Often Ambitious: A Photography & Business Podcast
Often Ambitious is for photographers, creatives, and entrepreneurs who want to work less, make more, and build a business that actually supports their life, not one that runs it.
Hosted by business strategist Alora Rachelle, this show is grounded in lived experience. Alora built a six-figure wedding photography business while raising kids, then went on to help wedding photographers generate over $3 million in collective revenue through Wedding Atelier. She’s done the work, questioned the rules, and helped others stop overworking for underwhelming results.
Each episode cuts through the noise with conversations about profitable pricing, boundaries without apology, authority without hustle, and growth that leaves room for creativity, rest, and a life you don’t need a vacation from.
If you’re ambitious but done with burnout, performative busywork, and chasing success that costs you everything else, Often Ambitious is for you.

In this episode, we discuss the concept of price perfection for wedding photographers, challenging traditional notions of pricing based on self-worth.
Alora shares personal experiences of undercharging and evolving in the business, emphasizing the importance of determining prices based on the costs of life, business, and savings rather than competition or self-valuation.
The episode introduces the profit pricing calculator, a tool designed to accurately account for all expenses and income needed for sustaining the business and personal life.
Through detailed explanation and examples, the discussion covers the importance of knowing your numbers, structuring service packages strategically, and scaling beyond scrappy beginnings to a profitable, confident business setup.
