It's one-part education, one-part community & support,
...and all parts INSPIRING!

 

Look ...

we've all been there.

Feeling uninspired.

Stuck in our business.
(hello spinning wheels!)

Sessions that have gone completely sideways.

And we've all had moments when the mean person inside our head tells us we aren't good enough.

You're the only one

with the power to improve your art and transform your mindset, but... we have the tools and community to help.

You don't need to force or push things.

All you need to do is keep yourself open to learning. Be willing to put yourself out there.

And commit to taking action (even tiny baby steps!)

The Academy is designed

to help take you out of overwhelm and into inspired action.

  • You will become a better artist
  • You will clear mental blocks that might be keeping you stuck
  • You will rediscover the joy of photography

As a result,

you'll create art you love
(and get paid doing it).

When you combine art, business and mindset, they move together.

Let this be your new anchor.

The Academy will help photographers learn together, connect, and bring their best selves into the world.

Because running a photography business may not always be easy (or comfortable) but it IS always worthwhile.
