I love how she just tells you how it is and doesn’t try to be all mysterious or secretive about her methods. How refreshing! She is one of my all-time favorites.

I loved this advice from her: ‘“If I were already successful and had all the clients I needed, would I take this job? Would I run this promotion?” Understandably, sometimes we just need the money, but always keeping in the forefront of your mind what you want your successful business to look like will guide your decisions and get you there much more quickly.’

Now this is a mentoring session I would love to attend! So many lightbulbs went off just by reading this interview. Questions to ask myself and thinking in a different way about what our portfolio’s say about ourselves as photographer’s. I want to print this interview and bring it out to read from time to time! Good stuff!

My favorite part of Joyce’s interview were her images. They are so pretty, so real and in the moment. Simply gorgeous perfection. Her answers to questions felt just as real and sincere as her images reflect.

love that she said she loves the sitting/not moving baby stage…. definitely my fave! Especially now that my 11 month old is walking! So hard to get good photos until they are old enough to direct in sitting still again.

I love that she is completely honest with herself and others about how she does things,as well as how she feels. Alot of people these days are too fearful of what others may think to express how they really feel and to tell others the way they do things in business and their daily life. I appreciate an honest, confident person.

I am no professional photographer, only an avid ethusiast aspiring to be a photographer. I have no photography education behind me, I am learning by self-teaching and lots of research. I would be honored to read her material, since she has made a successful career with being self-taught and doing what she loves. Thats where I want to be, one day :) She is an inspiration to us aspirings.

I love Joyce and her incredible line of products, this would be a lessing to win!!!

I love how confident she seems with her skills. And I love her method training, it’s nice to know that you don’t have to go to school to study photography to be an awesome photographer.

Everything! And I thought the idea of checking Google StreetViews before a session was genius! I’m often traveling to places I’ve never been before and just trusting that I’ll find something. This is a much better idea!

I love Joyce’s forms! Her senior pricing guide saved me many hours of pondering {what to say} ;)

I enjoy seeing where they come from. Being from a science background turned photography. I love seeing that others can change from one world to another in photography. Plus what a great way to incorporate her education background, so helpful to the rest of us!!

I love that she keeps it simple and only brings her camera on shoots.

What i loved most about Joyce Smith’s article was her honesty in all her answers. She did not try to skirt around any questions and shared how she shoots, what she is thinking and ideas to think about as a photographer.

Simplicity ~ I love that you can make such beautiful art so simply!

I love her photos, but more importantly what I got from reading that interview. I am going to try to simplify things when I do an on-location shoot. I love the softness of her photos.

I love Joyce’s approach to making the client comfortable both before and after the shoot. Her attention to detail and her and making sure everything is perfect is inspiring. I have longing after her products for some time!
