I have to say, not necessarily relevant to the video, but you work so damn hard! I have Instagram, TH-cam, Vero etc and you post so much in depth content all the time! You deserve everything you get out of life because you put so much in. I think you post more content and more often than any other creator I follow.
You are a shining example of how to give of yourself 100% in life and I hope you continue to grow and thrive, because you truly deserve it!!!
🥹❤️ Your words made my day! Thank you so much for appreciating my work and most of all, for taking the time to letting me know. It means a lot and comments like this one are a HUGE motivation for me to keep doing what I do. So THANK YOU so much! ❤️ So happy to have you here and to know that you enjoy my content. Loads of love from London! xxx
As a fulltime caregiver for my family, I don't have alot of time. But the little time I do have, I endeavor to invest it well. Your instruction is a WISE investment. MUCH appreciate how you share all these personal experiences.. and with such brutal honesty, yes!!! So inspirational. I've followed your tutorials for a year now. Amazing how much you pack into one video lesson. I watch them again and again, and take so many notes! I have filled +200 pages of a large notebook of your generous instruction. Thank you so much for spurring us on, Laura. 😎
Thank you so much for sharing your story! 😍 And omg… thank you for such amazing feedback about my videos. It fills my soul with joy to know that you enjoy them and you’re learning from them. ❤️ Thank you for being here supporting my channel. It means so much! Big big love!
💙👍...Laura, you deserve your well-earned success and will go even further in your career.

Seriously, comments like this one really make my day! 🥹❤️ THANK YOU so so much for your support and your amazing words. They really motivate me to keep creating. Sending you loads of love from London! ✨
I used to be a Professional Photographer, But now I am a very HAPPY amateur Hobby Photographer !
Laura I think the biggest problem alot of people have is, what if they dont like my photoshoot
what if, they hate it? I think they are worried that the people they shoot for is not going to like
the style and ashamed of being turned down or what price they should give to their client
to be interested, not to much and not to little. This is the part where we lose the motivation
of what "if" they say no.
I was feeling unmotivated and thought - nope I'm going to watch one of your videos and immediately the sun shines brighter and I feel energized once again! Thank you for the great videos you've helped a lot!!
Awww it’s normal to feel unmotivated sometimes. 🙏🏼 But I’m so so glad to know that my videos helped you to feel motivated again! 😍 Keep it up! Big hug from London! ❤️
Thank you for the sound advice on making the transition.
So excited for your course 🤩

Thank you John! I hope you’re doing well in your creative path and you’re keeping creative! 😊
Muito bom, como sempre! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
😍 Thank youuuu! ❤️
@@LauraBC 😘
Estos vídeos son los más motivadores, me siento muy identificado con la situación de trabajar para eventualmente poder dejar mi trabajo y hacer de la fotografía mi trabajo, es algo que me motive todos los días.
Sigo trabajando en ello, gracias por los consejos!
Gracias de nuevo por tu trabajo y esfuerzo haciendo este contenido.
Thanks!
😍 Thank you so much for supporting me and my channel! This means so so much, I really appreciate it. THANK YOU! 🥹❤️
@@LauraBC I love your vids and positive vibes you put out in the world! 🤗🤗🤗
Laura, I love your videos. What camera would you recommend for a beginner? I would like to build a portfolio and start making money immediately
You are an exception Madam Laura...❤❤❤
Thank you Tamal! 🥰❤️
@@LauraBC Welcome Madam.
The whole video was helpful but two things stood out to me, firstly is "How bad do you want it?" The second is the pressure to make your rent will push you to do your best and that is what will make you grow and reach your potential, I am at the crossroads of jumping over and this piece of info is what I needed. Thank you
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😍 Yeah, adding pressure to myself did work. 😄 I can’t recommend it because it’s very risky. But if you trust your hard work, that tip may work for you too. Thanks for being here and leaving a comment. I wish you all the best in this career! 💪🏼❤️
Earlier than normal :) saludos Laura un fuerte abrazo. Cuando comienzas tus viajes ?
Yesss! I think I’ll start being by more flexible when posting. See how it goes. 🥰 I have HUGE news coming up very soon. En menos de un mes… 🤩❤️
@@LauraBC I share your happiness, excited to see what you have coming up.
i hope you're reading this, What if i only have camera and a lens in mine.
Should i need a reflector or a lighting, for that.. Now i don't have it, Is it okay to take photos in strangers without small gear etc?
Please.. I need your words.
How do you make money with landscape photography?
at 40 I always feel like I've missed the chance to make it a monetary career so now I just hope to make ends meat and enjoy it
hello from Lithuania :) I recently started interesting in photography, I took a canon 760D camera and 3 lenses (18-135mm F/3.5-5.6 , 50mm F/1.4 and 12mm F/2.8) from my brother, is such a setup good for a beginner?
Helloooo! So excited for you! That’s an awesome kit for a beginner. I started with just one lens! 😍 I hope you enjoy my channel and your new incredible journey with photography! 📸
Are you a musician too?
From Indonesian 🇮🇩❤️
I'm retired and want to put my lens back into the picture.
🥰🥰🥰
😊❤️
That’s great and all but to be honest, I will never quit my job because I need a pension. I cannot live in photography alone when I retire I probably will do that when I retire for extra money.
There are many ways to get a pension. As a freelancer there are incredible options to save for retirement. 🥰 Things have changed a lot. There are great ways now to get “safety” after retirement.
🥰😍
Thank you Laura ❤
