Let's assume you are starting up a photography company - (in a world without Covid). Your photography company is similar to others who take photos of children, pets, and special evens like weddings, showers, etc. For the sake of this of this project - assume you are attempting to predetermine your expenses before really launching your business. Think about expenses that would be relevant for this type of business. Some basic facts:

1. You have a small studio to work from to take pictures of children, families, and pets

2. You will travel to locations to take photos for special events

3. You have been dabbling in this business for a while now but have not formalized it - you took pictures for friends and relatives - so you have the equipment - cameras, backdrops, etc. so equipment that is not used up (such as film) is already taken care of
