About The Program and Packages
My learning packages are designed to meet you where you’re at, whether you’re just picking up your camera or looking to refine the way you photograph people. Together, we’ll slow things down and focus on seeing light, moments, and connection more clearly, so you can shoot with confidence and intention instead of second-guessing yourself.
You’ll gain hands-on experience in natural direction, working with real people, and creating calm, genuine sessions that feel easy for both you and your clients. For beginners, we’ll build a strong, supportive foundation, understanding your camera, light, and simple workflows while more experienced photographers can expect thoughtful refinement, real-world scenarios, and practical guidance they can apply immediately. No pressure, no perfection, just honest learning, meaningful growth, and a deeper trust in your eye.

Shooting & composition | Lighting | Post-processing | Finding your style | Social media & word of mouth | Working with clients
