Hey there!
             

I'm so honoured you're here.

For years, I've poured my heart and soul into mastering the art and business of photography. When I started I had a newborn baby at home and another job. I had no money and a big dream! I bought my camera in instalments and put all my hopes that I would be able to pay it with my photography work and I did it. It was not easy! At the time I barely had time to edit my photos and create content on social media, but I gave my best and few years later I made the decision to change careers and go full time into photography. I couldn't be happier! It's been a journey of constant learning, experimentation, and ultimately, incredible success.

​

Recently, I've been humbled by the number of fellow photographers who have reached out, asking me to share my knowledge and create a formal mentorship program. This has motivated me and made me think that: it's time to give back!

 

It became clear that my journey could be a powerful resource for others. That's why I've decided to open my doors and dedicate myself to helping aspiring and established photographers alike reach their full potential.

 

I’ve been in the trenches, just like you!  I understand the struggles of building a sustainable business, honing your craft, and finding your unique voice. That's why I'm passionate about providing practical, actionable guidance that will empower you to elevate your craft and grow your business.

 

If you're ready to take your photography to the next level, I'm here to guide you. With my experience, I can help you avoid common pitfalls, unlock new creative possibilities, and build the business you've always dreamed of. 

 

Let's embark on this journey together.

Build your authentic and successful business!

The photography world is brimming with talent, and it's easy to feel lost or doubt your own abilities. Many artists, myself included, have experienced those moments of feeling 'not enough.' But I'm here to tell you, you are. Your unique perspective is your greatest strength, the very thing that will set you apart. I'm passionate about helping you uncover and amplify that voice, giving you the confidence to shine. I've designed four  mentorship options to guide you on this journey.
