it’s going to stay, at least for a while.  Workshops are awesome because we cover SO MUCH information in such a short amount of time. It’s tough sometimes to squeeze it all in but what I offer workshop attendees is my knowledge that I have spent almost 4 years gaining.  I’ve attended workshops of my own over the last four years and I’ve shot over 80 weddings and so workshops are my chance to allow other photographers to get a HEADSTART.  By sharing information that took me 4 years to learn, these attendees are making HUGE strides in their businesses at a rapid pace. Workshops are WORTH IT…. and I’m going to continue to offer them. However, there are somethings that just cannot happen at a 8 hour workshop with 18 attendees… and that’s one on one time with each photographer.  I’m so busy making the WORKSHOP happen, I can’t sit down with everyone and coach them on their next steps and give them individual advice.  That’s not what a workshop is for….and I realize that some photographers would benefit MORE from a more intimate setting where I can  critique and coach….so..without further adue….I’m introducing COACHING SESSIONS!  What is this you say? Well let me explain….

I know several photographers that offer mentoring sessions and while my COACHING SESSIONS are going to be very similar, I don’t think the name “Mentoring” is the best description for what I’m offering.  I dont’ want other photographers to be mini “Katelyn James”s or even approach business EXACTLY the same way I do….. I want to help COACH other photographers to be the BEST version of themselves!  Something that I have really LOVED helping people with in the past is what I enjoy most about MY business… and that’s BRANDING, MARKETING and creating a STYLE of my own. So whether you’re a photographer that’s struggling with your image style/quality, or your branding… or your online presence… a coaching session may be ideal for you! Now, instead of meeting one-on-one…. I’ve added a little spin to this. I will actually be meeting with two photographers at a time….. and there is a good reason for this…. 1. It breaks down the cost, 2. I will be able to teach and shoot head shots simultaneously and 3. You’ll be able to learn from one another’s strengths and weaknesses.  Here’s the break down of a coaching session:

What I love MOST about hosting workshops and TEACHING are the relationships I get to build with other photographers in the industry. Coaching sessions will allow me to get to know two individuals on a personal level once a month and I’m SO EXCITED about this!!  If you’re thinking about investing in this, here are somethings to consider! :

.

–  This will be FUN…. but it’s not a hangout sesh… we’re going to WORK… HARD!! You’re investing money and time into this and so I want you to walk away with as many proactive steps as possible!!

.

–  You’ll need to take time to prepare before hand. Gather branding materials you already have or ideas of what you are dreaming of.  This is NOT a design session. I won’t be re-branding your business and designing logos:)… but I will be helping you cast a VISION for your business and what the next steps should be to get to the next level.

.

– Those interested in a coaching session are most likely going to be the go-getters… the photographers that REALLY want to see a change happen in their business…. so if you’re sitting on the fence, decide to jump off:)
