Aug 2, 2022

“If anyone is like me and has dealt with ADHD for a long time and just can’t seem to figure it out. I really encourage people to get the help you need and watch your life change.”

On this episode of The Profitable Photographer Podcast, I have guest Jason Marino sharing his ideas about creating an incredible client experience, and how he transitioned from weddings to portraits.. He also opens up about his challenge in life and in his photography business productivity: ADHD! 

164: Jason Marino = Photographer's Journey with ADHD plus Transitioning from Weddings to Portraits

Jason is known throughout the photo industry as a lighting, business and client experience expert. He and his wife JoAnne co-run a multi-brand photography company, Imagine Photography, in Arizona, just outside Sin City, Las Vegas. 

With a client roster spanning the globe and a bustling studio that has grossed well over a million dollars in recent years ( love to hear it!), Jason also keeps busy with regular appearances at notable conferences and educational summits.

In the midst of this, Jason has struggled with ADHD his whole life, but only recently opened up about it, finally seeking out the help that he needed. His life (AND PHOTOGRAPHY BUSINESS) is a million times better for it! 

Finally feeling focused, Jason and I chatted about: 

  • How treatment for ADHD changed his life and business
  • Best software for running your photography business
  • Creating a prominent brand in a small town
  • The “art of saying no”
  • And more!

Hearing how someone is wildly successful in this industry, while navigating the challenges

such as ADHD or any life issue is inspiring to say the least.
