In this episode, we chat about:

• The benefits of a business credit card - Earn extra points and make tracking your expenses easier

• Having a Pelican case to store all of your camera gear and then being able to transfer what you need to a smaller hiking bag for shoots

• Bring a tech kit to organize cords, hard drives, and chargers to prevent forgetting essential items, and use a power strip to charge multiple devices

• Using a wall calendar to avoid overbooking yourself

• Stick with the same companies, whether it’s the airline, hotel chain, and rental car company so you can accumulate more points
