Hey everyone! In this episode, Peyton shares practical advice on growing a photography business through networking, word-of-mouth marketing, and collaboration. We also talk about balancing creativity with business, hosting retreats, working with other photographers, and simple ways to create more authentic images by letting go of perfection.
Meet Peyton:
Peyton Hayez is a photographer who refuses to be boxed into a single niche. She believes creativity exists in everything, from weddings to education, branding, and storytelling. While she’s known for her candids and ability to capture real emotion, her greatest passion is helping other photographers build confidence in both their craft and their businesses through immersive retreats, education, and community-driven experiences. She has a deep love for entrepreneurship, meaningful connection, and bringing ambitious ideas to life.
This season is an exciting one for Peyton. In August, she’s hosting Camp Cinematic, a multi-day photography retreat that brings together photographers for hands-on education, styled shoots, creative collaboration, and community. Peyton has also released Post with Purpose, a course designed to help photographers attract their dream clients with intentional messaging, authentic storytelling, and sustainable business strategies.
