Super Keen To Make This Work ft. Emma Maja
October 25, 2022 01:00 - 1 hour - 58.3 MBMeet Emma Maja — our Australian gal (who joined us at a wildly early hour bc of the time difference!), who’s a freelance graphic designer, illustrator, AND dog accessory and apparel designer! Today we’re kicking off with another Harry Potter themed cocktail (AKA, a frozen midori sour with a twist called Polyjuice Potion), and Emma dives on in with us over an espresso martini. We got to hear how Emma’s product-based business has informed her service-based business, all the things she’s learn...
I Need To Hear This Song ft. Jason B. James
October 16, 2022 19:00 - 1 hour - 45.9 MBToday, meet Jason B. James — an incredible food and beverage photographer by day and DJ by night! We kicked off this episode with another Harry Potter-themed cocktail (we named this one Reparo — a gin cranberry sour inspired by Command Z, AKA the Photoshop shortcut that saves our lives). We loved hearing about how Jason transitioned from being a behavioral therapist to a photographer (AND a DJ) — and he told us how he describes his work as a little surreal, almost “like you microdosed” whe...
A Louis Vuitton Box ft. Halves Studio
October 11, 2022 03:00 - 1 hour - 55.1 MBWho knew Per Our Last Email would be getting into unsolved mystery podcast territory? 👀 Our friends Cierra and James of Halves Studio, an incredible lifestyle + studio photography hybrid based in Brooklyn, NY, joined us on today's episode with a rather mysterious story. I mean... it's not every day you get shipped a 6-7K Louis Vuitton purse... Anywho... we dove right in over a couple of Butterbeer cocktails as Cierra and James shared their journey in creating Halves Studio, what it's like...
Did Something Upload Incorrectly? ft. Four Course Media
October 03, 2022 14:00 - 1 hour - 63.3 MBIn today’s episode, you get to meet the incredible women behind Four Course Media, Rylee and Laura!

Bye), and Rylee & Laura contributed the cocktail for this month’s HARRY POTTER COCKTAIL THEME ✨ We dove in over a fernet and vermouth spritz cocktail named “The Leaky Cauldron” and talked about how they went from meeting in a Slack group for freelance photographers to starting their studio, which offers...
She Was Always... Somewhere ft. Megan Rizzo
September 26, 2022 19:00 - 1 hour - 44.6 MBToday we’re talking to the incredible Megan Rizzo, an amazing creative, artist, and illustrator who’s worked with tons of companies (hello… like MTV, Sony, and BET!) — and we’re kicking off with a delightful college-themed cocktail that plays off of Jungle Juice, called “Welcome to the (Freelance) Jungle.” (Megan’s a new mom who’s taking it a little more low-key than we are, so she’s enjoying an apple juice mimosa while we breathe in memories of frat houses. Sigh.) There’s absolutely nothi...
Can You Just Confirm If Those Are Your Photos Or Not?
September 19, 2022 22:00 - 54 minutes - 37.2 MBAnd we are BACK with a good ole’ stories episode… arguably our most audacious one ever, so get ready! College cocktail month is still going strong, so we’re sipping on the lovely Adios, Mother****** that we’ve aptly renamed A Magical Freelancer, and kick off telling you guys about the ~audacity~ of a company who wanted to buy our images for $15 each. Love it. But, we digress — because the stories we have this week are INSANE. First, we hear from a listener whose client simply could NOTTTT ...
They Kept Calling ft. Lina Cordero of Onlychild Design
September 12, 2022 22:00 - 1 hour - 51.7 MBToday’s episode kicks off with Lina Cordero of Onlychild Design, a branding and design studio, and we’re OBSESSED WITH HER… as you’ll be able to tell in this ep. 🤩 We’re continuing our theme of college cocktails this month (much to Elle’s distaste LOL), and drinking jager bombs we’ve called “Bomb Dot Com” — an ode to feeling of having amazing projects you’re proud of — and slightly wishing we were drinking palomas like Lina was. But, we digress. Lina talks about how and why she started Onl...
I Was Trolled ft. Marina Williams
September 07, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 50.6 MBImagine getting trolled for a year and receiving not one but SEVERAL inquiries by someone pretending to be Lady Gaga... 😅 Wellllll... you can stop imagining because it *actually* happened. To whom you may ask? None other than the ~fabulous~ Marina Williams. We're over here pinching ourselves because we got to chat with one of the sweetest and most talented creative photographers in the industry. Not only does she create stunning work but she's not afraid to share what she knows via all of ...
The Plumber Did The Work
August 29, 2022 21:00 - 1 hour - 41.9 MBOn this week’s episode, we’re shakin’ it up with a good ole’ discussion topic… CONTRACT CLAUSES. But, before we dive in over key lime martinis (that we’ve named Offlime, because… #catchy), we get really, really real about the burnout and the exhaustion we’ve been feeling this past year — caused by the pandemic and by massive changes in our personal lives. We’re in this phase where we want to really focus on what’s important to us and what’s bringing us the most joy, you know?! We get a lit...
Small Time
August 22, 2022 20:00 - 40 minutes - 28.2 MBGuys, is there anything better than a stories episode?! NOPE — and get ready for this one! We’re still going strong with our OOO cocktail theme, and we kicked off this episode with a peach cocktail called “Less Work Mo Beaches” before talking about how we just recently celebrated 2 whole years of Per Our Last Email (!!!) and finished a Photography Bootcamp Adobe livestream that we had the time of our lives on! This stories episode is full of some goodies, starting off with a good ole’ fas...

Yeah... that's Lauren Jones for us! 💫 And she did NOT disappoint in this episode ya'll. Long story short, we had the best time chatting it up with her about all things creative freelance, Colorado, portrait painting classes, Per Our Last Email's 2nd birthday, and her incredible Adobe Live that was one of our favorite streams we've hosted to date. Lauren also ...
Let's Call Her Bill
August 08, 2022 21:00 - 1 hour - 41.6 MBWe’re back with a STORIES EPISODE! But, tbh, we’re only really halfway back — AKA, Arabela forgot to make the cocktails & we had to pause to, well… make them. If you needed an insight into what our lives are looking like right now, there you go 😂 We’re kicking off with a couple of tinto de veranos, a Spanish wine cocktail that we had literally every single day while filming our @domestika course in Spain. While we start sipping, we catch up by talking about Elle and her husband’s ~faux wh...
The Plot Thickens ft. Giulietta Pinna of Limonata Creative
August 02, 2022 02:00 - 1 hour - 50 MBThis week, we’re stepping into the creative world of Giulietta Pinna of Limonata Creative and Prop Up Shop. We’re chatting over some piña coladas, AKA "I Need A Vacation," a classic recipe that we just had to bring back for this month's OOO theme. Giulietta is an art director, prop and set stylist based in the Baltimore/DC area and to say that she's killing the game is an understatement. Not only is Giulietta an inspiration in the work she creates, but she's been doing some amazing stylist...
Paper Trail ft. Little Drill and Weekend Creative | Part 2
July 30, 2022 23:00 - 1 hour - 75.1 MBAnd, we’re BACK with part 2 of our 100th episode, feat. our BFFs at Little Drill! On this episode we’re diving in with James and Shelby’s most horrifying horror story — but we, of course, have to kick off with a random convo about Harry Styles and then how they’ve already been checking on their emails prior to this recording sesh and are already #bitter. Hence, the name of this episode's cocktail (which, reminder, are basil & lemon spritzes named ”Don’t Be Bitter”). James and Shelby’s story ...
Pleasure Based Billing ft. Little Drill and Weekend Creative | Part 1
July 19, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 80.8 MBGuys… WE MADE IT TO OUR 100TH EPISODE! 🥳🥳🥳 And, to celebrate, we’re bringing back our BFFs, James & Shelby of Little Drill, for a 2-parter episode (because, let’s be honest… if we didn’t split it up, you’d be listening to a 4 hour episode). This time, we’re both sharing an absolutely insane story over… …and the Weekend Creative fam (AKA, us) is up first. We’re diving in over basil & lemon spritzes aptly named ”Don’t Be Bitter,” which will make perfect sense once you hear today’s story. ...
We Crashed Into His Farm ft. Elise Swopes
July 11, 2022 19:00 - 1 hour - 53.4 MBOn this week’s episode, meet Elise Swopes — AKA, one of the sweetest, coolest chicks on the internet and an all-around amazing human being and creative. Elise is a whole vibe (she came on wearing a fuzzy orange jacket, orange clips, AND had an orange drink & straw — we love to see it), and we dove in with a pink grapefruit spritz cocktail named “Pink Outside the Box.” We talked a lot about Elise’s super unconventional journey, about graduating college late (she just got her degree, so cool!...
They’re Going To Burn In Hell ft. Josiah Goldsmith
July 04, 2022 14:00 - 1 hour - 65.4 MBThis week on Per Our Last Email we’re hanging out with graphic designer and artist Josiah Goldsmith! We jump right in over a cocktail we group-named “My Money Don’t Jiggle Jiggle, It Aperol” (LOL), and get to talk about all things British accents and South Korea culture with Josiah, who is — you guessed it — a Brit living in SK! We touched on a ton of topics during this episode, which is our very favorite kind of ep. From exploring creativity to the Korean design industry and everything in ...
5 Seconds Away From Making A Voodoo Doll ft. Jenn Shore
June 27, 2022 18:00 - 1 hour - 69.3 MBOn today’s episode you get to meet Jenn Shore, the badass behind design agency Shore Creative (and our triplet flame — she wore a jumpsuit that said “tipsy” during our interview. Iconic). Over “Grey Rocking” cocktails we dove into learning how to turn failure into success and all about Jenn’s journey as an entrepreneur. We also heard about how she wants to become a “freelance matchmaker” of sorts, which is fab. We also got to listen tons of great stories — with notes! — about client red fl...
Don't You Remember Me?
June 21, 2022 01:00 - 1 hour - 53.8 MBYou guys know there are few things we love more than a great stories episode, and we’re starting off this week’s with a bang (AKA… stories). We’re diving in over citrusy cocktails named “Can I Pay You With (Sun) Exposure?” and cuddling with Elle’s new dog Cooper, who says hello at the beginning of the episode. (Bringing light to the clients who ask to pay you in exposure, ya know?) In this episode we hear about a freelancer who ended up doing a 12-hour trial shift — ugh, unpaid, of course ...
We Made A Mistake
June 14, 2022 08:00 - 39 minutes - 27.2 MBYou know it’s going to be a good one when you hear us starting to throw out all of our best chicken expressions and puns. 🐓 Today’s episode is not like any regular episode… She’s a ~cool~ episode. (Mean Girls anyone?) And by cool, we mean… she’s a little different. 👀 We’re veering away from our usual format to bring you a little minisode where we catch up, share our honest thoughts about what it meant for us to take time off, how we’re managing post-break, our love/mostly hate relationshi...

June 07, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 52.7 MBOn this week’s podcast we’re hanging out with our IG friend turned pod guest, creative photographer and artist Suzanne Clements! We’re talking about alllll the things (and red flags) with grapefruit, cranberry, and vodka cocktails named “What a Breeze,” which is aptly named for the best kind of clients AND Suzanne’s Florida livin’. We dove in talking about Suzanne’s journey to photography and why she loves the kind of work she does before getting to hear about her insanely cool personal pro...
I'm Never Going To See That Money ft. Alex Baxter
May 30, 2022 22:00 - 1 hour - 57.7 MBAnd we’re BAAAAAAACK! On this week’s episode, we’re finally welcoming our hilarious Scottish friend Alex Baxter (whose accent we LOVE, as you’ll hear). We’re diving in over tequila guava nectar cocktails we’ve concocted called “You Guava Be Kidding Me,” AKA how we’re all going to respond to anyone who annoys us from now on. Alex has been a longtime IG friend and POLE star (we’ve shared a couple of his stories on the pod already, like a two-word response he got after sending a proposal: Too...
Revisiting Now Rachel, I'm Poor...
May 23, 2022 14:00 - 56 minutes - 38.9 MB… Honestly, there are no words. Do you all go and search for the weirdest clients ever, just to entice us? Are you forever in the pursuit of a good meme? Actually, don’t answer that. We can’t really “allude” to anything in this episode, without just blatantly calling it out. It’s a stories episode. There are mentions - nay, allegations - of instances of hormonal imbalances, 💩 clipart, “can you turn this word document into a website?” and Michael Scott Paper Company-esque set ups. Told you. L...
Revisiting I Could Have Made This In 5 Min ft. Elliot Ulm
May 16, 2022 14:00 - 2 hours - 92.6 MBIt’s true. @elliotisacoolguy. A very cool guy. A guy who runs a flourishing creative business, but a guy who isn’t very good at freelancing, nonetheless. Yeah, we said it. (only because he did 👀) In fact, Elliot is such a cool guy, he decided to join the coolest podcast on earth (that’s us), to discuss all of the incredibly important things about being a freelancer. You know, things like his love for Caramel Macchiatos, and our dialogue on lattes vs. french press, backyard kangaroos that’ll ...
Revisiting The Spoon Spiel
May 09, 2022 15:00 - 1 hour - 45.1 MBRemember that time you paid your rent in popsicle sticks? No? Well, what about spoons? Still no? Weird, because we could’ve SWORN that it was considered socially acceptable to pay for the important things in life with inanimate objects. Just like it’s okay to pay for creative work (i.e., photography) with anything other than money, right? *scream cough scream cough* Yeah so, someone had the audacity to attempt to reason with someone else that paying for work with their spoons was acceptable....
Sue Me For What? ft. Claire Xue of Moodelier
May 02, 2022 19:00 - 1 hour - 63.6 MBOn this week’s episode, we’re welcoming our longtime friend and fellow creative, Claire Xue of Moodelier! Over mezcal hibiscus sours we’ve named “Taking Care of Business” we dove in quickly to talk about everything from insecurities and old stories to enneagrams and Reddit. We looooove a tangent!

More Like The Rolling Stones
April 25, 2022 17:00 - 1 hour - 46.1 MBWe are the living embodiment of the “story time! WAKE UP!” TikTok sound this week, because we have some goooood stories to share… including some of our own! We’re pouring up a beer, whiskey, and shandy cocktail called “Feeling Dandy” and diving right on in with two different brands and sites who have hijacked the heck out of our images here recently and then absolutely destroyed them with some truly, truly #terrible Photoshop action. Ah. Nothing like the sweet smell of copyright infringemen...
You Can't Wear Shorts ft. Megan Galante
April 19, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 53.7 MBThis week, we’re so freakin’ honored to have artist Megan Galante on! We’re keeping with our beer month theme, and dove right into this convo alongside a half Guinness, half cider cocktail we coined “The DM Slitherer.” This episode kicks off with a little fangirling, a quick Anna Delvey tangent, and all things wine (we love an off topic moment, ok?!) — before we start digging into Megan’s journey. She’s such a cheerleader for others, which we LOVE, and it was so fun to hear about how she me...
You Should Get Paid For This ft. Keegan Evans
April 11, 2022 18:00 - 1 hour - 63.5 MBThis week on the pod, we’re diving deep with Keegan Evans, a photo and video content creator and educator (and one of our fav follows, always!). We’re drinking beer cocktails again, a la micheladas we’ve called “Chel-of-a-lada Money,” even though… Arabela isn’t a beer gal and Keegan went rogue with a mojito. The sacrifices we make for the pod. 😅 On this episode, we started with Keegan’s origin story as the founder of a high-protein waffle business, and how it led him to finding his true pa...

This one is a root beer float situation with chocolate ice cream (!!!), aptly named “Rooting for You.” On this episode, you’ll get to hear a wild medley of freelancer perfect storms, as you do. From a bizarre photo trip featuring kitchen rats an...
Red Flag ft. Alexis Jesup and Max Hoffman of Colors Collective
March 28, 2022 14:00 - 2 hours - 88 MBThis week, we’re sitting down with two of our pals, Alexis and Max of Colors Collective — a next-level creative content studio based out of Brooklyn, NY! We’re sippin’ mocktails turned, well… cocktails this week (sometimes you just gotta add mezcal), and we aptly named them “The Dream Client.” (Psst… you’ll understand why we added mezcal to a ~dream client~ once we get started on their story.) We were squealing-level excited to get Alexis and Max on the pod, and we loved getting to listen ...

March 21, 2022 14:00 - 1 hour - 52.7 MBGuys, let’s be real — the freelancer life is FULLLLLLL of stories. Like, all the time. And then some.

Today we’re pouring a delicious mocktail that we’ve named “Put in the Work” with alllll the De Soi… so pour yours, and settle on in! On this episode, we’ve got lots of stories — and then some.

We’re sippin’ mocktails this week thanks to De Soi — this one is named “A True Champion — and we dove right in with Juan in between sips. We actually found Juan when one of his insanely ~top-tier~ TikToks made its way to IG Reels, and we were so excited to have him on the pod. Plus, he’s literally walking proof that you do *not* have to have crazy prior experience to make big moves. He worked at Home Depot befo...
So She Called Them ft. Freelance Founders
March 07, 2022 21:00 - 48 minutes - 33.3 MBThis week, we’re chatting with Carolyn Bothwell and Kate Cervini of Freelance Founders.

Freelance Founders is a digital members-only community for creative and marketing freelancers from all around the world (AKA, our dreaaaam group, huh?!), and Carolyn actually started it as a pandemic passion project. We talked about how they’ve grown Freelance Founders, and we dove into their current FT jobs, to...
Free T-Shirts
February 28, 2022 16:00 - 46 minutes - 32.3 MBLet’s be honest… this freelancer life is WEIRD. Like, so weird. But, the weirdness makes it the coolest, too — and it’s why we live for a great Stories ep over here. So, come hang out with us over a mocktail that tastes just like Jamba Juice — “The Sweet Surprise” — and ring out our month of sweet drinks with us as we talk about all the things!

We’re drinking a mocktail called “When Life Gives You Lemons” on this episode, which aligned perfectly with Elle’s car battery dying AND our computers cutting off every 5 dang seconds. Woof. Plus, they cold-pitched us a la an iconic Jim vs. Dwight joke to be on the podcast… offish cementing them in Per Our Last Email history forever. So good. Mushaboom Studio is a twin-ow...
