132 Photography Tax Write Offs + FREE Checklist!

Hey photographer!

Here's a free tax checklist just for you! 

 

 

Are you looking for tax write offs so that you can make sure you've included everything on your expense sheet? Look no further! I'm going to go through some main tax categories that photographers often use to make sure you haven't forgotten anything!

 

Remember! All of these need to be BUSINESS expenses used for your PHOTOGRAPHY BUSINESS. :) If you have any question about whether or not something can be written off on your taxes,  ALWAYS consult with your accountant. Tax laws are ever changing so you want to make sure you're doing the right thing! 

 

We are pulling this from our Ultimate Tax & Audit Bundle! We have included over 400 tax write offs as a bonus guide in that product!
