How to Make Money Being a Portrait Photographer {Mentoring Program}
So you want to make a bold career move & join the portrait photography community?
we love to see it! & I welcome you with open arms.
for many years, clients & photographers from all over have reached out about my mentoring them through their photographer journeys. & that makes my heart burst out of my chest with glee & I am opening up my calendar & my space to walk alongside you on this journey!
I found that through my own endeavors of getting to where I am today in my career, I loved working & learning from photographers I admired & I needed to learn in a way that I could absorb the information, refer back to every nugget of knowledge I’ve accumulated along the way & when needed, have unlimited guidance when it came down to it.
I created this program with YOU in mind; the you that wants to take the leap but you’re scared of where you’ll land. the you that’s afraid of how you’ll even measure up or how you’ll get clients that believe in you enough to hand over their hard-earned cash. the you that I, myself once was back then.
I have been a portrait photographer since 2012, I started with a simple point-and-shoot camera & using only free online editing software on my already ancient laptop I had from high school. I started with nothing but a strong belief in myself & only the gear that I outgrew before I could afford anything more & have built a thriving business, a solid brand, a community of photographers & clients that I adore on a professional level, & lots of meaningful, treasured friendships along the way.
I cannot WAIT to share all of the secrets {& painful lessons} I’ve learned along the way so that you have a beautiful launch &/or exponential growth with gorgeous imagery & the confidence to be as successful as your wildest dreams.
We will be digging into every single topic in depth, in person or via zoom, to ensure you get the absolute most out of this program! We can meet once, or as often as you feel you need {or wish! I looooveeee coffee dates talking shop with likeminded creatives!} As well as an opportunity to shadow me in a session so you can see how things flow in real time with real clients.
