He turned down $25k, then made $300k+. (Student Spotlight with Frankie Chan)

4/29/2026
Imagine a wedding videographer who goes all-in on alignment, niching down, and grows to $300K+ in a year... Meet Frankie, one of my Business Blueprint coaching students. In this episode, I sit down with Frankie from Salt Shaker Films (one of my Business Blueprint students) who completely transformed his business. From $80–90K on the side, to turning down the wrong clients for him (even to the tune of $25k+ one month) to then making over $300K full-time as a videographer, this is what happens when skill meets strategy and conviction. If you’ve ever wondered what’s possible, this is it. Nathan’s Signature Coaching Program: THE BUSINESS BLUEPRINT Get my Free Inquiry & Follow Up Email & Text Templates Here!

What if your photos aren’t the reason clients aren’t booking you as a photographer? In this episode, we unpack the overlooked factor that truly drives client booking decisions—how people feel around you. I dive into why personality, presence, and connection often outweigh skill, and how you can intentionally grow in this area to book more clients and show up with confidence. • Why clients choose based on comfort, not just quality • The truth about personality growth and neuroplasticity • How to build social confidence through reps • Books, tools, and people that shape your communication • Leveraging your natural strengths to connect If you take this seriously, it could change everything about how you book and serve in your photography business. ⭐️Nathan’s Signature Coaching Program: THE BUSINESS BLUEPRINT Questions about the Business Blueprint?

Stop saying this to clients, and say THIS instead...

3/18/2026
Your words are either helping photography clients book… or quietly pushing them away. In this episode, I break down common phrases photographers say during inquiries and sales conversations that actually hurt bookings—and what to say instead to create clarity, urgency, and confidence. You’ll learn how small tweaks in your wording can dramatically improve your booking process. In this episode: • Why “I’ll let you know if someone else inquires” kills urgency • The problem with asking “How are you feeling so far?” • Why “Let me know your thoughts” overwhelms clients • How to handle “We need to think about it” the right way • Better ways to ask about a client’s vision • Why asking for a budget backfires • Moving beyond “bestie marketing” ⭐️Nathan’s Signature Coaching Program: THE BUSINESS BLUEPRINT Questions about the Business Blueprint?

His health battle nearly killed him. He's now a 6-Fig Photographer.

3/11/2026
What do you do when a health crisis takes over your business and more importantly - nearly your whole life? Eric Hillestad was 25 years old when his lungs began filling with blood. Doctors eventually placed him on ECMO — the most advanced life support available. Many people don’t survive it. Eric did. After weeks in the hospital, he had to relearn how to walk, breathe, and speak. He missed months of his newborn daughter’s life. Doctors told his family to prepare for the worst. But Eric’s story didn’t end there. Today he’s a wedding photographer, a father, and a Business Blueprint student who rebuilt his life — and his business — from the ground up. In this episode we talk about: • surviving a near-death medical crisis • rebuilding life and work after trauma • faith in the middle of fear • why his photography now carries a completely different meaning • and how he turned a struggling business into something sustainable for his family Eric’s story is raw, powerful, and deeply faith-filled.

She almost quit. Then she doubled her income. (Student Story with Olivia Tarkowski)

2/18/2026
"I’m giving myself one more year… and if by the start of 2026 this is still literally going nowhere… maybe this isn’t what I’m supposed to be doing." That's what Olivia Tarkowski (today's guest) said to her husband in January of 2025. Good grief did her story take a turn! Today, I'm joined by Business Blueprint student named Olivia, a wedding photographer who went from struggling to book consistently (she floated the idea of quitting at one point!) — to closing her books, doubling her income, and hitting 70–80% booking rates in just a few months. ...oh and then she hit $100k in 2025. We talk candidly about leaving corporate, walking through uncertainty, rebuilding her brand, and what changed when she finally surrendered control of her business to God. Her story is a real life story of faith, persistence, and breakthrough. If you’re in a slow season, questioning your calling, or wondering if this business can actually work — this episode is for you. ⭐️Nathan’s Signature Coaching Program:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠THE BUSINESS BLUEPRINT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⭐️ Questions about the Business Blueprint?

You asked, and I answered on this Q&A episode.

We also go into some juicy stuff: politics + pressure, sharing faith in business, and a nuanced take on tithing vs. generosity as a Christian entrepreneur.
