Beth Alexander of www.unleashpetphotography.com has been a long time PhotoBizX member and a pet photographer with the dream of supplying affordable, stunning pet photographs to local pet lovers with her mobile pet photography studio.
I receive Beth's email newsletter updates and have been following along as she built out her very own Mobile Pet Photography Studio.
Then I recently received this personal email from her…
The last month has been crazy with finalising things and getting the trailer ready inside and out for the end of August launch.
Before covid hit I started working with Alex Cearns which has been great, she is so knowledgeable, it's been great.
We ran a Facebook Promo to Celebrate the Launch of the trailer.
I ended up choosing 80 people, booked 30 so far, and I have ten more to talk to this week, which means I'll probably book 40 sessions!
I'm pretty darn happy with these numbers!
Last week I had four sessions in the trailer and have seven booked for this week.
The trailer workflow has been going nicely, arrive, setup, text them that I'm waiting for them outside their house, do a session, they take a break out of the trailer while I edit one image, they come back to view all the photos and place their order, everything takes about 2 hours right now.
That's all I have for you right now, I just wanted to say hi and share the great news!
Have a great day,
Beth
I immediately replied, asking if she'd be happy to come on and share more about her pet photography business.
She said yes, and in this interview, Beth shares how to set up a successful mobile pet photography studio.

iTunes Reviews and Shout-outs
Each week I check for any new iTunes reviews and it's always a buzz to receive these… for a couple of reasons.
Firstly, it's confirmation that I'm on the right track with the interviews and that they really are helping you improve your photography business. That's awesome!
Secondly, iTunes is the biggest search engine when it comes to podcasts and it's your reviews and ratings that help other photographers find PhotoBizX. More listeners mean more interviews and ultimately a better show.
If you have left a review in the past, thank you! If you haven't and you'd like to, head to https://photobizx.com/itunes and you can leave some honest feedback and a rating which will help both me and the show and I'll be sure to thank you on the show and add a link to your website or blog if you let me know the URL of your website and your name.
Alternatively, if you've left a review for PhotoBizX and are looking for more backlinks to help your SEO, leave a review for the new Photography Xperiment Podcast and email me your keywords or keyword phrase and where you'd like me to link to.
Another great way to get a backlink to your site is to send a video testimonial. It doesn't need to be fancy and your phone will be perfect. Click record and tell me how PhotoBizX has made a difference to you and your photography business.

Thank you!
Thanks again for listening and thanks to Beth for coming on to share her thoughts and ideas on creating a successful mobile pet photography studio while fulfilling her dream to make sure every pet lover can access beautiful and affordable photographs of their pets.
I kind of want to just make sure that they're happy and if that's all they want, then that's all they want. Because really, even if I do have a goal, it's not about me, it's about them and what they want to do with the pictures. – Beth Alexander
