Welcome to another episode of the #MeetCoolPeople Podcast! Today, we had a meaningful conversation with Zoe Martin. Zoe is an amazing photographer and the host of the "Heart of North Texas" podcast. This episode covers so much more than just her career; we explore her heartfelt Legacy Project, designed to help others cherish and preserve their memories.
Zoe has a rich history in photography, drawing initial inspiration from Anne Geddes and eventually establishing her own studio. She moved to Dallas following her husband’s job promotion, which opened new avenues and connections in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Zoe’s deep commitment to her community shines through her podcast and her active involvement with local nonprofits.
Here are the key takeaways from our conversation:
- Personal Brand and Presentation: Both in photography and videography, Zoe emphasizes the importance of properly fitting clothes, involving photographers in outfit selection, and using techniques to enhance visual appeal through layering and background choices.
- Client Comfort: Zoe provides a comprehensive experience for her photography clients that includes relationship building, wardrobe consultations, and complimentary hair and makeup services, ensuring they feel comfortable and confident.
- Networking Power: Zoe firmly believes in the power of genuine relationships over transactional interactions. Networking, as she puts it, can open doors to unexpected opportunities through mutual connections.
- Nonprofit Support: Her podcast, "Heart of North Texas," aims to connect volunteers with nonprofits and encourage community contributions.
- Legacy Matters: Zoe’s Legacy Project, in memory of her sister, offers services like photo restoration and family history recording. This initiative underlines the importance of preserving legacies, not just as end-of-life projects but as a part of everyday life.

#MeetCoolPeople
We have this amazing technology that keeps us closer than we've ever been yet we're less connected than ever and have become slaves to our technology.
The same technology that was meant to be a tool to help us make life easier and be closer.
The #MeetCoolPeople Movement is to change that.
It's a reminder to put the phone down and pay attention to the people you're with right now.
It's a reminder that social media is there to connect and add value to the people of the world. Use it to Promote what you love, not bash what you don't.
It's a reminder to use that technology to reach out to someone that you can help and be there for them. Find out what they need right now and use your vast network to help make their day better.
It’s a reminder to thank someone for helping you out.
It’s a reminder to introduce someone you meet to someone you know can help them.
And it's a reminder that we can grow to amazing successes but not alone. It requires the help of others.
So surround yourself with people that make you better and make it your mission to #MeetCoolPeople!
Thank you again for helping spread the word and have an amazing day!
