Using Quickbooks as a Photographer

Sep 25, 2024

Are you feeling overwhelmed by managing your photography business’s finances? You’re not alone! Many photographers find keeping track of their numbers a daunting task.

But don’t worry—my latest YouTube video is here to help!

In this video, we dive into using QuickBooks as a photographer, an essential tool for streamlining your accounting and maximizing tax deductions. Whether you’re manually tracking expenses with a spreadsheet or looking to outsource bookkeeping, QuickBooks can save you valuable time and effort.

Here are five easy tips we’ll cover:

  1. Linking your bank account for automatic transaction updates.
  2. Categorizing expenses to ensure you’re claiming the right tax deductions for your business.
  3. Tracking mileage, so you don’t miss out on valuable deductions for your travel to shoots.
  4. Managing sales tax for seamless invoicing and compliance.
  5. Keeping track of 1099 filings to stay organized with contractors and freelancers.

Check out the video to learn how to organize your finances like a pro and make tax season a breeze! Watch now to get started!
