Is to help portrait photographers to go from broke and burnt-out, to being profitable and running six-figure studios with ease and balance.
From broke single mama - to Successful studio Owner
From broke single mama - to Successful studio Owner
When I quit my job in 2012 - I had no idea how to run a business. I had a camera, a tiny shared rental studio space - and a dream.
Two years later- I made the tough decision to become a single mama with my 15 month old son.
All of a sudden - my little business HAD to provide for us!
Over the next few years I'd learn how to simplify business and systemise everything so that my studio ran as easily as possible.
I hired an amazing team who helped me bring my vision of my dream studio to life, and I built a business that truly worked for ME - not the other way around!
In 2021 it was time to follow my heart into coaching, and I now had a valuable asset that I could sell. My studio sold easily and quickly and allowed me to focus all my attention on helping other photographers to build their dream studios.
It wasn't an easy journey in the beginning of my portrait business, and many times I was sure I would fail. I battled with trying desperately to juggle motherhood and a business, with mummy-guilt and with burnout.
I cried A LOT, and more than once, found myself crumpled in a heap, my head on my knees, wondering why it was so damned hard. I was filled with self-doubt about my own worth, my pricing and my business in general.
Many times - I just wanted to quit.
If others had achieved success - so could I!
If others had achieved success - so could I!
I knew one thing to be true and I refused to quit.
You see, I knew that others had achieved what I dreamed of doing - then I could too!
I just had to learn how to do it myself and in a way that supported my son and I - not only financially - but also with more balance.
I learnt to simplify my business so that it could run profitably and streamlined.
I implemented systems, people and marketing to grow my studio.
I attracted an amazing team who felt more like family than employees.
We had a constant stream of ideal customers.
I worked just a few hours a week and had more time with my son.
Most importantly- I was finally getting to be the mum I always dreamed of being.
A new view - looking at business and life holistically
A new view - looking at business and life holistically
I learnt the hard way that hustle and grind are NOT sustainable ways to grow a studio because there's no point having a great business - if it doesn't also support a great life!
I help photographers not only become profitable - but to do so in a way that allows more time, more energy and more ease.
A business that works for YOU - and not the other way around?
A business that allows you to balance family with career - that you don't have to chose one or the other!
A studio that is simple to run, profitable and streamlined?
