I do (hello, wrangling 200 kids for picture day) made the whole trip feel less like a conference and more like a community.

What This Means for You

Every time I invest in learning and growing as a photographer, it comes back around to benefit my clients — better workflows, smarter pricing, fresh ideas, and continued passion for this work I love so much. I'm so excited to bring everything I learned in Louisville back home and put it to work for you.

Thank you to GotPhoto for putting together such an incredible event, and to everyone I connected with along the way. Here's to another great year at Heart & Soul Photography! 💛📷
