Last year, the day before Christmas, I lost my job as a product photographer for a major Danish brand house.
3 months earlier me and my girlfriend had just bought an old farmhouse with a piece of land. We fenced in the property and now run a successful doggy daycare and boarding.
Photographing the dogs during their stay boosted our Facebook page and we haven't spent a single dime on external marketing. The owners love the pics of the pups and some even book pictures with the regular boarding reservations.
We are now able to stay in our house and the business is doing great. Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me!
