Some of you are probably rolling your eyes at me right now! I’m embarrassed. I took a poll over a YEAR ago to see what you all wanted in the FINAL FOUR Mini-Guides! You all gave me amazing feedback and I was so excited to get them done and then…. wedding season happened. And then Conference season happened. And then the Consistency Course happened. Before I knew it, it was 2016 and I was coming up missing my Mini-Guide goal by ONE YEAR!! Oh it makes me mad just thinking about it!
However, I think that the timing was actually perfect because I needed this year to really nail down what topics would be a good fit for the Mini-Guide collection AND we have a fun surprise being announced later this week that will coincide with this Mini-Guide debut rather nicely!! It’s nothing too crazy so don’t get your hopes up too much but we’ve been doing some reorganizing over here and our hard work is finally done!!
So, the FINAL FOUR are complete and now we have a beautiful collection of 12 Mini-Guides and an incredible Mini-Guide BUNDLE that allows you to take over $50 off when you purchase ALL of them!!! These guides are full of some of my best content in all of these different micro categories! I have to tell you, I do have a few favorites!!! I LOVE the brand new “How To Execute a FIRST LOOK” Mini-Guide because it’s unlike anything we’ve ever done and the information can MAKE or BREAK how the first look unfolds for your couple! I also LOVE the Posing Evolution Mini-Guide! Fun fact, this mini-guide is by FAR the most POPULAR product in the entire store!!! Another favorite is the “15 Minute Bridal Party Portraits” Mini-Guide! We JUST had a wedding this past weekend where guests started arriving SUPER early and we had to cram in all of the bridal party shots into just a few minutes!!
Take a look at our FINAL FOUR Mini-Guides Bundle HERE and be sure to check out the ENTIRE COLLECTION of Mini-Guides HERE!!!
Life has a way of surprising us, doesn’t it? Over the last few months, I’ve been on a medical rollercoaster that I never saw coming.
If you’ve been following my journey, you know I’m always looking for ways to do life differently. Whether it’s in business, family, or personal growth, I’ve learned that stepping away from the norm often leads to the most profound transformations.
In today’s world, the idea of a “healthy home” can feel overwhelming. With constant information about toxins, processed foods, and environmental risks, it’s easy to feel defeated before you even start. So I’m sharing our journey and the small, impactful steps we’ve taken towards a healthier home.
Wedding days can be incredibly stressful for everyone involved. Photographers, brides, grooms, and guests alike often find themselves overwhelmed by the schedule and the numerous details that need attention. However, there are key “in-between” moments throughout the day that can be leveraged to create a smoother experience and better outcomes. As the photographer, you can calm the nerves of everyone there and capture their day beautifully!
This week, Michael is sitting down with me at the microphone to join me on the podcast! When we started our Acton Academy journey, we had big dreams and very little idea of the practical challenges that lay ahead. Today, in year three of running our own Acton Academy, Michael and I are thrilled to reflect on the incredible transformation we’ve seen in our learners, our community, and even our own perspectives on education.
Photography is an art that thrives on creativity and technique. If you don’t have the basics of lighting and posing down, this tip won’t work- but if you’re looking to elevate your style, this is for you!!
