  • The most relevant dog photography podcast for soloprenuers.

    Ina, a successful working pet photographer in Australia, saw an opportunity after The Pet Photographers Club shut down and took the brave leap to create her own podcast. For such a new podcast she has already created an amazing amount of valuable content and interviewed quite a few industry leading guests along with guests at the grassroots of the industry. There are nuggets of learning in every episode and Ina asks great questions to get the most value for her audience.

Inspiration, Copying, and the Courage to Own Your Creative Vision with Cat Race
Q: What is the point of looking at someone's photo for inspiration versus copying? What's your stance on that?
Inspiration is fine, but you should add your own unique spin and credit the source when appropriate; copying an exact setup becomes problematic and can alienate audiences. The balance lies in learning from others, then transforming the idea into something personal and original that reflects your own voice.
