Mentorship for The Ambitious Wedding Creative
Personalized Guidance for You and Your Business
YOU’RE READY FOR MORE.
I know you’re tired of feeling like something’s missing, combating exhaustion or the feeling like you want to make a change, but you don’t know where to begin or what direction to take.
What used to feel like an isolating and confusing journey completely changed the moment I invited mentorship into my business. It’s my goal to do the same for you. To be your guiding light in what may feel like a sea of uncharted waters. I promise you, with individualized and intentional mentoring, we can make it to your desired destination and even beyond.
Personalized Guidance for You and Your Business
I believe support can come in many different shapes and sizes, which is why I offer mentorship opportunities in a variety of different mediums.

Think of this as an elevated business coaching and mentorship experience hosted over the course of four days. We’ll head to a hand-selected Airbnb in California that’ll foster the time and space for us to get into every aspect of your business, along with two photoshoots for you to refine your skills and build your portfolio.

Prior to your retreat dates, you’ll be asked to fill out a kick-off questionnaire and tell all. We’ll then connect on a call to hone in on our focus for the four days and to ensure your goals and vision are met during our time together.

At the end, my hope is for you to walk away with a newfound energy and clarity on a path ahead in your business that feels completely in tune with your purpose. You’ll also have a refreshed portfolio filled to the brim with new work that feels wholeheartedly yours.

What others Are Saying
“I gained so much confidence in myself as a business owner.”
I am so grateful for the time, energy, and knowledge that Emily poured into me. During my time with her I learned so much and gained so much confidence in myself as a business owner. Ultimately, what Emily became was my biggest cheerleader. She believed in me and helped me complete all the tasks that paralyzed me with fear in regards to my business. She believed in me even when I didn’t. Some of my wins from coaching were: redesigning my site and accomplishing practical things that spoke to the value of my business, finding my financial worth and value as a provider of a good, and helping me believe in myself.

“I’ve achieved goals I never thought I’d reach.”
When I first decided to do photography, I didn’t know anything about business, pricing, or how to market myself. I needed guidance on how to run a successful business and not get stressed and overwhelmed by it. Emily took the time to invest in me, and her encouragement has helped me achieve goals and dreams I never thought I’d reach. If you are having any doubts and are feeling discouraged in any way, Emily is 100% the person who can help guide you out of that season. She is so encouraging and really makes you want to grow and be better in your business.

“Emily's encouragement and support through our time together has truly launched my business to new levels".”
The advice Emily offered me during this coaching program helped encourage me to lean into a whole new direction for my business – a direction that resonates with my personality and creative style so much more than the direction I had been pursuing previously. I am eternally thankful for her perspective, ideas, support, encouragement, and friendship. If you're looking for a knowledgeable mentor to come alongside you and help take your business to new heights, look no further than her mentorship!

With nearly a decade of documenting love stories and mentoring creatives around the world, I’ve experienced the many wild and unexpected challenges in building a sustainable photography business. Like the time I overworked myself or lost an entire wedding hard drive, I’ve seen it all, and I’ve learned a lot along the way.
I believe you have something the world is waiting to see. An element that makes you and your business different from the rest.
I’m here to guide you every step of the way, telling all (really, all of it), to help you get re-inspired in your business, life, and overall direction.
