Meet Evie Felts | Photographer

We had the good fortune of connecting with Evie Felts and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Evie, what habits do you feel play an important role in your life?
I think the most successful habit I have worked on cultivating is focusing less on my business and more on my brain space. Releasing perfectionism, letting go of the competition, and allowing myself to show up as an authentic and creative individual for me has been the most transformative step for my business. People are either drawn to or away from the energy I put off. And typically, people hire someone for so much more than just a product or service, they hire you because they trust you or are drawn to you. So ultimately, I believe that is responsible for any success I experience as a photographer.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I am a photographer that specializes in elopements. I get most excited about adventurous couples who want to explore new terrain with me! I got to where I am today because of a lot of friends and mentors who believed in me. It was not easy, because at first it felt like the market was already so saturated with people who do exactly what I do. But, along the way, I have learned that the people I am meant to work with will always find me. If I am showing up as myself authentically, I will attract my ideal client.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I would have them come in late April so that we could ski Telluride, bike at Phils World and paddle the Dolores River. The next could head to Durango, ski Purgatory, eat dinner at El Moro then get drinks at the speakeasy. One morning we would definitely eat at Absolute Bakery in Mancos and check out all the art shops too!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I have had several photographers along the way help me on my journey. Ashley Terry Photography in Ohio helped so much in the early years of my business. Jessica Craddock also helped me a lot with the mindset game!
