Wanted to share a story of something I did the other day.

I've been trying to get my IRL photography business off the ground so I went and posted up at the local riverfront to advertise directly to potential customers. I was scared out of my mind but I managed to hand out 5 business cards and got two follows on the new Instagram.

I learned some things for next time and really had some fun talking to people that were excited to have a good picture of themselves. Moral of the story, it seems daunting but it really wasn't as bad as my mind has hyped it up to be. Get out there and make some new connections!

Tldr: Was nervous to talk to the public but kicked ass and took names ๐Ÿ˜Ž
