Live Coaching Call: Finding Confidence, Consistency, and Clients

Finding Confidence, Consistency, and Clients with Bree Ruby Photography

What happens when you love photographing pets but struggle with pricing, consistency, and building confidence in your offers?

In this live coaching call, I chat with Bree Colenso of Bree Ruby Photography, a Melbourne-based pet photographer with a background as a vet nurse who specialises in heartfelt end-of-life sessions. Bree is passionate about creating meaningful memories for her clients, but like many photographers, she’s been navigating the challenges of growing her business sustainably.

In this episode we talk through:

  • Building confidence in pricing and learning to charge for the full value of your work
  • How to avoid projecting money fears onto clients
  • The importance of pre-session education and creating an easy “yes” offer
  • Why consultations and guiding clients step-by-step leads to stronger sales
  • Practical strategies to generate consistent bookings and grow beyond “hustle and hope”

Bree’s honesty and openness in this session will resonate with anyone who has ever questioned whether they’re “good enough” or worried about whether clients will buy. If you’ve been stuck in self-doubt or struggling to bring in consistent revenue, this episode is for you.

Building Confidence and Consistency in Your Pet Photography Business.
Welcome to The Pet Photographers' Journal, a practical and unfiltered podcast for talented pet photographers ready to build a business with more purpose, passion, and profitability.

I’m Ina J, a pet photographer who turned my side hustle into my full-time career. In this podcast, I share exactly what I’ve learned and actually applied in my own business. We talk about pricing, mindset, marketing, client experience, and sales, without feeling pushy.

Some lessons I picked up from others but I always tweak things to work for me and I’ll tell you how you can too. I overshare sometimes but in the best way possible because I believe in learning from real-life experiences not just theory.

Whether you’re just starting or scaling to five-figure sales this show is your behind-the-scenes guide to pet photography business success.
