Please talk to us about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
The Biggest challenge has been adjusting my mindset from being a worker to being an entrepreneur. I have learned that my success has no limit.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Chapter 8 Studio LLC?
Chapter 8 Studio is a Luxury Branding Firm that is built on Photography and Vision Strategy. We apply pressure in the areas of Branding and Marketing. Our goal is that you experience Luxury while building a legacy. We have two teams that we work alongside. Our first team is our Core Team of Consultants. That includes a virtual stylist, a cosmetologist, and a Brand/Website Specialist; we consider them our Core because they deal with the basics of image branding. Our second group of consultants is referred to as our Advanced Consultants. They focus on the area of Business Strategy and Implementation. We have a legal strategist, public relations specialist, business assessment, and social media and digital systems specialist. They secure the legacy of your business to ensure that your foundation is strong for growth and longevity! We create a Luxury environment by providing unique benefits that take away certain burdens from our clients. Those benefits include no time restrictions, travel fees, a luxury home included, a make-up artist on set, and a virtual stylist to help you prepare. To go the extra mile, we offer a workbook titled “How To Prepare for a Photo Shoot” so that you arrive at your session feeling confident. Not graduating from college made me question who I was, my worth, and how I contributed to society. I realized I was seeing myself from a broken lens. Once I surrounded myself with the right people, I began to see myself from a true perspective. Confidence, Self-Love, and Empowerment rise when you see from that healed lens. I want to help people see themselves from a true perspective and empower them to envision the change they desire.
Do you have any advice for those just starting?
