Today we’d like to introduce you to Emily Young
Hi Emily, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Hi, I’m Emily.
I am the owner of Photos by Emily Rose, LLC. Here is a little bit about me:
I am a published photographer in multiple magazines. My interest in photography started in middle school. For as long as I can remember, I was the girl behind the camera at every event/gathering with family and friends. I have always been fascinated with the fun and creative parts of photography; and how you can make a single moment last forever. I photograph weddings, couples, lifestyle, and more!
Whenever I am not behind a camera or working, I enjoy spending time with my significant other, and best friend, Rhett. We love to spend time with our little one, family and friends. I am a full time college student, I work at a local cancer center/research institute, and I am a server at a local restaurant.
Jesus is our #1. I am who I am because of God’s never-ending love!
I bring my camera EVERYWHERE. You never know when you may see something interesting or have a photo opportunity. My camera roll on my phone is FULL of sky pictures and scenery. No matter the event, style, or place; I can’t wait to hear from you so we can capture the best memories that you and your loved ones can cherish for a lifetime!
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
On any business journey, you’re going to run into roadblocks and competition. There have been times where I have had to take a step back from photography and focus on my full-time job and college. But of course, photography being my passion, I always found my way back to doing what I love. As of this year, I officially became a business owner and obtained my LLC. In terms of photography being a very competitive business, I have discovered that studying different types of advertisement, and being a business owner has helped me significantly this year with my clientele. I am a part of many online photography communities, where other veteran photographers share their tips and tricks, and that has been very helpful.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
A part from being a professional photographer/business owner and photographing many important moments in peoples lives; I am a full-time college student and have two other jobs. I have worked in the medical field since I graduated high school in 2015. I also recently began serving at a local restaurant near my home. I am actively pursuing my college degree in healthcare administration. Caring for others and giving back to my community is something I love to do. I love working with people and making people happy; this is the main reason why I recently got a job as a server.
How do you define success?
For me personally, success is setting goals and reaching those goals; but most importantly, never giving up. It’s okay to set a goal and fail, but it’s important to never stop believing in yourself and to get back up and try again until you succeed.
