Today we’d like to introduce you to Kristin Ratcliffe.
Hi Kristin, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Well, my photography journey started after I received my first job after undergraduate school. I was employed as a case manager for a non-profit organization serving individuals with persistent mental illness and substance use disorders. Originally, I began photography as a hobby, coping mechanism, an outlet for me to destress after many hours of demanding and complex work. Over the years I have developed as a photographer by creating memories for others to cherish forever. Photography has encouraged me to become more creative and innovative. Today, Millennial Images and Media, LLC continues to build clientele and provide quality services to our clients. Our goal is to continue to expand and offer additional services such as; videography, DJ services, and more.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Entrepreneurship in photography comes with a host of challenges. Rewarding challenges, but harsh challenges nonetheless. There have been many challenges I have experienced as I am sure many others have as well. Establishing a brand, creating content, balancing work and personal can all be challenging at some point. We continue to stay abreast of developing and trending topics to increase our exposure. Keeping a business profitable is a challenge no matter how many years you have been in business.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?

Before we go, is there anything else you can share with us?
Can you talk to us a bit about happiness and what makes you happy?
While happiness has many different definitions, to me, it is described as feelings of joy, satisfaction, and fulfillment. Happiness for me is giving time, energy, and attention to people and things that are most important to me; such as family, friends, career, and health (spiritual, emotional, and physical). I enjoy traveling with family and friends creating special moments. In addition to photography, I am a clinical social worker and therapist. Most importantly, maintaining good health creates a foundation for happiness. My grandmother always shared with me, “take care of your body and it will take care of you.”
