My older machine does have a graphics card already in but it’s old now.
My older system is
Intel i5-4460 Quadcore.
12GB Ram
EVGA 600W B PSU
MSI GTX 970 4GB

Without knowing exaclty what model you have, looking on line seems to suggest you will have one 16GB stick of RAM and should be able to upgrade to 32GB.
Either add another stick of the same/similar or get a matching pair, that is up to you.

You have been given similar advise on your previous graphics card thread. Also previously asked to confirm cables and pictures of system to help with upgrades.
Looking at you website (looks great and with great quality photos) considering your Equipment reviews of camera and lens worth over 3k > i would say its probably time to invest in your business and research and build a medium to high quality Editing rig without.
I would suggest posting a thread on https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/community/new-to-pc-gaming-upgrade-advice.172/ state the purpose of the new build , apps being used, how long you would realistically want it to last without needing upgrades.
Having a good reliable and fast editing rig will reduce your editing time meaning you can focus more on taking the pictures and marketing/selling so would be a worthy investment

It also seems to be able to handle my casual

It wasn't an issue once, but the updated versions use the GPU a lot more and unfortunately there's a dearth of meaningful benchmarks so it is hard to know what GPU is needed/to recommend.
