Education for Photographers

Hey Photographer.
Want to pick my brains? Let's chat.

I've been doing this a while and I've learnt a lot along the way.

It's pretty overwhelming starting out or maybe you just want to get a few things settled because you've discovered that running a successful photography business involves WAY more than just taking pictures. I've been a working photographer for 15 years across the family, newborn and wedding space. I'm am a logically minded creative with a solid grasp on the 'boring admin' side of things. I have a background in graphic design find editing fun - but working with people is definitely my favourite part of the job. I believe that knowledge sharing is one of our greatest assets in this industry. You are welcome to pick my brains about whatever you like. This might include:

  • Setting up a photography business properly - contracts, ABN etc
  • Business tools - CRMs, gallery delivery
  • Photography gear - cameras, lenses, computers, software, fun extras
  • Client management - Client contact, emailing people, tricky situations
  • Photoshoots - Timelines, indoor/outdoor tips, getting reluctant clients on board, having a good time, managing big groups, composition and keeping creativity alive
  • Editing - tricky lighting, consistency, batching, AI tools
  • Positioning - your brand, how you show up
  • Online presence - Websites, social media, e-news
  • Work/Life Balance - Parenting and work
  • Portfolio feedback
  • Being an introverted photographer
  • Support and Inspiration - How to find friends in this industry
  • Ethics - Running a more ethical business and thinking about photography's place in society and it's impact on the world
