The Wedding Photographer: Tracking Business Mileage & Expenses

Name: SandraProfession: Freelance Wedding PhotographerSandra lives in Portland, Oregon where she's a well-known wedding photographer. She just recently booked a client for a beach wedding in Seaside, OR over 80 miles one-way from her studio.In addition to the wedding event, she also has the reception event located back in Portland that she must also shoot the next day!This wedding event is a 2-day, 1-night trip that she will bill out at $2,000 even. Sandra has agreed to cover her own expenses, so the only cost to her client is $2,000 - the rest Sandra will have to deduct as expenses.Thankfully, she has Everlance to help!The morning of the event Sandra will load up her gear and make the drive to Seaside from her studio in Portland, where Everlance will begin to track her mileage the moment she drives to the second she finishes.Sandra drives straight through to Seaside and parks at her hotel. She looks at the Everlance app and notices that she drove 82.5 miles, and the total deduction (based on the 2018 IRS Standard Mileage Rate of $0.545/mile) was $44.96.
