    Review of the Course From a Student:

    "A top quality course with good advice from a pro. Ok, I'm not a pro in photo, but I really enjoy digging in the workflow of a pro that's well done (good sound, great video).

    Top quality in the narrative tone and facts. So, big thank you. And of course, I want more 8-)"

    Have a photoshoot coming up? Turn your clients into fans with less stress.

    Learn how to establish and maintain your value, even when first starting out.

    Run your business in a sustainable way.

    Avoid frustration, discouragement, and burnout.

    Know what you're getting into.

    Don't make common "newbie" mistakes.

    The preparation required before a photo shoot is just as important as the photo shoot itself, and the actions you take after a photo shoot carry equal weight, if not more, than the actions you took before the shoot.

    In this course, we cover the Preparation and Business Aspect of photography, such as:

    • Managing client expectations
    • Doing research before a shoot
    • Having the "money talk with your client
    • Having a solid contract that protects you
    • Effectively following up
    • The best ways to present your finished work
    • Gathering referrals for future gigs
    • Dealing social media crazed clients
    • and more.

    This course will walk you through the process of planning for your first paid portrait session, all the way to the post-shoot stage, when you're gathering important client testimonials and sharing on social media. Whether it be for a friend, family member, or complete stranger, there are basic steps you absolutely need to take in order to ensure that you are prepared for your shoot. Crush your first photo shoot without the common mistakes so many newbies make, and make more money in your photography business in the long run.

    This course will be especially useful to you if you're still relatively new to the game of getting paid for your talent, or even if you want to pick up a few tips.

    ***While a tip or two is mentioned here or there, we will NOT be covering the technical aspects of photography, like aperture, shutterspeed, ISO, etc. I really want to keep the course focused on the Best Practices of Running your photography business, which is largely overlooked by new photographers.
