In 2025, you have options for online photography education — and in the 15 years that I've been teaching, I’ve learned that it’s not only about what you teach, but how you teach it.
The Collective is a membership-based program that brings new, educational content from not only me, but other industry creatives and business specialists.
Inside the Collective you'll find hours of video and fresh faces each month that will grow your photography and your business with the most relevant teachings around!
Whether you're a seasoned photographer looking to make your next big move or just stepping into the industry, the Collective has resources for all walks of photography and can launch you into your dream business for only $35 a month! Get ready to change the game and exceed your goals!
Whether you're looking for a photographer who will not only photograph you, but truly see you and your loved ones, or you're a photographer who has had enough of other educational programs and mentorships who shuffle you through the same tired programs...you'll find a truly personalized experience right here. I don't believe in surface level interactions - I pour my heart into everything I do.
What I do is more than a business, its a community full of real moments, real humans and real connections.
Starting in 2024, the Collective began including a monthly live video! These can look like Q&A sessions, live editing, or demos! These live videos are always recorded...so if you can't watch during the action, you can still catch up later!
The best way that I've kept from being stagnant? Both by connecting with other creatives who aren't necessarily in the same area of photography I am and making sure I'm paying attention to what the brand new photographers are doing!
Unlike other online photography schools, ours is updated monthly -- TWICE! One feature video that's professionally produced, from me or a guest educator. The other video is a recorded live video!
One of my favorite parts of the Collective is you guys. Connecting with photographers all over the world both inside the Facebook group and in the course comments!
Just wanted to shout out this collective and how much I love being a part of it. I joined almost two years ago, and can confidently say that I am LOVING the work that I am producing lately. From newborns to family sessions, I feel like my work is just scaling up so much in the past year honestly. During slow season, I am constantly rewatching videos, doing the homework, and applying this knowledge to each new session. This year is full of goals, and I cannot wait to watch them all happen!
Most of my videos in the Collective are going to be focused on either newborns, families or lighting...with a huge emphasis on lighting! Watch these sneak peeks to get a sense of the kind of education is waiting for you immediately when you join!
These are just the tip of the iceberg...we have over a hundred videos with new ones dropping every month!
