Multiple 1099s. Irregular income. Equipment write-offs. Home studio deductions. We handle the complexity of self-employment taxes for freelancers and independent professionals nationwide — so you can stay focused on your clients, not the IRS.
Book a Free 15-Minute Intro CallIf you’re self-employed and filing a Schedule C, we know your tax situation — and we’ve seen it before.
Our core niche. We understand shoot fees, licensing income, equipment depreciation, and the business side of a photography practice.
Multi-client projects, gear write-offs, home editing setup, and contract income from multiple sources.
1099 commission income, desk fees, continuing education, marketing costs — we handle the full picture for independent agents and brokers.
Graphic designers, art directors, illustrators, and other creatives with multi-client freelance income.
Knowledge workers, business coaches, and independent contractors with professional service income.
Podcasters, streamers, and digital creators with platform revenue, brand deals, and merchandise income.
Most freelancers are leaving deductions on the table. We make sure you’re not.
Multiple clients, platforms, and payment types all reconciled correctly — 1099-NEC, 1099-K, 1099-MISC, and direct payments included.
We calculate what you owe each quarter so you’re never caught short in April. No surprises, no penalties.
Done right. Whether you use the simplified method or actual expenses, we make sure it’s documented and defensible.
Camera systems, lenses, computers, software subscriptions — properly depreciated or expensed under Section 179.
Mileage, travel to shoots and client meetings, and related expenses tracked and deducted correctly.
SE tax is real and significant. We look at your income level and structure to determine whether an S-corp election makes sense for you.
Sole prop, LLC, or S-corp? We help you understand the trade-offs as your income grows — no upselling, just honest advice.
You know the price before we start. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices when your return is more complex than expected.
Questions don’t only come up in April. As a client, you can reach out throughout the year when decisions need a tax lens.
We built our freelance practice the old-fashioned way — one referral at a time, by actually understanding the business models of the people we serve. Today we work with photographers, videographers, real estate brokers, designers, and independent professionals from New York to California. Word travels in tight-knit professional communities when someone finds a preparer who gets it.
When you say “I got a net 30 from a client in California and a 1099-K from a stock platform,” we know exactly what to do with it.
You’ll know the cost before we start. Photographers don’t charge for extra edits without asking — we don’t charge for a more complex return without telling you first.
You work with a consistent team that knows your return. Not a rotating associate, not a call center. The same people who filed last year’s return are filing this year’s.
Headquartered in Amityville, NY — with deep roots in the Long Island and New York City professional community.
We work with clients remotely from coast to coast — New York, California, and everywhere in between. Location is no barrier.
NYS licensed return preparer with nearly two decades of experience in individual and small business tax.
Replace this with a real testimonial from one of your photographer clients. Ask them to speak specifically to: how you handled their multi-client income, the flat-fee pricing, or how easy the process was.
Great spot for a real estate broker testimonial. Ask them to speak to: 1099 commission income, self-employment tax, or the ease of working with you year over year.
A third testimonial from any freelance/creative client. Ideal if it speaks to the ongoing relationship — “I’ve worked with Chris for X years” signals stability and trust.
Some clients come to us with everything organized down to the receipt. Others hand us a shoebox. Either way we’ll get your return done — but the organized ones save money, because we spend less time reconstructing their year and more time finding deductions.
We made it simple: log your income as it comes in, log your expenses as you spend, and at year-end share the file with us. The categories are already mapped to Schedule C lines. No accounting knowledge required.
Download the Free TrackerFree Excel file. No signup required.
Track every payment — client invoices, 1099-NEC, 1099-K platform income, and cash.
12 pre-built categories with dropdown menus, all mapped to the right Schedule C line.
Automatically totals income and expenses by category. Shows estimated net profit and self-employment tax note.
Run the summary tab each quarter to see where you stand. Share it with us before estimated tax due dates.
Self-employed filers are statistically more likely to face IRS scrutiny than W-2 employees — and the Schedule C is one of the most examined forms in the tax code. That’s not a reason to panic. It’s a reason to have your return prepared correctly the first time.
We flag which expenses require stronger substantiation and guide you on what records to keep — before the return is filed, not after a notice arrives.
There’s a real difference between maximizing legitimate deductions and taking positions that attract attention. We know where the line is.
If the IRS ever sends a notice related to a return we prepared, you’re not handling it alone. We’re a phone call away.
