SUMMARY

I am very inspired by Cass's journey. Over the course of running her business, she has consistently honed her craft and built a brand that clients trust implicitly. Her dedication to her work and her ability to capture the essence of each wedding has made her a sought-after photographer both locally and internationally.

One of the key takeaways from our conversation was Cass's insights on attracting high-end, editorial-focused clients. She emphasized the importance of valuing your craft and your time. By doing so, she not only set a precedent for her worth but also attracted clients who were willing to invest in her as an artist. We then explored the ‘client experience’ and how crafting a personalised experience for her clients has been an integral part of her success. Her attention to detail, personal touch, and commitment to going the extra mile have left clients not just satisfied, but also raving about her services.
