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

Hi Paige, why did you pursue a creative career?
It first started with my husband placing a camera in my hands and said “you could probably do more with this than me.”

I began taking photos preparing for my second born son. I just wanted him to have really nice baby pictures. As we got more creative with our shoots, people began asking me to take their kid’s photos or capture a special moment in a family.

I loved the feeling of providing memories that will be cherished for generations. I realized that I had a positive impact on every person that crossed my path and I just wanted to continue to spread that joy.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Fresh Start Talent Academy stems from a safety net that was never there before in the industry. It provides education, support, and opportunities that best fit each person on board.

We are unlike any other agency out here. We care for each of our members and put their personal goals first. We work around the schedules and hardships that one may have going on. We offer a nurturing environment while the talent discovers where they fit in at.

It was not easy to get to where we are today. We are still learning and building. It comes with a lot of lessons that were learned. Above all, it takes spirit and willingness.

The only thing that pushes us through our challenges is a drive. A drive to succeed and know that this will pass. No problem is too big for us to handle.

We have learned to be thorough through all communication and listen to the opinions/concerns of those around us. That every situation calls for a different reaction and method of problem solving.

We want the world to know that your dreams are possible if you work hard enough for them. Nothing is out of reach.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
The person that deserves a little extra credit in my journey is of course my husband! He saw something in me I never knew was there before.
