Are you ready to elevate your boudoir photography journey? My mentorship program is designed for photographers at all stages—whether you’re just beginning or are looking to refine your craft and business strategies. With over a decade of experience, award-winning images, and an award-winning business, I’m passionate about sharing the lessons I’ve learned to help you build a successful and fulfilling career.
 

Why Education Matters, ESPECIALLY In Boudoir
 

Boudoir photography is about more than just beautiful images—it’s about empowering clients, understanding their stories, and creating a safe space for self-expression. That’s why education in boudoir is essential for any photographer looking to grow both artistically and professionally. Through this program, I’ll help you navigate every aspect of boudoir photography, from technical skills to the psychological approach needed to connect with and empower your clients.

After personally investing thousands in workshops, conventions, retreats, online guides and coaching programs, I've come to realize that the best learning environments are personalized. Instead of heading to a convention hoping for a nugget, this is your chance to ask the burning questions and see behind the curtain. I'll help you brainstorm ideas for what you can implement to help your business grow or we can focus on the artistic side where we'll go through posing, lighting, client interactions, and how to help style your clients-- every body shape!
 

No Questions Are Off-Limits
 

We’ll dive deep into the topics you care about most, including:

• Business Mastery: Pricing, authentic branding, marketing, and client experience

• Posing & Lighting: Flattering every body type and mastering dynamic lighting

• Psychology of Boudoir: Building trust and helping clients feel confident while understanding and knowing the responsibility that comes with being a boudoir photographer

• Editing & Post-Production: Achieving rich, vibrant tones and dynamic images

This is your chance to gain tailored guidance—whether you want to discuss the intricacies of your business model, pose techniques, lighting setups, or anything in between.
