The 12-Month Photography Mentoring Programme

I have myself paid for long-term business coaching…
it really does work!

Having someone holding me to account each month forced me to get the things I wanted to be done in my business – DONE!

Your Journey from Aspiring Photographer to Successful Business Owner

Starting or scaling a photography business can be a lonely and overwhelming road. It’s one thing to learn a skill in a weekend workshop; it’s quite another to apply those skills consistently, find your voice, and build a profitable brand in the "real world."

My 12-Month Mentoring Programme is designed for those who are serious about their success. It is a year-long partnership where I pull back the curtain on my 35 years of experience to guide, advise, and support you every step of the way. We don't just cover the technical and business modules; we build your career together.

Why Choose the 12-Month Programme?

While individual modules offer a "deep dive" into specific subjects, the mentoring programme provides the continuity and accountability that most photographers lack.

  • Complete Curriculum: You will progress through all five core modules - Camera Basics, Digital Workflow, Portrait Photography, Wedding Photography, and Business & Marketing—at a pace that allows for true mastery.
  • Direct Access & Guidance: You aren't just a student; you are my mentee. You have a direct line to my 35 years of "know-how" to help you solve problems as they arise in your business.
  • Portfolio & Website Reviews: Throughout the year, we will look critically at your work and your online presence, refining your brand to ensure it attracts high-value clients.
  • Accountability: It’s easy to let business goals slide when you're working alone. Monthly check-ins ensure you stay on track and keep moving toward your 12-month goals.
  • Significant Savings: By committing to your long-term growth, you receive the full suite of training at a reduced rate compared to booking individual modules.

A Manageable Investment in Your Future

I understand that starting a business requires careful cash flow management. That is why the 12-Month Mentoring Programme is designed to be as accessible as possible:

  • Reduced Total Cost: Enjoy a discounted rate for committing to the full curriculum.
  • Spread the Cost: Payments are spread evenly over 12 monthly instalments, making it a manageable monthly investment in your career rather than a large upfront expense.

Is this the right path for me?

This programme is for you if:

  • You are ready to transition from a hobbyist to a full-time or part-time professional.
  • You want to avoid the "expensive mistakes" that most new photographers make in their first few years.
  • You value personal mentorship over anonymous, pre-recorded online courses.
  • You are committed to doing the work required to build your own successful business.

The Result: A Fully Realised Photography Career

By the end of our 12 months together, you won't just be a better photographer - you will be a confident business owner.

You will have a professional-grade portfolio, a streamlined workflow, a solid marketing engine, and the technical mastery to handle any commission.

Most importantly, you will have the mindset and the strategy to thrive in this industry for decades to come.
