Valerie Lopez co-founded design studio CR-eate and Shoot My Travel, a global travel photographer marketplace with her business partner Camilo Rojas (who is in part 2). In this episode, which is our first, we talk to Valerie about passion, start-up perseverance and having a good business culture. Speaking to two entrepreneurs that have founded and actively run two successful companies was insightful as their thoughts on how to get started (their client lists includes DDB New York, L'Oreal and John Frieda to name a few) was jargon-free, encouraging and honest, with no shying away with how difficult and challenging it can be when you're building the foundations for your creative pursuit.
