Paying your Taxes if you Didn’t Save

Mar 19, 2025

Tax season is here, and if you didn’t set aside money throughout the year, you might be feeling a little panicked right now. You’re not alone—many photographers get caught up in running their business and forget to save for taxes. But don’t worry! There’s still a way to get through this without draining your bank account.

In my latest YouTube video, I’m breaking down exactly what to do when you find yourself in this situation. You’ll learn:

✔️ The first step to take when you realize you owe taxes (hint: avoiding it won’t help!)
✔️ Why filing on time is crucial—even if you can’t pay right away
✔️ How to set up a payment plan with the IRS (it’s easier than you think!)
✔️ Quick ways to bring in extra cash to pay down your tax bill
✔️ How to make sure this never happens again next year

Paying your taxes if you didn’t save doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With a solid game plan, you can handle your tax bill and set yourself up for success moving forward.

Don’t wait until the IRS comes knocking—watch the full video now and get ahead of the game!

XOXO – Heather
