Mentoring

First off, let me just say that I am beyond humbled by the fact that you are interested in learning from me. As a completely self taught photographer, I truly believe in investing in yourself and your business, especially when it comes to education. When I first started out (and still to this day, if I am being honest), I scoured Pinterest, facebook groups, Youtube, google, online workshops, online photography classes, ect. for all answers to my photography related questions. I also made lots of mistakes and failed often, but with each step backwards was a lesson learned that helped drive me to dust myself off and keep at it.

I am so excited to share these lessons with you and help you to grow as an artist and business owner. When it comes to my mentorships, I hold nothing back but these are a few common topics for discussion:

marketing your business successfully and finding your ideal clients

using Lightroom and photoshop to turn RAW images into works of art

using social media to your advantage while keeping it from taking over your life

getting the most out of your gear and truly understanding your settings

creating and capturing authentic emotions and connections during your session

and so much more.

I truly believe in full transparency and sharing knowledge that I have learned along the way in order to help other artists in this special little photography community that we get to be a part of. Just one warning, we WILL become great friends by the end of your mentorship.
