Mentoring

You’re ready to level up your business.

And I’m ready to show you the good shit.

Picture this for a second:

βœ… You start feeling GREAT about the direction your business is heading πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

βœ… Things start to make sense with tangible action items ready to tackle

βœ… Clients you’ve always wanted to book start showing up in your inbox

βœ… Your confidence is through the roof on elopement days (because you know what you’re doing!!)

βœ… You can’t wait to impress your next client with the improvements you’ve made to your client experience

sounds pretty stellar, right?

Hey photog’!

I’m Van, a full-time elopement photographer who’s been shooting for 18 years. I shifted my focus to 100% elopements in 2019 and never even considered looking back.

I spent so many years (hint, about 11 of those years of experience) trying to build a business that would sustain me, and nothing was working. Photographing weddings was always so stressful, family sessions were not my thing, and even product photography was boring. Once I committed to only photographing couples who wanted to get married outdoors, everything clicked for me.

I got to combine my adoration for being outdoors with my love for photography and it all started to make sense.

And I have a feeling you’ve had that realization, too.

And I’m so, SO ready to share how to get to that place where you can feel amazing about your business, start getting dream clients, and spend more time doing what you love.

β€œBut what will we even talk about?!”

I’VE GOT YOU.

Here are just some of the topics we could go over:

  • How to strengthen your voice, brand, and identity to be 1,000% you (but also what couples are looking for)

  • A deep dive into your online presence and how to position you as the expert

  • Workflows that start the second an inquiry hits your inbox and don’t end until you’ve delivered the final gallery and gotten a glowing review

  • Sorting through which images to show off on social media and your website

  • Tweaking your website to be overflowing with knowledge without being too wordy, engaging and compelling, and keeps potential couples looking through your content

  • Upgrading your client experience to set you apart from other photographers

  • Honing in what services you offer, what your strengths are, and how to showcase it

  • How to get emotional, honest reviews from past couples

  • All things pricing, packages, and add-ons

  • Designing an elopement day that isn’t just a ceremony and a few photos (and getting couples to book that experience!)

  • What a typical elopement day looks like for me, including what I carry in my bag and how I get my couples comfortable in front of the camera

  • How to stay cool, calm, and collected through the stressful parts of being a business owner

  • General business questions that you never knew who to ask

  • A sounding board to bounce ideas off of!

Do those sound like some things
you could use help with?

Just one glowing review:

β€œI’ve been a photographer for the past 6 years, but decided to seriously sit down dive head first into my business about 2 years ago. Coming to Van to comb through my website and walk through my current workflows was not only incredibly educational, but she was SO hyped for me and helping to make my business successful the entire time! She’s continued to cheer me on since then and never holds back from sharing her knowledge and experience with me.”
