15+ Photoshop Tutorials showing you basic-advanced retouching techniques SPECIFIC to product photography.
15+ behind the scenes photoshoot tutorials both in my home studio and out on location showcasing still life and model work! See how I light scenes and work with props!
Reduce the chances of your clients not loving your work or having to reshoot with my thorough and in-depth pre-production planning tutorials.
It's no lie that pricing product photography is a BITCH! You'll finally be confident in your pricing, learn the pros and cons between different pricing structures AND have access to my pricing calculator making it much more easy for you to price your work.
From day ONE you need a contract (even if you're doing free work). Download my contract template so you don't have to wonder about what to put in your contract. This is SO important!
It's not just about the quality of your work, but how well you can market yourself. I've NEVER run a paid ad for my business and I'll teach you how to organically market yourself online.
I'm a commercial brand photographer based in Brisbane. I worked in corporate for 5 years and having been made redundant and fired, I'm finally living my DREAM life shooting for brands and earning WAY more than I was working a 9-5.
In fact, my job has never been more stable working for myself. But I've worked my BUTT off to get here, and I'm going to help YOU do the exact same thing.
This industry can be hard to navigate. There are some things that have taken me months - years to figure out. And I wish I had a mentor when I started.
In my 5 years of experience, I've worked with my DREAM clients like Body Blendz, Bondi Boost, The Quick Flick, Hot Tools, Lust Minerals, Kopari Beauty, Avene, Klorane & HEAPS more.
I've been booked out with work since JAN2018, so I know a thing or two about how to run a sustainable & profitable photography business.
I can't wait to teach you EVERYTHING I know to help you find success in your photography biz.

👉 How do I price my services?
👉 What do I put in my contract
👉 How do I actually book clients? (I legit thought there was some magic formula
👉 How do I achieve this particular type of image? What lighting do I need for it?

👉 Where do I get that prop from? I've looked EVERYWHERE!
👉 How do I attract a higher paying client?

🙌 I Want In!! 🙌This is Stephanie's incredible transformation after watching the Photoshop tutorials inside the course. Even if you don't have the best lighting, you can do A LOT inside of Photoshop to really elevate a photo and make it POP! Instead of spending hours searching on Youtube on how to do something, everything is right at your fingertips inside the course.
This will be a safe space where I will be offering my ongoing support to be there to answer ANY questions you have along your journey as well as to provide further training when I feel my students need it.
There will be questions you need to ask that only another photographer will be able to answer for you. No more trying to figure out the answer for yourself or spending hours googling it.
You'll make friends with other photographers who are in the same space as you to gain feedback on your work or quote before sending it off to a client, to rant to when you have a stressful situation, and to BE THERE to SUPPORT you.
I can't emphasise enough how IMPORTANT it is to build a support network around you.
It sure is! You can rewatch the tutorials over and over again at your own pace. AND all new content I add is completely FREE to you! It's the course that truly keeps on giving so I can help you grow your photography business long-term!
100%!! If you're in your first year of photography (or someone who hasn't even started yet), this course WILL give you all the foundations and knowledge you need to start getting paid for your work. Essentially, this course teaches you how to Become A Brand Photographer!
Yes! When you join Become A Brand Photographer, you'll have access to the private Facebook group where you can post your work and ANY other questions you have and get feedback and answers along the way from both myself and all the other students. It's an incredibly supportive and safe place where there are NO silly questions!
All the equipment, styling and editing tutorials (which is basically half the course) WILL benefit you, yes! Of course, there is a lot of photography education inside the course which may not apply but it will still give you great insight into this industry especially if you're working with other photographers.
It depends what you need answers to... If you're a wedding/portrait/family photographer, the product world is VERY different (I know because I used to do personal branding photography). Not ALL content in EVERY course we purchase will be NEW information. But it's those nuggets of wisdom that help us put the puzzle pieces together so we can get to that next level of business. I would recommend to firstly read the curriculum outlined above, and then please email me at [email protected] if you're still unsure.
This offer won't be around forever. Remember, the best investment you'll ever make is in YOURSELF! Growth won't happen in your comfort zone.
